Filming and Finalising Shots

Today we finalised all of the shots that we wanted to film later on in the day, we created a separate storyboard for the shots that we needed to film today. We have decided to re-film some shots as we thought that we did not hide that Lewis is a boy. After school we went to Emilys house to film with Lewis and my friend India came to film as well, to give usthe audience perspective of the different shots and the narrative. Filming last year in ASfor our opening to a film we found that some times we missed the small details in the back ground for example, a modern car parking sign was on the wall which could of ruined the time period piece. So having a friend watching our filming helped a lot as she noticed things that we did not. We have filmed Lewis applying make up, Lewis in womens clothes, Lewis meeting Emily (his girlfriend) and we filmed the transformation between boy and girlat the end of the video. Overall I am very happy with the filming, how well we worked as a group and the co-operation between us and Lewis and I am very thankful that he was willing to film. Tomorrow we are going to upload all of the footage that we filmed tonight.

Group Meeting (Six) Montage

On Friday 19th November our group had a meeting to discuss our new narrative ideas, locations, costumes and camera shots. We had the meeting after school in Emily's house which made us feel calm as in the class room it is very noisy. We used the lyrics to Teenage Dream to inspire us and we knew that we wanted the challenge the aspects of a pop genre, we decided to include a bigger twist at the end which was inspired by Kids in Glass Houses- Matters At All. We have edited some footage from the meeting to Delphic- Counterpoint I felt that the song suited our vibe. The video introduces our group and the people at the meetings. Some shots show us working and re-in acting some shots that we want to do in our music video, however most of the shots in the montage are of us eating biscuits and laughing.
This is a montage of our meeting.

Group Meeting Log (One)

In our group we have created a meeting log using Microsoft Excel, during these meetings we will discuss the ideas we have for our music video, inspiration and organising when we will record. I will colour co-ordinate each week with different colours so we can look back at how our ideas have changed and developed throughout the construction and production. In the table we have labelled date of the meeting, time of the meeting, venue of the meeting, attendees and the minutes (what we had done in the meeting) and actions (what we are going to do before our next meeting). We will try and meet up each week in side and out side of school so we are prepared for when we will make our video.

This is our group's meeting log:
