A2 Preliminary Evaluation Production

When Filming the video we had to make sure that we had all the props needed with us on that day but we also had to make sure the location we have chosen was available to use so we made sure to book it for the time we needed to use it, at the same time we also asked a Technician if they could come along to the hall on those days to show us how to do the lighting and set up the lighting for the shots we needed to take.

When we arrived at our location of the shoot we looked at the story board to make sure we were setting the equipment up correctly and what costumes and props we needed, then we set up the lighting for the shots, we needed the room to be dark but have some white lights shining onto the band so that we can see them on the camera and because it brightens the music video up to give a more happy feel instead of a dark dull video that doesn't make you happy after this we set up the camera angle and shot type (Closeup, Midshot and Longshot) and made sure the focus of the camera was correct for the scene, we looked back at the story board to see the time length that we needed to film the shot for and then started filming. We leart took a long time to set up and shoot just a couple of seconds for the music video and that that the shots have to be right and the set up does to in order for the video to work well with each other.
