Overview
Our shot variety turned out well as we have a good amount of both studio and outside shots that work well together. We made sure to have plenty of base shots so we can apply a faster pace of editing as we have a lot of shots to pick from. We have also managed to implement a few new shots that we didn't plan to do that turned out great:
When we were filming our intro we came across a location that had four light pillars that we thought would look great to record next to them. One of those shots is a mid shot where I'm singing to the sped up version of the song. This allowed us to then slow down the footage to normal song speed which made it look like I'm singing in slow motion which I think came out great. We also used that location for the silhouette shot which had me standing in front on the light, making me appear completely dark against my background. We used this for the shots where I'm dancing which I also believe came out very well. Also, we have managed to overcome the potential difficulties of filming in a tube station which we though would be difficult but due to the late time we filmed everything came out fine without it being too difficult.
As to what didn't go so well its mostly that we failed to go by our production plan due to unpredictable weather and unavailability of group members at times. We managed to overcome this however and only have a small portion left to film which we will do today (Monday 23rd November). We have also noticed that we need at least three people at the shoot at all times because when Me and Seun went out to film we couldn't leave the equipment anywhere so we were wasting valuable filming time.
We have managed to go by the storyboard as much as possible which was not too hard as our narrative is very simple and can be easily altered on the day of shooting. We still didn't get to filming the shots of the girl in the video which will hopefully be done today and that will be a wrap on filming which will leave us a sufficient amount of time for editing.
