On the 17th March we filmed Jeremy on a visit to a local primary school in Rochester to give a few short seminars to educate the school-kids about some historical details concerning Kent's history. Along with a few artefacts brought in especially from the Guildhall museum.
We decided that it would be a good idea to have Ruby film Jeremy whilst I filmed the kids listening/interacting with him. Then for the next session with another class we would switch roles.
This proved to be a good idea as we were able to film their reactions in time to whatever Jeremy was talking about or showing to them. The downside was that Ruby and I sometimes got caught in the way of each others camera since we were often filming at opposite ends of each other. Despite this we managed to create a good flow of material and the kids were quite excited by Jeremy's seminar so we weren't too intrusive for them.
The day's session turned out to be quite a success, I can see a lot of great footage coming out of this and it was very easy to work in this environment. Especially as we had got filming permission for all the children so we could film in all of the available space necessary.
