Filming during the week

Saturday/Sunday 14/15th- We will be reshooting the car park and roof top scene as the lighting was too dark, so this time we are going to use the top light to ensure we have brighter lighting in all our footage. We also found that are shot types were quite repetetive (mainly mid shots), therefore we wanted to include a wider variety of shot types including more close ups of Layla's face to establish her as the main artist.

Monday 16th- We will be filming some more base tracks in Camden of Layla lip syncing. On this day we will aim to include more shot types and camera angles to create diversity in our footage.

Tuesday 17th- The filming is going to take place at Dilara's house which is another base track so we will get more footage of her lip syncing.

Friday 13th- In the afternoon we are going to be re-filming a base track in the Green Screen room, Layla is not going to be lip syncing but she will be dancing.

Monday 23rd- During lesson we will be filming in the white screen room with Layla and Bilal, she will be reminiscing her memories of them together.

overview of 9th november editing

update on filming

Overall, we got majorty of the filming done and are currently in the process of editing and sorting out the base tracks and match cuts in a sensible order. However, we still have some of the footage to film such as the kitchen scene in Dilara's house in Tottenham. We will be filming this scene on the 16th-17th november, so we have 2 days to film it, as it is an key and important feature in our music video. Also, we are looking to re shoot the car park scene as we want a more variety of shots in that particular footage such as median shots, close up shots and extreme closu up shots.

Blogging feedback-2

In my blogging health check 2, I received 13/20 marks which is a grade C, which I am fairly pleased with but I can do a lot of improvements and enhancements so I can achieve a higher mark/grade. 

The main things that I can do is:
1. sort the order of my blogs, so the order can be more organised and arranged properly.
2. To fill in my empty post
3. Sort the production schedule, props, costume and location blogs- to add more In depth detail in them blogs so its very clear what we intend to do and how we do it.

DAY 1 - EDITING

Firstly, we imported the videos from the SD cards to the hard drive, in order to access it from Premiere Pro CC. Once the footage had been imported we were concerned of our footage being too shaky as we never had the fig rig, due to shortage in the media department. Rebecca introduced us to Warps stabiliser, which helped smooth out the footage, we tried this with a small clip and was very successful. It takes a long time for the footage to be smoothed out, therefore once the footage is edited, we would apply this to certain clips.

 

We first looked through all the footage that we had and deleted the ones that didnt work properly and was bloopers. Also from this, we can instantly tell if we all have the suitable footage if not then we have to reshoot them particular scenes.

After we chose what footages we wanted to include we then imported in to adobe premire pro, so we can start cutting the clips into base tracks, match cuts and jump cuts etc.

We then sorted out the order of the clips that we want them to be in. By this, it gives us a clear idea on how the overall music video will end up.

We also chose the first clips and footages of what we want it and decided where the cast names will appera on.

Day 1 filming

Day 1 filming consists of getting base tracks from Shoreditch. Overall, from this location we created 2 base tracks where the artist is in front of graffiti walls with her signature trading marks such as the Black henna tattoo's sticker on her face and the red lipstick.
