Level 2 Cramba Performance

The Level 2 Creative and Media group had been learning Samba at the Junction for the past few weeks. They were due to put on a performance in Cambridge to help raise money for the Haiti earthquake. I thought I would film them as footage of them practising had previously been shot.

We went to the Junction where the Level 2 group had a brief rehearsal. I got a few minutes of footage as I felt this would be a good way to begin the Samba section in the Documentary. After this, we trekked down to Cambridge and set up ready for the Samba performance.

I filmed the Samba boards whilst the group were setting up. I then filmed their first performance from a range of different angles. From in front of them, to each sides and also from a distance so that you could see the crowd that were watching them. I did exactly the same for their second performance, which seemed to be quicker than their first one.

By the end of the two performances, my hands were completely frozen and then never stayed around to interview a few of the Level 2 group and also their Samba instructor. But I got a decent amount of footage, lasting around sixteen minutes. And the level 2 group raised around fifteen pounds for Haiti, which is a solid amount as they only played for around thirty minutes.

Now it comes to the edit...
