Response to filming on Friday 1st

Today was a day of filming for the group, which i felt was very important in order to get up to date with editing and the filming that we have missed. I took the role of gathering the costumes and camera for the group, then heading down to the drama studios to begin filming. I took control of the lighting of the studio whilst also setting up the camera in different positions whilst Tash. M was getting ready in her costume.

After this chorus shoot, we managed to get the help of Jack (the guy) in helping us film random shots for our montage at the end of the video. We went onto the field where i filmed lots of different shots of Tash. M and Jack being "in love" which links to our idea of the flashback for the video.

After this, we went up to the french corridors, in order to finish the second verse narrative of the line up, making sure we filmed Tash.M lip syncing with Jack. We also did our "postmodern" shot of Jack being trapped in the black stripes of paper, linking this to the idea of Lady Gaga in her music video "Telephone".

Finally, the group decided to re shoot the footage for the beginning of the video, when the artist is walking down the stairs. We decided to do this, as i pointed out that the lighting is drastically different to some of the other shots that we have uploaded onto "Final Cut". Therefore, we decided to make sure that the lighting was darker, linking to the idea of being in a "dungeon" which i felt we captured successfully. We also did quick shots of Tash. M's face and her "getting ready" such as putting lip gloss on etc in order to make sure that we have spare footage if necessary.
