In early March our class took an impromptu trip to the egg theatre, a small theatre that is part of Bath Theatre Royal. We went to recce the theatre in order to film a performance of 'A Midsummers Nights Dream' which was part of their two week Shakespeare season. Our lecturer Phil made inquiries about the sound, which was a smart move considering sound is often the main aspect of filming that is neglected. The egg theatre was small and well sound proofed which would work to our advantage.
We decided on using a Sony Z1 and placing it at the very back of the theatre facing straight at the stage and to use two handheld panasonic cameras to make up a mult-angle film shoot. At the time Balve, Reuben and Mike volunteered to be cameramen while Phil would be the sound recordist setting up a directional mic to record the sound.
