Problems with Codemasters and getting copyright off everyone, Microsoft and Sony are all good and they're the main ones looking, might have to cut codemasters section out but too early to say. Freelance Portfolio Activity 1 is half completely going to look at NGamer magazine/Kerrang Magazine for examples of article writers/journalism.

We went around town looking for vox pops we got one gamer and tried to get people which didn't fit the stereotype which midday in stratford did not prove difficult. We also decided to get more gamer vox pops at gamestation when we have the gamestation retailer interview.

Filming at Alex's House. Before we started I reminded people of the Charlie Brooker set and showed them the video and we basically mimic'd it in a basic way. We got a few geeky posters to put behind me.
We filmed:
Introduction,
Halo 3 Review,
Killzone 2 Initial Reactions.
Game Footage.
Today was a good day for filming.

After capturing the footage we realised it wasn't all that great. Some wasn't exactly usable and the in-game footage didn't work. Luckily we had enough time to put things right and we did get some usable footage so it wasn't exactly a wasted day.
