Progress on Filming

Today was the first day of filming that Sean and I did, with Amelia Waterson (actress). I decided that we should film the major scene within the music video, so that we could concentrate more on this scene and then after on the smaller scenes.

We filmed after school so that the premise of where the scene was taken place would be empty and quite. Sean created the tea party table with a white table cloth and the mugs and saucers. While I made up Amelia with her makeup and hair - to fit her correctly to the position that she was performing as.

The shot list came in well when filming as we both knew excatly what was happening and what position that camera had to be in, to gather the right angles that is requested.

At the beginning of filming, Amelia did not have confidence with the task requested for her to perform, however, through out the time of filming, she gathered the confidence and was able to mouth and act the words perfectly. The only problem that we faced was the weather. Amelia was wearing a strappy dress in extremly cold weather, this created a sense of quickness to complete the shot that was in action.

Overall, I feel that we captured everything that was needed, with more than one take for each shot. This way, we had a choice of which shot was best.
