Overview of filming in Cromer

We were supposed to arrive in Cromer around eleven, as we were supposed to be catching the train from Cambridge to Norwich at half-past eight. This meant we were supoosed to arrive in Norwich at about thirteen minutes past ten, then need to catch the train at thirty-six minute past ten to Cromer. After hopefully arriving at our final destination, Cromer at twenty-four minutes past eleven. 

However a member of our group couldn't catch the train to come to Cambridge in time to leave Cambridge at half-past eight, due to his train being cancelled. This meant we had to catch a later train. 

We finally arrived in Cromer around one o'clock. It wasn't exactly pleasant weather. It was cloudy all day. It was raining quite heavily and then stopped and started again and so forth. This meant we couldn't do as much filming as we had hoped. 

These are the pictures of the storyboard I had on my camera with us, as we did not have the storyboard themselves. 

Most of the shots we couldn't do due to weather conditions.

Above in the top left hand corner, is a long shot of looking down the pier with the sunset behind it. However there wasn't much of a sunset as it was really cloudy. All we could see was a pink streak in the bleak sky. In the top middle we have a shot of the lip syncing in the studio that we will do later. 

The top right hand corner, is a side view of the pier and me being the actress sitting on it. However we couldn't do this as the bottom part of the pier was blocked off. Instead we decided to do a shot where the camera is panning around me whilst I'm on the pier, looking out to the sea. This we thought was a good shot but doesn't really fit in to what other shots we have already. After a bit of thought we thought it would be a good picture for our digi pack. 

The bottom left hand corner is the same as the one below on the left of that picture, but is just a close up, so we could actually see what was on the post it. We were supposed to do stop motion, writing "HUMAN" in the sand. However do to the bad weather. 

We decided it was better to prioritized the shots of me running across the beach alongside the water edge. 

We also prioritized the shot of panning around me whilst I'm looking into the sea. As shown on our storyboard below, with a few pictures from Cromer beach.

This picture on the left is a shot of me looking out at the sea whilst someone is running towards me.

Another shot we prioritized was the close up of my feet being washed by the waves. This shot below shows how foamy the sea was when it was washing my feet.

Below is showing an extreme close up of my feet being filmed as the sea was washing them.

 After all this we decided it was boring to have the sea all the time as a background. We changed it up a bit by having a shot where I'm walking alongside a groyne. As shown on either side.

We didn't film skipping stones as the sea was too rough to do so and the wind didn't help.
