Last day of filming - Friday 9th November

We filmed some more shots of Bessie and Ross together by using the feedback we received from our media class. Bessie kindly let us use her house because she had ideal rooms there which would be good to use in our video eg. big rooms and a simple spare bedroom. We re-filmed nearly all of the sections with her and Ross because the feedback we received on those parts of the rough cut was weak. We improved the lighting   by using a gold reflector so the light looked as if it were daytime. It also made their skin look flawless and made the whole scene look a lot more positive.

I filmed Bessie using a big mirror on her landing, i liked the way the camera films her aswell as her reflection. We placed the light to the side of her face which lit the reflection well but not all of her face which looked dramatic. I got the idea from this music video:


[Watch from 0.22] The camera films Alice Gold looking as her reflection in a mirror and i thought it gave an interesting element and point of view.
This video also gave me an idea for layering shots when we come to edit. This music video layers blurred lights over shots of her lip syncing so i thought we could try and use a similar effect in our music video.

Other music videos of the same genre which use similar layering effects:




We also think the music video will be a lot more interesting and professional looking now that we have added lots more different settings to it.
