Our aim in the film was to capture the heart of Liverpool and see why is it that so many people from all corners of the world come to visit it.
This was a long and tiring day, we filmed for 8 hours none stop therefore apologies if there are spelling errors within this blog as I am writing it from my bed! I've just flopped down onto it as we speak!
Anyway, we went in rather apprehensive today wondering what it was we were really going to capture. We allocated roles; myself on camera, Emma on sound and James was the interviewer/camera operator.
The great thing about The Cavern is there are bands playing all day 2pm till 1am therefore we are cable to capture some really great footage of different bands/solo artists. Everyone was so helpful in letting us film and interview them today so it worked out really really well!
We were able to interview the manager of The Cavern who has owned it now for 20 years so this was extremely interesting! We also interviewed members of the public inside The Cavern of older and younger generations to get a feel from both. We were also able to interview the marketer for The Cavern who just so happens to be a brilliant performer too so we got quite a few of his songs in!
After being in The Cavern for 8 hours today, I must admit I really feel like I've learnt a lot! Not just about The Beatles of course, but the culture of Liverpool and I can now see just why it is that people flock here constantly. I just hope this comes across in our film...
As we were just about to leave we went over to thank the manager for being so kind and helpful with us today. He had a few by this time but none the less was very nice to us and even insisted we stay for a drink before leaving. This was a bonus as the drinks were on him!
A brilliant day today.
We are editing Monday for the final film to finished and in for 2pm, I cant wait to see it! It will be up on here next week so keep checking back!
Below is some photos i took throughout the shoot. Enjoy!
