FIlming - Day 3

We found a little section of road that had no entry signs, which was useful to my music video. So me, Mr Meade and Halimo set down there to film. We didd a few shots with them filming from different angles and then me filming wit the head camera (as i have practised, came a lot easier). We then moved a bit closer to school to film through the windscreen of Mr Meade's car, this was successful after a few attempts as we couldntget the bottom of my feet in due to me not wearing the same shoes.

Filming - Day 2

As it wasn't raining we decided to film. we filmed on the road just outside school and the green next to the school.
As there was me and two others we decided to get the same shot from different angles so when editing we could intertwine them and it could look effective. Once we started and did a trial run we realised you could see the other camera at the end of the shot, to resolve this problem we got camera 1 to go on the corner just outside of camera 2's shot.
It was also our first time filming wit the head camera, it took a couple of trials to get it reasonable. The first shot was to high all you could see was the sky, the second trial was to low and you only see the floor, but the third trial was lucky we got it at the right height and the footage looked good.

Filming - Day 1

Rehana, Felicity, Mr Gibbs and myself filmed at my house. We started off inside filming basic over the shoulder shots, whilst i sat at a table. One of the legs were broken so we were unable to raise the tripod to its full height, which caused problems but we worked around this at went at it from a different angle. Once we finished filming inside we moved outside and started filming the opening of the music video. Mr Gibbs said it would be a good idea if we got the same shot from loads of different angles, so that i had options when editing. I will take this idea and use it every time i film.
