Filming day five

We had a gap in the chorus of our music video in which we needed to fill in. So, we filmed a band performance in order to add more locations in our music video. This was very successful in terms of camera shots and camera movements. Unfortunately, when we uploaded it for editing, we found that it did not match up with the rest of the music video in terms of music and the other scenes.

Filming day four

Today, we have realised that there is not a huge amount of time to film left and therefore we thought that with the availability of cat and crew, we would do some test shots in order to see what works and what doesn't. We did not get everything filmed, but we do know what to do exactly for when we next film, thus allowing us more time to film rather than work out what to do.

Meeting eight

With the amount of time left, we have decided to film and edit as much as possible in a period of a couple of days and this will leave us plenty of time to edit and to re-film if needed. This way we will be able to make the music video at it's best quality. To start with, we will film the office scenes with the main singer to add more locations to the music video. After this all we need to film is the band performance, which should take no more than a day.

Meeting seven

We originally had a plan to film and edit on certain days, however, we have had a disruption because of a robbery, restricting us upon what we can do. Luckily we had the footage so we will have to re-edit the music video as soon as possible. On top of this, we still have to film other scenes for the main singer and the band performances. In the meantime we are also going to work on our website and individual Digipaks and start to film and edit in the available times that we have got.

Filming day three

As discussed in our meeting, we thought that re-filming the female lead would be best in order to improve the music video. The filming was successful as it was sunny, despite the cold weather plus we got enough filmed in the short time given. When putting it on FinalCut for editing, we found that both performers matched up more than before making the video look stronger.

Meeting six

After seeing our music video so far, we realised that something was missing which was the narrative and that there was too much performance. Particularly with the locations also being in the same place making it look as though it drags on. Due to this, it made our music video weaker and having lots of gaps which did not make the music video as entertaining as it should be. We also found that the main singer was in the same location for too long, to solve this problem, we decided that we should locate him in an office to not only change locations but to give the video a narrative and link back to the lyrics. We also found that the footage for Lady Sovereign did not match up to the main singer performance wise. Because of this, we decided to re-film the female lead but with someone different in order to get the best footage that matches up with the performance of the main singer.
