The Shoot Schedule

This is our initial mock-up of the shoot schedule. Here, we have noted the times our actors are free for filming, that coincide with our Seward Studio bookings.

Group 2 Draft Schedule

After comparing our actor availability with the shots we need, also bearing in mind that we want to keep hassle with props and costumes to a minimum, we have come up with the resulting shoot schedule.

Album Cover Design

These are the original mock-up sketches for our album cover. Using these, we were able to further explore different ideas using the photos and functions available on Adobe Photoshop, to come up with our final design.

The Test Shoot

Photos from our test shoot

Our test shoot was held the day before we broke up for half term, so that we will be prepared for starting production in a weeks time. We are using one location - the Seward Studio which comes equipped with a range of lighting, so a large amount of our time was spent arranging the various set ups. Unfortunatly, despite our requests, the chairs had not been put away, so they feature in our photos, but they will not be present in the actual shoot. We experimented with a range of spotlights, using a HD camera to check whether the strength of the lighting paled out the band. Overall, we now feel much more prepared for entering the production stage of our coursework, as we have defaults now set in the lighting box. Other things we became aware of was the need for stronger make-up under studio lights, and the need to wear clothes that don't overheat too quickly. Seeing as we will probably use leather jackets in our shoot, it will be important to remember to bring lots of bottled water with us to the studio.

Shooting Schedule

Here is our shooting schedule for the main set-ups in our music video:



As you can see the schedule is split into three sections; the set-ups with just Olivia, the set-ups with both Olivia and Michael and the set-ups with all the band members. As Olivia is in our group, the shots where it is just her will be easier to shoot and can therefore be done first. We can then move on to the shots involving other members who are not in our group, such as the whole band shots and the boyfriend shots.

Track Edit

Our chosen song, Goin' Down by The Pretty Reckless was originally over 3 and a half minutes long, which was too long for our music video. This meant we had to edit the track so that it would be shorter and therefore easier to edit to.

Editing our track

After much discussion and editing on the Mac, we finally agreed on cutting out the second half of Verse 2, which now means that our song is 3 minutes 20 seconds and that we still have the main basis of our lyrics for our music video.
