Second time of filming

On the 27th of December we decided to film the house scene, which was situated at my house. My partner and I wanted to film in the snow but since, there wasn't any this year, we decided to film an argument scene at my house. I set up the camera and made a medium shot in front of the couple, so what the audience would see is the boy playing his Xbox while his girlfriend tried to show something to him. However, since he wasn't paying attention to her, she would storm off, so from a side shot I got my partner; Artiola to walk off. Then I set the camera up in the corridor because I wanted the audience to see Artiola storming off and as she did she would walk towards the camera, therefore, showing her emotion on her face which was upset. She then faced away from the camera to show she was upset and so, I did the same technique I did in the park where the boy lost the game, got frustrated so put his head in his hands, and we made him disappear again. We had to do plenty of these shots again and again especially when Artiola would walk towards the camera because she would always end up laughing.

First day of filming

On the first day, 23rd of December me and my partner and a friend of ours went to film at central park in order to film the park scenes. First of all we decided to film the scene where my partner and the boy sat on a swing and did a point of view shot. As they spun around they filmed themselves therefore, catching themselves laughing and having a great time together. The next scene we did was a walking scene, so I filmed a long shot of the couple walking further away from the camera, and then me and my partner decided to make the boy disappear so, I filmed them both standing still and then after 3 seconds I told him to walk off and then filmed my partner again standing still for another 3 seconds so the effect could work when I got the time to edit it. I filmed this scene a couple of times because sometimes my partner would end up moving. Then once everything was done she walked off without him to show that she was remembering her memories she had with her partner, since this video is about how she grieves for her lost boyfriend. The last scene we wanted to film was the couple taking pictures, so I did an over the shoulder shot where the camera could see the boy hugging the girl from behind and them taking pictures with each other on his phone.

Rough cut of Rachel Rhodes - Heartland

This is a rough cut of my video. Some parts are unfinished to it, including the missing titles and most of the video footage.

Create your free online surveys with SurveyMonkey , the world's leading questionnaire tool.

The feedback t question 1 where everyone liked the first rough cut.

There is a variation of answers to this question where some liked the lip synching, camera shots or the acting, though the acting was the best that people liked to watch.

Some said that everything was alright whereas the better answers for me are the part where they didn't like my face when i was singing and the close up shots. This is good because then i can now improve on it in my video.

Most people said that the lip synching needs to be improved which is a good answer because now i can go and look again at my video to spot the bad lip synching, jump cuts and to add some more scenes on the couple. 

Location reconnaissance and photos

I want to use this photo because I was thinking of having the couple walk together in the park and the boy can spin and twirl her around. That way it will kook like they share a cute relationship. Though, what I want to do is make the boy disappear which would look like a good effect because then it will look as if the girl had remembered her relationship she used to share with her boyfriend though, it's only because she's grieving for him. 

I want to use this park and the swings so the couple can run around and go on the spinning wheel in the last picture. That way I can capture a show where I can see them spinning and they can look into the camera. I think I would also, use plenty of point of view shots because it can look like it's coming from their viewpoint. For my music video I want to have the park scene because I think it looks incredibly nice to have a couple having fun in the park. Also I think it looks sweet and makes the video look cute and bring emotion to the audience to show them how the couple used to have fun. That way I can have the boy disappear once the couple start walking so, it will look like the girl was just remembering her memories with him. This is because this video is about how a girl´s boyfriend has passed away.

I would call this the house scene, where I want the couple to be playing video games, and I'd get close up shots of them two. Perhaps I might get a home video shot or i'll get them to have an argument. I think an argument scene would be better because then I can get the boy to disappear and then the girl will be left alone remembering those good times they shared. Therefore, i'll film the part where the couple have a good time and then fade it into an argument where the boy disappears.The next scene I want to have in my music video is a house scene. I want this becuase I want the couple to be relaxing together and spending a nice time with eachother though, also at the end I want the boy to disappear because it will look sad in the video. Furthermore I want to add an argument scene in this video because  it would go great if the couple were argueing and then the girl stormed off and watched her lover disappear, so that way she also remembers the bad times she spent with him and how much she misses that.

Another scene I would have in this video is the couple being together in a lab and doing experiments. I believe this is a nice scene because they´re sharing their moments together in numerous places and I can also make the boy disappear in this scene as well to show how happy the girl was with him and then when he disappears, her face would drop becuase it was only in her memories.

The last two scenes I would want are the park and drama scene which would be used for myself as the vocalist because throughout the video I would be cutting to myself often to show my singing. I would want to sit on the bench in the park scene to show of perhaps my clothing like jeans and a shirt because the genre of the song is country. Then in the drama scene I´d probably wear a dress becuse Rachel Rhodes also wears a dress on her front cover.

What resources you will need

Created with Padlet

Photographs of possible props (why those props and where they can be sourced)

I have my own guitar which i got from Lidl's and I chose this because there's a guitar playing in the background of our chosen song and it also, suits with the genre; country. 

These props can be sourced from Hainault forest for the first picture, a drama studio in my school and London in London. I chose these props because i want to show the audience how the couple spend their time having fun like in London or in a forest playing with leaves. I also, chose the drama studio because they have these specific lights which can also, be sourced from our school and they can be used for me when I'm singing and the studio as a whole makes it look more professional. 

Photographs of possible costumes (why those costumes and where they can be sourced)

This dress can be sourced from Henry Holland and I chose this dress because my artist also, wears a summer dress and I thought that since, I'd be using her song I wanted to wear similar clothes to her. 

This is what the man would wear and I could properly get all of this from Marks & Spencer's since, they sell office wear clothing and perhaps the jacket from Bank or JD. I chose these for the boy because I wanted him to look smart and not scruffy and that he was a caring young man. 

I can get these from Clarks.

 I can get this from any store, most preferably River Island.

 I can get this jumper from Forever21.

I can get this shirt from Primark. 

All of this would be my second outfit for my singing scene and I chose this because the genre of my song is country, and country stars usually wears shirts and jeans with boots therefore, I wanted to fit myself in with the country style. 

This would be the girl's outfit and I could get these trousers from Sports Direct and jacket from Bank. I chose this outfit because it looks nice and girly and she doesn't need to look all dressed up. I wanted her to look normal.
