Diary of DAY TWO filming

Our Second day of filming 

The day this took place was 10/10/17
Day - Tuesday
Time - 3.30PM
Location - Park/fields
Length of filming - 1 hour

This is to show how the day of our filming turned out. Here we will show what went well/wrong and any problems we received whilst filming. This was our first lot of shots that we filmed.

This will be our second lot of filming that we will do once piecing together our shooting for the first part of the song, this is so that we can see if we need to re film any for the first part as well as getting the next shots for the next part of the song. We will get more footage than there is needed so that we have extra footage in case it is needed.

We want to have a variety of shots as this is something a music video will always have, a wide range of shots and angles.

On our second of shooting here are a few shots we got from our filming

We re-shot some of our first shots we had taken,we then filmed more footage for later on. However the weather was overcast so it was going to change the atmosphere to our media project. For this reason we filmed for only an hour instead of 2 hours however we got all of the filming done that we needed to then create more onto our music video. The re-shoots that we got on this day of filming was much better than the other shots that we did first of all, they were more effective.

Problems we had

The second half of the filming the weather changed and it wasn't how we had planned for it to be so we couldn't film for as long as we wanted to keep the same type of atmosphere however as its a music video so this means that the location and backgrounds can change around in a music video it doesn't have to stay the same all the time so this was easy to work with and work around.

Things that went well during filming -

We re-shot some of our old shots that we didn't want anymore due to it them not fitting well enough and being slightly out of time. We got some good shots that we were happy with. The filming was good as we was able to get different shots and different locations so that we had a variety of locations.

Equipment/Lighting decisions in our music video

Lighting is very important in music videos, as it allows it to be easier to see and also as it sets certain moods and atmospheres. An example of this would be, if we used low amount of lighting then it'll be setting a dull and sad atmosphere which would help highlight the meaning behind the song is not a positive atmosphere. Also the other way round as well, as if a large amount of colour is used then it'll set a more upbeat atmosphere and show that they're more likely to be given a positive media video to see.  Jessie J clip Here is a clip of Jessie J where she has dull lighting which represents the atmosphere as dull and an unhappy situation. The song is of a sad subject, it is negative song lyrics, this is helped by the lighting as its all dull however she is shown with a little more light over her so that she is highlighted as the main  This music video gives an impression of a dull meaning behind it just by the setting...

Evaluation 1 - In what ways do your music product use, develop and challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

A shot that shows a link between lyrics and/or music and visuals.  One point during the song the lyrics are 'catching fire as the wind blows'. We have used a clip within our video where we have tried to portray those lyrics. This was done through the use of a candle and a girl blowing the candle out. The girl represents the wind whilst the candle represents the fire. A shot that typifies the way a record company would want their artist to be represented. The record company would want the artist to be represented in a way that teenagers can relate them. This is very apparent as the girl in the video wants to feel loved and you could interpret it as she has gone through a break up. Something in which every teenager at some point in their life has experienced. A shot that illustrates how your video uses music genre Typically the video genre is actually techno, but we have interprete...
