Filming Day Four 18/12/2013 (Emma)

Today Sabrina and I filmed the 80's style denim scene for our music video. We got this done very quickly because of our previous experience with other shots so we knew what problems we may come across so we avoided them at all costs today. To start with, Sabrina did our female leads make up (Blue eye shadow, bright red lips) and then we styled her clothes how we wanted them. We brought in denim jackets and shirts and I brought a loose piece of denim I had cut off a skirt that we used for her headband.

After we had styled our model, I set up the camera in order for it to be the same distance and type of shot as our previous shots, I did this by checking it against pictures of our old shots.
Through previous experience of filming, we knew that the lighting was sometimes difficult to match to each shot, so Sabrina changed the settings of the box lights while I watched the camera screen to tell her which setting was light enough.
 
We then began filming for our music video, telling our model which dance moves to do to match the 80's denim style. We made her feel at ease by dancing with her and playing the correct song on a phone. We managed to get the filming done much faster than before which is a real benefit in finding times that the room with the lights is free because we no longer take very long.
