Techniques

We began experimenting with ways of achieving the first person perspective that we desired for the video, our original idea was to attach the camera to a helmet and film PoV shots, this concept is also used in the comedy programme “Peep Show”. We began testing this technique but we soon found we had little control of the camera and it didn’t look realistic. We replaced the helmet with another piece of equipment called a Fig-Rig which gave us control over the camera and enabled to put the camera at eye level to give us the PoV perspective we desired.
