Production Update - 9th December
Addition of actress
We are planning to incorporate a female into our music video. We decided to do this as we feel we needed something else to catch the viewer's attention, because right now there are too many shots of just George, which makes our video a bit repetitive. The female we have chose to use, is Amy as, although it works with our shooting schedule because she if also free these days, she also goes well with our brand, as she is the same age, and fits in with our music video well. By adding a female, this should show our storyline better of George being lost over a girl, which we will show by George and Amy becoming further apart as the music video progresses.
Filming
We are planning to film there shots on, Sunday 11th December and Monday 12 December. On sunday, we are planning to film at night, and do the shots with the fire in at George's house. We just need a few shots at the end of our music video, which will consist of George standing next to the fire, thinking of the girl, and a shot of George burning a picture of the female, to represent his feelings. On Monday, we are going to Morden after school to film the shots needed with George and Amy. We have a few shots ideas, such as both walking away from the camera, and towards the camera, both sitting on the bench together, etc. Then when it becomes night, we will go back to the ally, we filmed at before, and do some shots there with our new addition of artist.

Filming - 11th November
We went back to Putney after realising some shots we did before, were out of focus and too shaky to use for our first draft. We did some more esthablishing shots of just the bridge, then as we edited before we went out to film, we knew which shots we were missing. This made us organised when filming as we knew exactly what we needed to do, such as more lip syncing shots etc, which made this filming session alot more successful. Also this time, the weather was a lot better as the sun was out so we were able to get the lens flares we wanted. Lastly,
the first time we came to Putney, we werent able to get a guitar,
however this time we did, so we recorded many shots with the artist and
the guitar.

Reflective Editing Post
Tuesday 1st November -- This was our first editing day, which we only had shots for one location (Morden) at this time. We just started our project on Premiere Pro, importing all the shots we have filmed on to the draft, and started to link up some lip syncing shots, to the correct position in the song.
- Overall, we used this time to focus on the Morden establishing at the start of the song where there is no lyrics.
- On Tuesday, we now had shots from Putney and Morden so our editing was mainly to link up the lip syncing shots to the song. Once we done this, we could cut shots where we wanted, and start making up our music video, when all the shots were linked up with the song correctly.

Tuesday 15th November -
- Now that we had all our shots from 2 locations into Premiere Pro, we now could start making our music video draft by cutting up shots and making it match to the beat. After this period of 3 hours to edit, we had our shots cutting to the beat, and verse 1 & 2 nearly complete, with just a few more shots needed to put in. To be able to do more, we need to film at night, where we need to start a fire which we are doing on the Sunday 20th November.

Filming days - 21st & 31st October.
On the 21st we mainly filmed establishing shots as our artist, George wasn't available, which we then played around with the camera, trying to get a lens flare and out of focus to in focus shots, etc. The only problem was some shots we filmed were out of focus which we didn't notice at the time but could see when we got the shots on the computer, and also some shots were too shaky to use in our music video. Next time, we will practice more with the fig rig to make our shots more steady, and to film the shots more than once to try and achieve a better focus.
From these 2 filming sessions we can see that, we need to reshoot some shots from Morden park which were shaky (mainly tracking shots), and need to go to Putney bridge and georges house. Our next filming session will be Friday 4th November.
