Lead Singer Trial (Michael)

Due to the lack of people available to be in the music video, we had to carry out a trial to see if someone else (Michael) could be in the music video. The trial was successful. Michael lip synced correctly and he had the right costume. We used a tripod to simulate the guitar prop, and michael looked the part. Which is why he is the chosen lead singer. There were some things which I needed to make sure that it is not present in the actual video. One of the main things is the lighting. As you can see I can only see half of Michael's face. To prevent this I would have him standing directly under the right light or make sure I gave the right shade of light. Another thing that I need to make sure about is the different posters on the wall. I need to position the camera properly, even though I couldn't see it in the camera window, it some how ended up in the final video. If I positioned the camera properly, I would be able to cut them out. I can also make sure its not on the wall.

First day of filming

For our first day of filming, due to unavailability of people/actors and the place of where we were going to film (Media Classroom). We decided to film some scenery, we filmed a few cars driving by. We took more than one take to decide which car we wanted to be in the car. This is filler to our video.
