Filming of Ruth in Town

We filmed the last part of our video on location in Cambridge... we filmed Ruth walking through the streets and having a breakdown. We will apply effects to this footage using Final Cut in order to make it more interesting, and to convey the mental anguish of her character. We have lots of experimental footage; we filmed Ruth spinning around on a swing which we will speed up and blur, in order to make her stand out from the spinning background. We also filmed her standing in a crowd of people, which we will use as a time lapse. We will experiment using jump cuts and split screens when we edit some of the footage, to create interesting effects to convey her distorted reality.

Here are some photos from our filming on town:

And who says media filming can't be fun?!?!
