Location Shots and Behind the Scenes

This first shot, is our first location for our singer Molly. As the gallery is still in use at the moment we are scouting for locations around school that look interesting. This is just one of them, it is in the upstairs corridor next to the sixth form common room. The glass wall and it's cooling colours and texture add a nice contrast to Molly's crazy dance scene.

This is just a photo of Molly beside our first location of the day, we took a few tester shots on a still camera to see just how she would appear in front of the wall and if it looked good. We decided that this worked well but that the sunlight was too strong behind her so we had to move along to a similar wall but just further down the corridor.

This is just a behind the scenes shot of Libby setting up the camera and tripod and framing the scene for Me to then start filming Molly's scene. Libby was also playing our song off of her Ipod so that it would be easier for Molly to do her lip syncing.

This is just another behind the scene shot of me and Si Hin in between filming, we were conferring with Libby of what we should film for today referring back to the storyboards constantly.

This is our next location for the day, we found this artwork in the science corridor in school a little while ago. We thought it would fit the sadistic and crazy stance our lead singer has to love and the heart. We may use this location again to film in front of as it is a great backdrop. Molly was simply dancing crazily in front of it and acting as if she was stalking her prey.

This is a shot that we use in our music video to establish the emotions she has link back to her heart and are to do with love. The heart is a symbolism we want to appear throughout of music video through various different allegories such as this and the heart shaped pinata we are going to make.

This is another shot of our location but again with Molly standing in front of it so we can see how it will work with all of the other micro-features. Such as the mise-en-scene Molly's costume and her make-up and particular cinematography, as we realised this background looks far better in a wide shot.

This is a still of Molly's dance scene taken from behind the scenes, by Libby. Just giving a taster of the sort of acting that shall appear in our music video. Just how flamboyant and eccentric it is.

This is another still taken from behind the scenes of Molly's dancing, these stills do act as evidence for us but also are a good way for use to make sure it all looks exactly as we want it. Just in case we decide to film there again we can know what we want.

Again this is another still of Molly dancing, from behind the scenes.

This is just another behind the scene shot of Molly's dancing, but cropped so we can see what the shot would look like if it were not a wide shot anymore.

This is the final still of Molly dancing from behind the scenes, again it is cropped so we can see how it works and if the allegory of the heart is still prominent.

This is a behind the scenes shot of me filming Molly's dancing scene from another angle. We chose to film her from the front and to either side of her.

This is another behind the scenes shot of me filming Molly, but from my perspective how it looks on the HD Flip camera.

This is our final location of the day, it is another piece of artwork we liked and found in science. It is again another allegory for the heart in relation to literal love and "heart ache".

                 

This is our last behind the scenes shot for the day of Libby filming Molly in our final location. Molly was lip syncing again in this scene the lyrics "Zing Boom" we will probably film again here.
