A Good Day of Filming

Today is the day! from planning, researching, to now filming today we get to put our visions into a music video. To prepare for the filming production I used our storyboard to review the order of our music video. When planning our group and I scheduled several days to film. The dates we chose were during Thanksgiving break. This break was the perfect opportunity to go out and film while not distracting us from schoolwork. The day during the break we chose to film was November 23 on a Tuesday. This day was specifically chosen to fit all of our schedules since I had work and other group members had planned as well. We met up at the local Starbucks near my house since I lived the closest to the setting of our music video. The setting we decided on was the Broward County Fair. The beginning of our music video showed three teenagers getting into the car to go to the fair. In The background, there was a Starbucks sign essentially implying that they just got drinks and it's the start of their “good day”. We had to retake this shot several times due to the awkwardness of being recorded. This is something we struggled with throughout the filming production so I had to secretly film our actors Lucy, Jacob, and Willow without them knowing so the video would appear authentic. The traffic to get to the fair was very bad. I took this as the perfect opportunity to get shots of Jacob driving and a shot of the fair while driving past. I used this take as an establishing shot. We spent most of today's production period organizing our scenes and reviewing what was filmed. Allowing us to film another take of a scene or even remove scenes as a whole. This was essential for our next filming day to further continue our music video.
