PRODUCTION SCHEDULE

Post Production 7

Me and my partner Gareth filmed our music video up in South Bank with the help of Serife and Rizwana because they were filming in the same location with us. We done the whole song and re-worked some stuff to improve our song. In the previous recording we didn't do well due to my eye contact with the camera which would bring down our grade if we kept the original footage. On the day we filmed all the versuses and Chorus one and two and used various location in central london such as Oxford Street, Waterloo and South Bank. The filming took a lot of time and it was annoying to film due to the weather which affected the lens. The rain made the lens frost/blur up due to droplets so we had to film shots more than once to make it look good.
When we got back to school we had to upload all our footage and reconstruct our entire piece of  footage to construct our video. In are post production we used white screen in the last chorus and ending this was used as fillers so we didn't have any gaps whenproducing the song.
After finishing our song after long hours of editing we had to make two copies are song low quality and hight quality. The low quality copy got put on YouTube and posted on our blogs. We also had to put are work on to the school hard drive (Lacie) which was high quality.

Post-Production 6

This week me and my partner Gareth went up to South Bank to film parts of our music video for class. The shot filmed on the day seemed to be relavent for our music video that was meant to be nearly completed for school the next week. When filming we used various location up and down the South Bank which was a great in terms of framing. On the day we filmed the chorus and one verse which wast soo bad but we had to use myself because my orginal cast proved to be unreliable for use therefore we had to use myself in order to finish the project and get it completed. On the day of filming the weather wasn't great it didn't hinder our ability to film but we managed to get through it even though it left our fingers numb the filming produced was to decent standard.
When we got back to school we uploaded our footage and it prove to be a small amount recorded as We started editing we realised that there was more work that needed to be done the following week which was very stressful the following week. Our shots we filmed proved to not as good as we orginally thought but sir altough harsh gave good advice on how we could fix the problem and how to improve the clips we shot. In the shots we filmed my eye contact with the camera was pretty poor and did not look convicing or trust worthy.

Production Week 5

During this week me and my partner Gareth went up to Waterloo to re-film our music video to edit the following week. Our cast proved to be unreliable therefore i had to step in and be the main artist in the video. On our first day of re-shooting we managed to get a large amount of shots on the South Bank. South Bank was great because the weather was decent and the sceneary was great. On the first day we tried to get different camera angles and shots to help engage the audince and capture emotion of the song.
On the second day we managed to to get just much done as the first, in the second day we got the verses and second chorus done. The second day was more or less local so we didn't have much difficultie with anything. On the second day of filming we had to replace our actress with Nisha because she pulled out last minute again leaving us in a bit of turmoil for a split second. Nisha was very helpful and we were glad to have her in our video which was the missing to the puzzle. We finshed the day and were happy with the work produced by are selves
