filming overview - day 3

DAY 3:

For the third day we went to London bridge to film some more location shots. We got shots of traffic, the river, and some other visuals. I felt this went well because we managed to film a variety of shots which look effective visually.

We went to clink street under the bridge so that we can film another base track. We got shots from different angles of the artist sitting under the bridge. This went well because we managed to successfully film another base track which helps to engage with the audience emotionally.

DAY 2:

For our second day of filming we went to south bank so we can film our second base track as well as different location shots for visual effect. I felt this day went well as we managed to film a variety of shots in the space of a day. We filmed night shots as well as morning shots so we can get a range of of time in our video and so that we can follow a morning to night structure. 

EDITING - Extra filming

 

We were really pleased with the outcome of this last minute decision. The light shining on our artist gave the illusion that he had tears in his eyes which really added to the emotional mood. We will now get back to editing to see what we can do with these great shots

EDITING - Change of plan

This is the studio we have decided to use for filming another basetrack. As mentioned before, this room has professional lighting which will create the perfect mood for 'I need'

EDITING - 2nd Rought cut feedback - last minute improvements

We got our teacher Dan to watch our updated rough cut. He gave us his honest opinion and some great advice on how to improve.

One comment that we really took on board was that there wasn't enough footage of the artist himself after the halfway mark. We watched our rough cut again and completely agreed with this criticism. With only a few days left until the deadline we had to think on our feet and decided that our best bet was to use the studio with a black back-drop and professional lighting. We could film our artist singing there and slot some footage in towards the end of the song where his absence is too noticeable for a new artists' video.
Also, we will re-evaluate having black and white shots

EDITING - 2nd Rough Cut

This is our second rough cut which demonstrates the changes we made after the feedback we got from our target audience and teacher. We are still open to negative criticism more change in order to further improve
