Editing progress

Today when we were editing we came across the problem that the LED light we used while filming appeared in some of the clips we were wishing to use. As we had no other clips to replace this and we had no time to re film the clips we tried to find out how we could cover up the camera and make it un noticeable.
After spending the majority of the lesson looking for a solution

 to this, towards the end of the lesson in Adobe Photoshop we found the 'Clone Stamp' tool. We used this to remove the light in the clip without cropping the light out as this would make the specific part of the video look a different ratio to the rest. We also tried to cover the light with a black photo, however, it was too obvious and stood out. The tool works by selecting the part of the clip you wish to duplicate, we selected another part of the black background and copied this over the top of the area we wanted to get rid of.

Social Media : Twitter

In order to promote our artist we decided to make a Twitter page, as Twitter is one of the most used apps and will be the best way to update fans. This allows us to share our website and promote new and up coming music. Twitter also means we can answer any questions fans may have and communicate with them. Below is a picture of our Twitter page:

We've started editing!

Although we haven't finished filming our music video yet we decided to start editing as the dead line is creeping up fast and we want to ensure that we get it finished in time and that the editing is the bets it can be! Starting editing will allow us to see if there are any gaps we need to fill meaning we are able to do this way before the deadline, it will also allow us to film any parts again if they aren't good enough or are wrong, as if we started editing close to the deadline and we found that there was footage we are unable to fix in the editing stage this may be a problem. All we are doing is placing the clips in the correct order according to the story board we followed, we also need to ensure that all the lip syncing matches with the music as this is one of the most important parts as it could look very poor if it didn't match throughout.

Filming : Day Two

So today was the day we filmed in our second location. The locations was in a woods next to a pond. Today we managed to get a wide range of different shots for the video including: mid shots, long shots, close ups, over the shoulder shots, panning shots, and shots took on the shoulder mount. On the day we ensure we had everything we needed like props and most importantly the story board as this told us exactly what shots we required and made the day of filming a lot shorter, as when filming our AS video we wasn't sure on what shots we needed to film on the day which made filming take much longer, and this isn't much fun when the weather is so cold!
here are some pictures from today:

Shooting Schedule 2

here is our shooting scheduled for day two!

Filming : day 1

Today was the first day of filming! And we got a lot more done then i was expecting. Today we completed all the lip syncing parts of the music video as it was essential we did these all at once because if we was to go back to it Amy hair and makeup could change and the difference could be easily noticed. The shots that we did were fairly simple and involved; mid shots and close ups. We also filmed for the video we are going to layer up for part of the music video, this includes a large amount of different videos of Amy on top of each other and faded out.

Here are some pictures of the day of filming: 

Risk assessment

This is our first risk assessment for when filming our music video, which will identify any risks that may occur when filming and ensure that we can prevent these risks and cautions of any possible hazards to protect any individuals involved.

The risk assessment has been checked by each participants in our group and has been signed by our teacher which will ensure that all the risks are identified and none have been missed and

un identified.
