Day 2- Filming log post

Day 2- Filming log post

On the second day of filming we further developed our library of cut aways and 
narrative, whilst we wait to be able to travel up to London to film the lip singing and the song the whole way through. Once we have completed this we will have a backing giving us something to base the narrative and cut aways upon.

Today's filming was a lot more successful than the previous day, the weather was better and we were more prepared meaning we had the correct costumes. Additionally we had a better understanding of our requirements, identified through the issue we had in the previous day filming.

We went to a near by alley and park to film today's shots. we chose this location as it looks dark and mysterious a typical convention of the drum and bass genre. In general i think the shots we gathered were successful and provide us with a lot of cut aways and narrative for our music video helping us in the later stages of the development.

My individual contribution was to act and to film some shots. I wore the mask, trying to emphasis the mysterious, and hidden identity we want from the masked character. I also filmed a couple focus pull shots used to represent the followed character.

We tried to follow the storyboard we set in the planning stages of the music video creation. However on the day we can sometimes decide to change some shots to suit the current situations. An example is in the shot of the masked figure standing behind a garage, seen during a 360 rotation around the location. This was not planned however when we got to the area we decided that this shot was achievable and could look good in our music video. 

Here are some of the key shots we gathered on the second day of filming;
