Filming Day #2 Review

Today myself and Dean once again geared up for filming, but today we had the addition of Amber who would play Olly Murs's date during the music video. We selected Amber as our cast due to the fact she is actually Dean's partner outside of the production aswell! With this in mind we felt she would fit perfectly into the role as she would be happy to be around Dean and it would create a natural effect which is exactly what I desired.


We took ourselves down to the location selected in Prezzo, this is a local restaurant that is new to the area. We decided that we would film on the tables located just outside of the restaurant in order to achieve a suitable level of lighting and exposure within the shots as the inside of the building has a dark feel, this would not only make it hard to create good shots but it would also not match the upbeat, bring and vibrant feel that we are trying to achieve within the music video. The area in which we shot the video can be viewed in the picture below.


We decided that we would try and fit the vast majority of the shots to the lyrics, lines such as the following are the shots that we tried to achieve -
  • "The salt and pepper pots are getting well into their dance"
  • "Laughing like a lunatic at everything she says"
  • "Tonight I drink wine with the girl I just met"
As you can see in the screenshots shown below, I feel we have really captured these shots well and incaptulated the lyrics correctly, this will create an interesting watch as it will help to correctly tell a story to the viewer.




Having taken part in the second filming session I feel that I have the all the shots that are required to complete the editing post production stage of my production. I will now begin to review the shots again and get a better feel of the video and shots that I have produced.
