Location Shots- Behind the Scenes Shots

This is another location that we chose it is a piece of artwork in the drama corridor in our school, we wanted our music video to be simply so that's why most of it is filmed in the plain white exterior that the school's gallery gives us. However when we use other locations we like them to be bright and strange like this one, so you wouldn't notice it was filmed in a school.
This is a shot of the tripod down low, we used this low angle when filming Molly singing as the angle shows off her dancing her costume and the location to the best. We did use other angles such as a close-up of Molly singing by the cracked mirror effect.
This is just another angle of what I could see whilst filming from a low angle.
This is a behind the scene shot of me filming Molly, it was taken by Si Hin as he was acting as a runner helping with props and setting the shots up with me so that we got the best angles and locations.
This is another location it is a small picture that a student in our school made for their exam artwork. I liked the idea of using it as it fits our bands ethos of being natural and serene. However the lighting in this shot is rather bad, Si Hin will hopefully be able to lighten it up in final cut pro.

This is another location, the reason in which we could only start filming in the gallery in our school at the end of December is because of the Alternative prize at our school. This piano is an installation piece by one of the students and we were able to film next to it. It adds to our bands ethos of being in to their music that it is all about the instrumentals and lyrics.
We filmed Molly just singing by the piano and this is what it looks like from the front, the shot we had was a mid-shot that was tilted to look a little bit like a birds eye view shot also. We had Molly lip syncing a few lines from the song here.
This is a behind the scenes shot of what it looked like, Molly sat in the blue chair to give the illusion she was able to play the piano. However we were not allowed to touch the piano as it was a piece of artwork, I think how Si Hin and I set up the shot helped our illusion perfectly.
This is a behind the scene shot of Molly waiting as we were finishing up on setting up our shot. This is a wide angle to show the amount of space we had to play around with we did end up tightening up the shot to make it look far more realistic.
This is just a shot of Molly waiting whilst we set up our shot.
Another shot of Molly waiting, I took this photograph whilst Si Hin changed the batteries in the camera because I wanted to display the other work that was in the gallery, to prove how we had to tighten up our frame to not get it all in.
This is a view of what Molly would see when she was sitting down performing for the music video.
This is another shot to prove the space in which we had to make the shot look professional and realistic.
A similar shot to the last, to show how intimate the shot had to be in the end.
This is another location within the gallery, it was the only plain wall left in the gallery during the prize work. We filmed Molly lip syncing here and falling from a chair, this shot in particular worked well and will be used within our music video.
This is just another angle of our new location to again show the true amount of space we had to work within.
I took this photo as i liked the use of the sheets on top of the piano and the art work behind Molly. It shows the tiny factors within this shot.
Just a shot of the tripod and what it will look like when we start shooting our scene.
This is just a shot of Molly rehearsing for another scene, in which she would have to be spinning and in the editing process we will slow the shot right down.
This is again the view in which Molly would view from where she was sitting and about to perform from.
