MAKE-UP

COSTUME

The costume for our final shoot was again very different to our previous performance costumes in the colours. Me and my other group member Paru suggested our artist to wear an oversized t-shirt as it would give the performance a relaxed, casual feel. We also had our artist wear lace up heels as we were going to get full body shots and close ups of her feet when dancing.

LOCATION SHOOTING

Our location for our final shoot was the big drama room in school. We used this room because we needed to have a dark backdrop instead of our previous white ones as this would create a distinct contrast when the bridge of our song plays. Luckily this room has black painted walls and big enough space to set up the projector again and also move the dolly around as this time that is what we were using to film for the long shots along with another camera on a tripod filming the close ups.

EDITING

Also while I was editing I needed to change the colour of some of the shots as they were too dark such as this one. As I was playing around with the colour corrector I matched a different clips colour to overlay this one and it gave it a dusty pink tone and brightened it up so I decided to apply it to all the narrative shots. I conferred with my group members to see if they liked the colour and they did, so I think we will keep this instead of the super 8 footage.

EDITING

Today I edited for 4 hours during lesson and staying behind school until 5:30pm. In this time I managed to put together the second half of the music video narrative and half of the second performance.

FIFTH SHOOTING

For our fifth shooting the performance shots have to be notably different to our other ones so we have decided to go with a dark theme as our previous ones a quite bright and fun. I hope that these new performance shots are going to be a lot more emotive than the others as these shots will come in when the song is ending which is the turning point in the narrative. I have started looking at gifs and pictures that we can use to project for the final time.

FIFTH SHOOTING

On Monday we have booked out the drama room for last minute shooting. We have decided to film another performance shot because both of our performance shots look quite similar. (The drama room is quite dark so it would create a contrast within the performance shots). I also thought considering I am cinematographer and editor that the new footage would nicely create some diversity within the video and help the bridge in the song seem more apparent.
