I spent the day filming in Battersea park and two days editing and colour grading this short film. The music is called Fairy Dance and is from the film Peter Pan and written by James Newton Howard. I would like to thank Phillip Bloom (www.philipbloom.co.uk) for my inspiration.
To achieve a more natural look, I used a telephoto lens to film people without their knowledge. This also had the added benefit of giving me a better depth of field.
The day started with people out enjoying a nice British summers day, and towards the afternoon it started to rain. Although it was raining and I did not have a rainproof cover for my camera, I decided to take shelter underneath the trees and bushes and continue filming. This gave me the chance to film some of the wildlife on the water and the green surroundings. I love the different shades of green and the combination of the sunshine and shade in the bushes.
