production log 3

What Have You Contributed This Week?


This week was all about filming the music video. We aimed to film the whole video this week. My role was director as it was my original idea and i knew exactly how i wanted it to look. We did though have some problems that occurred and we felt that whilst some we could work round and overcome, there were some problems that have been very unfortunate. 








How does this fit in with the Production Schedule/ Job Roles/ Overall ideas of the project?


Originally we were on track and in keeping with the production schedule. We did have to film on a couple of different days but that was not a problem for anyone. Whilst we did stay on track at the start of the week and film over half of our music video we did have some bigger problems that have been very unfortunate and harder to overcome. 




Were There Any Problems?

Yes there were some problems, We had some trouble with the locations. During the planning of our music video we assumed that all locations were public and that no permission would be required. However when trying to film at ST Pauls Cathedral we were told that we couldn't film there. The second problem was one of our cast members unfortunately had some extreme circumstances that occurred in her family to which she was unable to film, it did mean that we could not complete filming during this half term period. 



How Did/ Will You Overcome them?


We overcame the problem with the locations by simply using different locations. When we filmed around Buckingham Palace and Green Park as a group we improvised and decided that the use of Marble Arch would be a suitable place for us to film. Of course this change in locations did alter our shooting script, but i am confident that our collective creativity and innovation was sufficient enough that we came up with some really good scenes that will become very good during the post production stages. In terms of the unfortunate circumstances with one our cast members, we have arranged to film at later dates as it is understandable her wishes were to be with her family at this present time. 



What are your plans for the following week?


our plans for this week were to continue to edit the footage we have as originally planned. The only changes would be that after school we plan to go and finish the scenes that are left. As a group of course these events have hindered our progress but we are confident that we can still produce an excellent piece of work even though we are behind schedule.
