On Saturday 25th October 2014, I along with Sergio, Ben and Lia set off to film an interview with the Isle of Wight based magician Luke Lamont; at the Wight Rock bar in Ryde.
After a few small hiccups with times and dates having to be re-arranged we eventually got the relevant permissions to film at the bar at 12.00. The original idea was to film slightly later and film some of Luke’s performance later on in a cabaret show in the evening. Unfortunately the cabaret show fell through and a party then booked the bar for three o’clock. This gave us a dilemma, but we decided to go ahead at an earlier time and try to get everything we needed before the party came in. With only around two and a half hours to capture the interview and some cutaways of Luke performing some of his magic, we were put under great pressure. But with the hard work of the whole team, I think, we managed to pull it off, getting plenty of material to put together a two minute, character led, documentary for one of our university, documentary unit, projects.
With myself producing, Lia directing, Sergio filming and Ben capturing sound, we all worked to the best of our abilities to get the job done. The footage has now been handed over to the other member of our group, Kelsey, who is going to edit the sequence together.
The hand in date for the film is Friday 31st October; so hopefully you should be able to see how it worked out very soon after that.
Finally I would like to say a huge thank you to the Wight Rock for giving us permission to film in their bar; It was the perfect location for what we were after. Also thank you to Luke Lamont, for agreeing for us to make a short film about his life in magic so far.
