Filming day 2

The footage that was taken place today, was taken on the 29th of December 2017 at Smith's Field, Timperley. As a group we met at 12 pm and started filming at around 12:10pm after having a brief meeting of what shots we're going to include and also setting up the equipment, in order to be ready for the filming session ahead.

During our filming session, We filmed a variety of shots at different angles and in different places of the alleyway. This was all based off our group storyboard, which we created as a group to help us have an idea of what we're going to do. Therefore, we were able to decide the order of each shots, which will help portray the image we want. Due to shots we wanted in chronological order, we were able to save time overall. This is because if we didn't plan of our music video, in between shots we'll be thinking what shots to include next etc, which would've been time consuming. Also, it made us aware of what actions and band members were needed in each shot. Therefore, our music video will look realistic and professional.

Furthermore, we filmed our preperation shots, which were normally 3 seconds long before the actual part was needed and 3 seconds after. By doing this it will help us during the editing process of our music video because we'll be able to edit it and it'll have continuity. Also, it will help us select the high quality shots we want and make sure it looks to a satisfactory level. In addition, it will help us avoid missing out lip syncing parts in the clip too. 

By creating this post, it helped us as a group reflect on what we did during our filming session at Smith Fields and also it will help us identify what we could do better in future sessions. Also it will help benefit us during the editing stages of our music video because by referring back to this it will help establish which footage we need to piece later. In addition, we included a variety of genre conventions throughout the footage, in order for our music video to look realistic and professional.
