Filming..

Tuesday, 29th November 2011, we filmed Laura's rapping scene. We filmed her scene in the car, shot from four different angles. The lighting that we had was rather useful as it did not make the scenes too dark. We also filmed her walking up the street lip-syncing to the song. Overall, I believe the filming was quite successful.

CALENDAR...

Friday, 25th November 2011

Today we filmed quite a lot elements for our musicvideo at Megan's house. Overall, some bits of the filming were successful whilst others weren't. The scenes we filmed were Laura's scene with Adam in the car, this did not prove quite as successful as the streets were too dark at that time and the lighting that we had withus was not sufficient enough to make the scene brighter. Therefore, this resulted in the filming becoming too dark and it made it unclear what was actually happening in the car scene with Adam and Laura. Secondly, we also filmed Megan and Ermal's scene on the red backdrop. I think out of all the scenes we shot that night this was the most successful as the lightingwas accurate and the scene was in sync with the music and we also shot the scenefrom many different angles. However, whilst shooting Laura's scene in the car we found that the lighting was a major issue, as the streets were really dark as it was rather late and also the lights that we had brought were not sufficient enough. We filmed Amy's scenewhilst interrogating Joe which was still really dark. We also filmed Helen's part of the video which went alright.

Intertextual Reference...

We have decided to use this new advert for Rimmel's new mascara 'Scandal' as an intertexual reference to be used within our video. We feel it suits our video and it also goes well with the theme.

Shooting (Part 1)

On Friday, 11th November Amy, Laura and Megan went to film Amy's section of the music video at NCP car park in the evening. I could not film with them due to unforeseen circumstances but the filming went well overall. Below are some pictures from the shooting.
