Filming - The First Sequence

My group filmed the first sequence for our media coursework, which involves introducing the main characters for the first time, after they've become DIY heros. We decided to film it this way, because we believed it would be better for the audience to familiarize themselves with the costumed vigilante form of our characters straight away, as it tells the viewer what the entire film would be about.
As we wanted to include a voice over segment at the start of the film, we decided to go with a slow pan, in which each of the characters would introduce themselves when the camera fell on them.
We filmed shots 1,2,4,5,6,7 and 8 today, we will proceed to edit together these shots before getting feedback from the teacher to see if our style of filming is going in the right direction.
We are pleased with what we have shot so far, if any re-shoots need to be made we have decided they will be done in the window of the 28th of December, till the 2nd of January (excluding the 31st of December and the 1st of January).
The second segment which is the flashback segment of the film, showing the characters before they become heros, we've decided to film in the week starting the 3rd of January, as we will have other students entering our school scene, making it more believable.
