Comment
Position 2,3,4: Slowly rotate the camera 360 degree in about 30-40 seconds. Keep the camera horizontal. (Position 2 is roughly the location of the Governor’s Palace site. Position 3 is on top of the Podium if you can go on top of it. Position 4 is somewhere in front of The HAND sculpture. )
Position 1, 5, 6: keep the camera still, let run the tape for 5-10 minutes, and capture activities such as people walking by, bicycle driving, etc with ambient sound. Target the camera approximately the direction shown by the arrow. Position 1 is the same as Position 1 of Task 03, and the framing of the view must be roughly the same so that part of the building A show in the corner of the frame. Position 5 should have a little bit of the tower of shadow in the corner of Camcoder frame. There is no specific location for Position 6. Please find a location which satisfies the following conditions.
  1. Somewhere on the terrace between A and B.
  2. where you have activities of people and possibly bicycle and cars
  3. background should be as simple as possible such as just a far blue sky without building.
  4. If the Sun is up, it should be behind the cameraman so that
      people will be lit from the front.
Movement 1: stand in the center of the plaza looking at Position 2.
        Hold camera by hand and rotate clock-wise 360 degree in about
       30 seconds and then start walking towards Position 2. Keep
       Walking on the plaza till you come to Position 2. If there is some
       barrier and you cannot come up to Position 2, just come as close
      as you can.
