Success, so today was my first real kind of arranged film shoot, and to be honest I'm pretty pleased with how it all went. This was essentially the part 2 of the motion graphics shoot plan. I had been in contact with a few friends from home that I used to go out and ride bmx with and arranged to meet up and get some footage for the mini documentary. I originally planned on meeting up at the skate park baysixty6, HOWEVER due to the park for some reason being skateboard lovers the bmxers only get a few hours a week to ride the park, which didn't really fit the times that people were available. SO I had to look else where to get some shots and looked to they're local spot where they ride often that happened to be Hastings skate park and the source bmx bowl.

After riding about an hour of the outdoor park and one bike having a snapped chain we headed to the indoor park that is part of the source bmx shop where we could some new parts too! What an amazing park, it was built within a church hall with 2 bowls and a huge vert ramp at on end with the walls covered in ply for huge wall rides. (link of clips to be uploaded soon) Overall we got some pretty good shots considering I had a couple street riders in a park environment but at the end of the day we had some spare time to nip to my local outdoor park in Ashford where they came into they're own, it was where I got some shots of a completely different mood due to the light having disappeared and that's to be posted soon too, but until then that's all I have for today :)
