Final Filming

We filmed the final shots for our music video at the Stay Free Studios in Leicester which is the nsame location we used to film our draft. We decided this was the best thing to do to keep consistance as we knew the layout of the studio and we had already identified how to solve problems we encountered from our previous time there.
We found from our footage of our draft that the shots were too dark, so we took an inspection light (as shown in the Animoto post) and we shon the light facing a clear white board which lit the entire room. We originally had the light facing directly at the stage but we as the actors found it too bright to look onto. After looking back at the shots we filmed we realised it had worked.
For the final video we brought in a new actor to have the role of the singing as we felt the person we used for our draft didn't give us the image we felt was needed to be the frontman. The new actor brought in gave us the image we wanted as the frontman and he fitted with the image. We went to the studios more organised with a set table of what we were going to be filming and in what order. This made filming more efficiant as we knew what we were doing before we got there. It was also important we filmed at the same place as we knew how were going to film and the positions to put our camera in so we didn't waste time sorting this out.
