Park filming

7th March

We filmed at Ewell Court park for the final part of the music video where he is remembering/ reminiscing of the girl that he wants with him. We took our actor Abbie to the park and filmed the camera from david (the main actor)s point of view, so she was looking directly at the camera talking to it and playing around in front of it so it looked like it was in front of him. The filming of this went well as we got a good amount of filming and really good footage of our actress, the weather was good as it wasn't raining so the equipment didn't get wet and it wasn't too sunny so that the sun wasn't in her eyes whilst filming so we had a good natural light. What didn't go so well is that we brought 2 cameras and the better camera had died so we had to switch the battery from the other camera into the better one, apart from that it went really well.

By having Abbie look at the camera, it engaged the audience making them involved with the music video. The way the camera angles were used, was to show that Abbie was talking to the main band member, therefore creating a memory, which is what the lead is thinking about when singing the love song of Use somebody.
