Filming B-roll

We began filming. We started with B-roll footage because on the day it was too busy to film instruments or interviews. 
I set up one camera and tripod to film a time lapse. This did not go so well, however it was more of an experiment, and now know that the camera should be pointed towards a different part in the location. I also recorded some foley on the fostex field recorder with two T-Bone EM9900 Shot gun Microphones, just incase audio on other shots needed to be continuous, or if there was a legal obligation etc.
Me and Dan decided to shoot other artistic shots of some available instruments, which were drums. We toggled the focus to create different forms of depth in the image to make it more visually interesting, and they turned out well.
We encountered a slight problem when young children were running around, but the equipment was not in the way for them to run into or play with.
