Production Diary 10/03/12

This week I have been working on my second draft of my music video, and have finished and exported it. I spent the time removing the shots I felt were out of focus or too similar, and instead added in the shots I recently gained from my video shoot with Verity. I feel that this make it look much more professional and interesting as the shots are more varied, for example I have included shots from her room and her in high heeled shoes. I will now collect audience feedback on this draft, and focus on how I can further improve my music video.

Production Diary 02/03/12

Yesterday I conducted an additional shoot with my main actress, in order to gain some more footage of her in extreme close ups as I felt this part of my music video was not as prominant as I first planned, instead there was a lot of perofrmance based green screen footage. I felt this went very well, as I was more familiar with the camera and how to adjust its settings such as using shallow focus to create more visually interesting shots. I also felt more prepared this time, as I went there knowing the exact shots I wanted to get thus I was able to be more clear with my actress as to what to do.

Here is some example footage that I gained from this shoot:
