Good morning. Guess who? Ben and me.
Church of England interviews number two.
Hello guys.
How is it going Ben? Let's see if we can find where we're going. That's a good start.
We're going for the really really big old pointy thing
which is the Cathedral. Somewhere that way.
We actually saw so the bell tower. So basically guys ,we are working on this videos for the
Church of England, it's a series of interviews called Our Faith, so
people talking about their faith and the Christianity in general and, as you
seen in our previous episode at Liverpool Cathedral, if you haven't go
and check it out now in the link below, today we're going to another cathedral.
Canterbury Cathedral is like the Mother Church of all of the Anglican
Communion so it's a pretty big deal. We have 12 people to interview today,
so hopefully we'll wrap up in a couple of hours. Hopefully.
In terms of gear today, we've got Blackmagic, gopro,
tripod one light. I think that's
what we need for for these interviews. I feel like Rambo man.
Can you hear the bell? 10 o'clock in the morning. We're in front of the visitors entrance.
We're just in, this lady is escorting us inside, someone is expecting us, I think.
We're inside the cathedral now with Adrian. He's taking us around to find the right
location because we don't want a really noisy place but we also want some nice
background so we're going through the Cathedral now. We're going up.
We're going into this Chapel where actually people are not allowed.
Interesting, it looks really old stuff.
Guys this place! Have you seen the date? 1628. Canterbury Cathedral is amazing,
it's not as big as Liverpool but still impressive.The stained glasses are great.
So this was built in 597. The stained glasses you see here at my back
800 years old. History
Canterbury is a city southeast of England and this famous cause of it was
the destination of a pilgrimage in the Middle Ages.
So this star represents the center of the Anglican Church and from here it
spreads all around the globe.
Originally this was a monastery. We've had all the
medicines. They were made here and they would have been grown here and originally when
the gardener came in it was literally chives and parsley and he started putting
back all the old medieval herbs. We are checking the outdoor as well but as all
the other clips are indoor we we don't think it's a good idea because otherwise
there there's too much contrast between the videos, so we might be filming
indoors but this place again is to be visited. We are in the place where the
Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered here in the year 1170.
As I'm very curious I was asking to Adrian also about ghost
stories and apparently there's a there's a path here in the cathedral that if you go
through on a Friday and you see a spirit of a woman you will not last very long.
Scary. Yeah yes let's set up in here and we'll do
Simon's gonna bring some people down at about the past 11 ish and so we can do
some in here and then based on what we've done, we can then
revisit. So I think we want to make the most of the the main cathedral
itself so I think we're gonna try and do some stuff kind of looking down here
because you've just got if you spin around you've just got this lovely view
down and there'll be people looking around which is fine but we want to make
the most of it before it gets too busy and then if it gets too busy, its too loud
and everything we can move into a side Chapel, and then work from there.
24 mm lens, so we get a bit of background as well and people walking past.
In terms of lighting we've got one LED light today and we've got this big
window here, with natural light, so this part of the
face is fine, yeah and now Ben just put on the light
just to cover this side as well. We're going with a Rode mic
so we get a bit of atmosphere as well and then we're going to set up a
lapel. We're waiting for the people to arrive and start with the interviews so
hopefully in a few minutes we'll start. Quarter to midday, it's quite noisy, we've
got workers upstairs, so we think it's better to go in the chapel. It's quite
noisy here we've got reception right there,
workers upstairs and in there the light is better anyway, so we're gonna wrap up.
Setting up the clip mics. Ready to roll!
Hey actually we're gonna close the episode here. We have not time as we need
to get a train back to London so Ben and me, we say bye.
