Shoot 2 Reflection (narrative + more performance)

For our second shoot which was equally narrative and performance based we had 3 main locations – the cliffs, inside with a white background and the bath. This gave us a huge range of contrasting shots which we can choose from and use throughout our music video. All of these locations worked out really well and we got good footage from each. The bath and white wall we chose as settings for more performance shots whereas on the cliffs we tried to capture clips presenting loneliness which is key to out narrative.

What went well – 

  • The MES was successful as we had different effective costumes for each change in location all of which worked with the genre and themes
  • we got a variety of close up and long shots
  • we got a lot of footage which we can now select our favourites from when editing
  • the cliff footage was very effective at presenting loneliness

What could be improved – 

  • we still ended up filming more of performance footage to fill gaps and need to focus on getting the remaining narrative footage as well
  • some of the footage from the cliffs came back out of focus which was a silly mistake
  • we need to keep following our plan to make sure we are getting all of the required shots we need and not going off the plan
