We started off the second day by filming the male bird bouncing on the fly, this is a long shot as it shows the scale and obscurity of how far up the bird jumps. The pace of editing is fast as the anger of the male bird is shown in an outburst as he is bouncing on the fly. It is an innocent bit of violence suitable for the target audience as it is seen as humorous rather than violent or aggressive. This shows to children that men try to assert power over the other characters as the male bird so far has proven he is brave. All of the other birds then come in amazement to see the male bird bouncing on the naughty fly. The other birds facial expressions show that they are simple because they follow the male bird with their eyes in awe. There is a tracking shot, following the bouncing bird, to show that the other birds eyes are watching him, the pace of editing is still reasonably fast.
The camera then goes to the moose looking blankly, this is a close up on his face which shows there is nothing happening to the moose. Then there is a zoom in on an extreme close up on his eyes which now resemble eggs. The pace of editing is always slow around the moose to emphasize their characteristics of being dull. The moose are a dull brown colour but when the eggs appear in the moose eyes, then there is a hint of difference and the characteristics of the moose change to something more sinister. The camera goes back to the birds where they are looking at the crater where the fly has been crushed. This is a long shot as it shows the next behind them which is empty. This is an over the shoulder shot which emphasizes the empty nest. The pace of editing is slow until they turn around as they are quite peaceful but the scene changes when the birds turn around and see the empty nest and the camera shows their reaction. There is then a zoom in on the nest with the reaction of the birds staying the same, showing their shock and dismay at the sight.
There is then another over the shoulder shot of the birds looking on to the next hill at the moose cuddling up to the eggs. The camera then pans to show more of the moose to show that the birds have lost to the moose. The pace of editing is slow is it is a sudden realisation of the loss of eggs. The camera zooms in to strengthen this and humours the audience as the moose looks very smug. The moose then does his trademark tongue licking as he licks the eggs to basically give two fingers up at the birds but does it in an innocent manner for the target audience to appreciate. There is an extreme close up on the birds eyes to show the ever growing anger towards the moose. The reaction shot shows that the birds feel ashamed to be outsmarted by the moose and this is shown by a slow pace of editing as normally slow editing is used for the moose. The birds eyes darken to suggest he has a plan.
The second day of filming was successful as we almost finished all the filming and we have a good plan on what we have to complete.
