Before filming our advertisement, we knew it was important to organize everyone's roles within in the group. With our success from last years video - 'Parity', many roles remained unchanged. Last year I played the role of the murder victim, so once again this year I offered to play the protagonist in this years video. Chris was in control of camera 2 last year, however this now changed to camera 1 and was also set the role of director. Even though Haran and Sam worked on other A2 projects this year, Haran still offered to help us film and be in control of the slow motion camera. As Haran expressed a keen interest in the slow motion camera, as this was used for his A2 video, we decided Haran would be best suited to that particular role. Last year Sam edited our 'Parity' video, however this year neither me or Chris had little to none experience in this area. I offered to edit the majority of the video, as I was interested in using Apples iMovie software. On a regular basis I would show Chris my progress of the advert and he would help me experiment with different editing techniques and give new ideas to use. 


Now we had set the filming roles, we then needed to arrange a date for filming. As we all had media studies on a Wednesday morning, it was an ideal opportunity to film. We originally set a date of 15th February to start filming, however the week before it had snowed, therefore we changed our date to the week before - 8th February. We decided on this because we thought that the snow effect would emphasise the cold atmosphere when running.
