Our fourth shooting session was carried out on 21/10/12. This shooting session was focused on the second half of the music video, which contains shots containing the girl. We also had to shoot shots of the main character walking through a different, more urban environment in comparison to the housing estate we shot him walking through for the first half of the music video.
The flashback shots are vital to the success of our music video, and while some were superb (in my opinion) - such as the bus stop shots and the shots of the main character walking past his ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend - some were unsatisfactory. The happiness flashback shots were poor, as the main character and the girl did not show emotion for each other in that shot.
Once again, we uploaded the footage in 360p (rather than 720p) so that it would upload faster - that is why the footage is blurry and unfocused. This will not be the case in the finished music video. The footage had to be uploaded to YouTube in two parts, to get around the 15 minute upload limit for videos when your YouTube channel is new and/or does not upload footage regularly.

Shoot 4: Pt 1 : Tracking shots with garage doors in foreground are good and reference title sequence in this is England (film)
ReplyDeleteShoot 4 Pt 2: nice tilt tracking shots in park.
It would be useful if you could get some tracking shots in the city, for variety. Can discuss in class, try to avoid too many shots of suburbia. Keep up the good work.
