Editing - 25/02/14

Today we uploaded the footage we reshot of the 1950s housewife opening. We are a lot happier with this footage that we were with the original, it looks more professional as well as the fact that it allowed up to develop the opening a bit more than we had. We made several improvements to the shoot and made sure that we wouldn't have to reshot it again. We now have a great amount of shots to work with.

Improvements

  • Change to Katy's outfit - No cardigan 
  • Bigger cake to have more of an impact when it hits
  • Change to the Radio - More old fashion looking to suit the time period 
  • Added dialogue to make the opening easier to understand 
  • Change to Taran's outfit - More formal

The only issue is it may make the opening longer than we had anticipate and this could potentially be an issue.

Filming - Issues

We planned to film the powder paint party today. However, due to the majority of people we needed to be involved in the scene being unable to attend, we have postponed filming to the 25th/26th of January in the hopes that more people will be able to make it and that we will therefore end up with a more realistic-looking 'party' (more than 5 people there).

Filming


Today we went up to London to film some shots of our artist lip syncing to the song in front of famous land marks. Unfortunately we lost some time out of the day due to people being late, but we still managed to film the majority of what we needed to get done, only missing out on filming some scenes in Camden due to the light fading. However, these shots can be easily picked up later, so it's not too much of an issue. Further issues included forgetting some of the necessary parts for the tripod, however I don't the we really needed the tripod as handheld shots achieved a better result as we were able to move around the artist and get more interesting shots. We learned throughout the day which way to film the artist achieved the best look, with the first shots having slightly too much movement - to the last shots still being visually interesting but not moving around so much as to disorientate the viewer.

Also during the day we took photos from each location for possible use in our digi-packs. My favorite photos being the ones taken at the skate park by Nicola.
