Filming- Day One

On Tuesday 10th Steph and I began filming with our artists and dancers. Below are photos of this.

First we filmed shots on our storyboard where Freya is signing solo, then we filmed some shots of Freya and the dancers and finally some solo shots of each dancer. We managed to follow our storyboard plan well throughout the filming allowing us to have a clear plan of what we were doing. In this session we did have to alter some shots and positions of both Freya and dancers to fit the size of the stage and avoid collisions between them.

We are very happy with the effect of the lighting, particularity the projected stain glass window as we feel this look effective, following the theme and genre of the song. Both Steph and I are very happy with the styling and makeup of our artist and dancers, we feel this matches both the indie genre and song well. The artist and dancers complimented each other well, looking part of a set. The makeup was bold and visible particularly during the close up shots, which was what we intended and the style we were going for.

We are aiming to re-create the looks and styles for the rest of our filming days and due to noting down what we makeup we followed this time, we should be able to re-create the looks with ease. We will also be using the same cameras and lighting to ensure the video remains the same and as professional looking as possible.
