In order to prepare to go out and complete our first performance shoot we carried out a test shoot around our school. This was helpful and we have learnt a lot from this process.

Below is our edited 30 second extract from the song.

What went well:

• Most of our shots were in focus.
• The locations we chose were generally in line with the grungy edgy theme.
• We got a range of shots and angles.

Targets for our performance shoot 1:

• Get some more creative shots with even more different angles, framing movement of both the star and the camera itself.
• The lip syncing is not quite lined up in places. This could be better avoided when editing if we lined the lip syncing up first and then just cut between clips.
• Some of our shots are out of focus and badly lit so we will need to be careful to focus the camera and make sure we have good lighting when we are out shooting.
• Use some filters, adjust the lighting of the clips and play with the transitions of the clips when editing.
