360 Filmmaking

Week 4: Filming

We also did our filming for our 360 projects this week. My partner and I filmed in the cafeteria, a classroom, the library, the stairs, and even a short scene outside. The scene outside seems contradictory as we are attempting to create a spaceship-like world within the LCC campus, however we thought a scene outside could be used as a dream for the main character – a dream of trees and the “outside world”, something they’ve never had a chance to experience.

The filming was actually completed quite quickly, as we found that moving shots were incredibly difficult to make. We did 6 static scenes of about 15-second long clips for each location. What was most difficult was perhaps finding the right angles so as to avoid things such as windows, but we had no issues using the 360 camera, and I frankly quite enjoyed getting to explore the campus with a different set of eyes; looking for scenes and interesting locations rather than just walking to class.

Here is a screenshot from one of the clips below:
