24/11/10 Shootin!

Today was the second video shoot day which is taking place in the Drama Room. Here is some images of today and how we had to set up the scene.

 Me and Megi putting up the white curtain for the white background that we needed.

 I had to tape the wires that were on the floor to the carpet for safety reasons so that no one would trip over them or anything.

The scene is ready to be used and as you can see we started to record Sam's part

Location Confirmation

Well today we got good news from the drama department that we were able to use the drama room and all equipment for our Wednesday shoot. We are all happy about this as no location meant no shoot therefore we can now begin the real planning and send out crew lists/ emails to all members of the group.

Response From Mr. Collins: "I have cleared with all members of staff that you are able to use Drama Room 2 on the 24th to film your video, any problems come and find me..."

Letter To Drama Department

This is the letter we wrote to Mr. Collins (Head of Drama) asking for permission to use the theatre/drama rooms and equipment for our shoot on the 24/11/10.

Hope He Replies with a yes! :)

Dear Mr Collins,
We are currently studying A2 Media and as part of our media project we are creating a music video. Therefore we are writing to you to ask for permission to let us use the drama room on:

Wednesday 23rd Novemeber (9.00am - 3.00pm)

We hope you will be able to help us with this enquiry and reply with an answer as soon as possible so we can either arrange alternative shoot days or venues. We greatly appreciate your support with this and many thanks for taking the time to read this letter.

Kind Regards,

Group 1, Media

Suday Shoot

Today we went to sam's house and started filming my part of the video which takes place in her bedroom. Me, Megi and Sohail went to Sam's house as we dicussed on the schedule.

We rehursed a couple of times and after a couple run throughs we managed to film my part which went really well.

Here are some pictures for you to see what we got up to.

Dance Coreography Research

Me, Sam and Megi thought about doing a small dance routine for the chorus of the video. We looked at some video on youtube to see if we can find some moves that we could use or come up with something simillar to what they do. I will share the clips that we looked at below.



This is the first video that we looked at. Their moves are really fast we decided we couldnt do it as fast as them so we carried on searching for other clips.



This is another clip that we looked at however they were faster then the first group that we watched. This clip didnt really give us any ideas so we looked again for some more clips.



This is another clip that we looked at however they were really fast as well but we managed to take some moves from this and the other videos that we watched. You will have to wait and see our coreography in the video.

Presenation (Pitch)

A2 Music video Pitch Group 1 from Sidney Stringer on Vimeo.

Me and Sam had to do a presentation (pitch) talking about what we want to do for our music video and share our ideas with our class. Presenting the pitch to the class helped because we managed to get some feedback from them. You can hear their comments in the video above. Unfortunately Megi was absent so she couldnt take part in this.
