Ladybird Action Sequence

8/7/2014

This was the rough cut of my 2 minute action sequence as part of the first term assessment on MA Wildlife FIlmmaking. It was all shot on one gloomy day in my flat in Bristol with a Sony FS700 video camera. A lot of slow motion (400fps for techies) was used to capture the speed that the ladybirds walk around, take off and fly.  
All of the ladybird actions actually happened. Originally I'd seen ladybirds walking up to the highest and most southerly point they could find, usually the coffee table, before taking off towards the window. That was what I wanted to show happening, however the ladybird regularly fell off the table before trying again, so I incorporated that into the video. Naturally, to get the right shots the ladybird needed some gentle encouragement, but none of my actors were damaged.
