Filming Log 6

Sunday 8th December

For this filming session we managed to get all of the park shots done that we needed to film. As Liam had hurt his knee and wasn't able to film, we have introduced Lee as the friend that finds Andrew. We managed to get both of the band members perspectives of the meeting in the various angles that we decided to use.

Whilst we were editing and had made our first draft, we saw that the flashbacks of Andrew and I did not work as well as we as a group would of liked. As a whole, we decided to remove these shots and so when we went on our second filming shoot we decided not to re-film these shots and to just remove them instead. It also did not cut right to the beat of the music and so it did not flow well within the music video.This would then free up a little bit of time to make room for more band shots where we can include more lip syncing from Andrew. It also helps us stick to the stereotypical conventions of a Rock music video that are needed to portray this genre effectively. 

However, we did encounter a difficulty when it came to this filming session. As we didn't have the box for this filming session we have to make a reason why Andrew suddenly does not have his prop. We are now planning to film a shot where Andrew falls over and breaks his box. This will also link well with the idea that he is surrounded by bad luck that's coming from the break up. This will only be a quick shot, but it will explain a lot more about the story of the music video as a whole.
