Description of days filming

Looking back over my blog it is hard to distinguish when we went filming and what we achieved so have decided to summarise our filming here.


The first time we went down to Upwood was obviously a location scout, where we took lots of pictures and made a mental map of the place so we could draw up a shot list. We took the bat incase we wanted to film anything, but a member of the cast broke it so we had to replace it with a metal pole we found through the video.

The second time we filmed the middle of the video, as well as some of the shots from the last verse including the long corridor one. This day of filming was difficult as just before we left we established the content of the storyboard for this verse would not fit in with the music, as the last verse is slower than the second. We decided to improvise and film the characters smashing everything up in the second verse, before then having the third verse slow as the characters run to escape what they have done.

The third time we went to Upwood we filmed the first verse and last shots. This went a lot smoother and the storyboard and shot list made this day so easy we were done in about an hour. We continued to get more shots that wern't on the storyboard incase we needed anymore footage, but whilst editing we found we already had tons of shots. Below is some pictures of us filming during this filming session:

Filming the chorus yesterday was also easy. I had a clear idea how the chorus should look thanks to the use of effects we found on Premiere Pro CS4, so the shots were easy to create, especially in school, and didn't take too long either.
