Shoot 2 was our first narrative shoot, we chose to shoot this during our summer break, as we knew it ensured that we could find a day where the weather would be on our side. Initially it was windy during the shoot, so we relocated to an area where it was sheltered and our shots would not be affected by the wind.
This shoot is going to be the clips in our music video where the main female character has flashbacks to her teenage years and the easy life she had that was taken for granted. The shoot consisted of our two models, both in the age frame we were opting for. The Mise en scene of our shoot worked very well, both models were wearing very casual but edgy styles, the monochrome outfit of the color green on our female model represented the growth that she was going through, but also her connection to nature at the time (which she does not feel she has, as she grows older), the quirky pattern also highlights her youth, which later on in our music video will contrast to when she has grown up.
WHAT WENT WELL?
- The mise en scene fitted the narrative of the music video well.
- We worked well as a group to get a variety of shots with different angles.
- We ensured that we had good lighting for the shoot.
- The location for the shoot fitted the vibe of our music video.
WHAT WENT WRONG?
- There was not a clear story within our footage.
- Overall organisation.
- Needed to cover more footage during the shoot.
- A wider variety of angles could have been used.
