The Tregothnan shoot went really well :) We were faced with a slight problem when it started to rain, but I had gone prepared as I had purchased some tarpaulin earlier that morning. We were able to wrap the equipment up so nothing got ruined. I had one umbrella with me which I gave to Jonathon to use while he answered the questions and I used a reflector to keep the camera dry. I had Natasha use the LED light from the side and had Jamie use a reflector on the other to try and get some half decent light on Jonathon's face as it was a generally drab day and lighting was not helped by the black umbrella.
Originally I was really annoyed that it was raining but in the end I actually really like the effect it created. You can't get much more British than rain and after all the video is about Britain's Relationship with Tea. We also filmed a message for Jonathon to send to the Indian Tea Forum in Darjeeling, I'm really excited at the prospect of my work being seen in another country! I can't wait to get stuck in to editing it now, I hope it's not too stressful for us.
