Filming diary

Today was the second time I filmed. I booked a camera out for the weekend and arranged to film with Vicki on the Sunday. This gave me the chance to film on Saturday, the parts of my video that I didn’t need to have anyone in. As one of the concepts of my video is that ‘We all want love’, I wanted to show that this may not only refer to just another person and so I went and filmed lots of inanimate objects to show that my protagonist isn't just concerned with love from another person, but also through things she already has such as the trophies, her jewellery and her phone and purse. Ultimately, this meant that I was able to film a wide range of shots of things such as those listed to be added to my music video.

As Vicki passed her driving test and got a car at the very end of November, being able to get her to my house was easy as she didn't need to rely on anybody else for transport. However, I wanted to film the shots where she is looking sad and remembering her relationship with Sam so needed her to be wearing dull colours as well as some red but as she didn't have anything suitable to wear, I organised the costume at my house once she had arrived. I am lucky to have two rooms, one of which is grey and the other is brightly coloured. This meant that I could also film her in the bright room too so I used the time I had with her more efficiently on the one day rather than spread the filming out over another weekend.
