Today we filmed our music video. We have used all of our preparation from the research and planning and used it for our production. We followed our 2 column story board throughout. I think that the filming of the music video was very successful as we were all prepared and organised, as well as our actors and actresses. We managed to get ourselves some reliable actors who listened properly and took it seriously as I have had some bad experiences in the past with the actors not turning up or not taking it seriously. My group also each made sure that we had a job title and each had their turn of filming. I think we worked great as a team because we all listened to each others opinions and comments,which has definitely helped it flow calmly.
We pre-booked our destination which was the lecture room at our school. We thought it was the best place to film for our video as it fit with our narrative perfectly, it wasn't oversized and it had all of the resources we needed; such as the projector, fan, speakers, the desk etc...
The only actor we needed to prepare costume was the main actor, Joe. His part in the video was to be a 'crazy' lecturer. So we gave him the stereotypical 'teacher/lecturer' costume i.e; shirt, tie, blazer.
We each made sure that everyone in the group had a chance to film. We each allocated different shots to ourselves in the group. My part of the filming was to record the close up shots as well as the point of view shots which we did from the lecture audiences point of view.
We alos added other shots such as Joe acting into the camera from a flat angle close up throughout the whole song so we can cut parts of it to use in the final edit. Becky had the good idea of Joe (actor) to hold the lens of the camera, miming the lyrics and rotating n a circle
