Shooting Script

Production log 6

In this week we have done a great deal of filming. We had gone to central to film all the Leicester Square scenes which was fun but even then I still felt as if things were not working out how I expected them to be. When filming I had to do a lot of takes just to get the correct shot and even then I didn't feel satisfied.

We also re-filmed all the drama studio shots which we had stayed back after school for quite long and we filmed all the house and work scenes. I believe the shots that came out of the house and work scenes were quite successful and i think when it comes to editing it will be pretty good. I just worry that we will not have the enough shots.

I then did go on to do some editing of the footage whilst my partner started working on the magazine advert and digipak. Looking at the work my partner has produced so far i believe the digipak and the magazine ad will look very nice and it will be a successful piece of work. In the editing side, the things I have edited does have gaps in it but that is due to needing more film in those gaps but what I have edited so far is pretty good.

A schedule emphasizing the fact that the actor was only available on certain days. 

A downside of this week is that we were supposed to re-film all the shots in central London on Sunday however the weather had prevented us from doing so. Therefore we had to film on a day that unfortunately will cut down on the editing time but it has to be done. It is quite difficult because the actor we need is only available on certain days and those days are the days that i work but we had found a compromise and we are now set to film on a another date.

Production Log 5

This week we have finally started production stages and it has been a decent week. We took pictures for the digipak and the magazine advert and they have turned out quite well in terms of framing and composition, however i feel as if the location needs to be improved greatly.

Taking these pictures did not take long at all and this was due to the fact that my partner and i had already visualized what kind of image we want and all we then had to do was produce the picture.

We did also film some shots but i feel as if we do need to re-film them but i will see that once i upload the footage onto the computer and watch them back. I feel this way because the props we need were not there so it didn't really match the script and i wanted to match the script because the script is a written representation of what my partner and i had imagined.

Production Log 4

During this week we are still in pre-production stages. We are finishing the shooting script and doing the last of the logistics. Overall it is a good thing that we are now finishing pre-production and personally i do hate all the pre production paper work so it is god for me. I found that doing the shooting script is very stressful as you need to know what happens in every shot and you have to go into ALOT of detail from how the camera will be angles to how long the shot will be. the only thing i did like about doing the script was it gave me a chance to visualize what i wanted the music video to be like which is always good fun. When it came to doing the logistics i found it much easier as they were shorter pieces of work and my partner and i could evenly split up this work.

I am happy that pre production is coming to a close and i am excited to be moving into production stages but i fear that it will be very hard being a music video and all. Hopefully it will turn out better than expected and we get a good grade.
