Shooting Day 1

Shooting Day 1

On our day on of shooting, we went to a forest and filmed some basic shots to use all through the song.  The footage that we got was not quite what we wanted and so therefore we planned to change our initial ideas of footage and have chosen a different girl to star in our video.

I have created a shooting schedule to help us plan our day of shooting our music video. Below I made a timetable of what we will be doing on the day. As both I and Rachael had other subject lessons in the morning we know the earliest we could start to film was 11.20am.

  

11.00am – I and Rachael will meet in the Media Room. Firstly we must remember to check we have the correct equipment, the camera is fully charged, we have a Tripod and the connector for the camera and tripod.

11.20am – Leave school and start heading towards our location with all our equipment. This walk is roughly 15minutes from school

11.40am – Arrive at location, soon as we arrive we should try setting up quickly as possible, moving the Camera in position, getting ourselves into our costumes, hair and make-up all ready. 

12.00pm- Start our first shoot, which will be the first two line of the song, just standing in-between trees with leaves on the floor and miming the lyrics from a mid shoot, then again close up. Throughout the rest of the day film from all different angles so when editing, it flows.

12-00pm – 2pm - Two hours to continue filming. Here we will do shots of both me and Rachael lip singing the lyrics, close up, mid shot, full length shot and an idea of filming our lips as we mime the lyrics.

2.15pm – Pack away all equipment and get ready to start walking back to school for the end of the day.
