Filming the music video- my progress

When beginning the filming for my music video, I had lots of things to consider before jumping into picking up the camera and filming. With the help of my shooting schedule and research and planning I was able to do all of my filming very smoothly.

The first part of my filming went very smoothly as we were filming inside on a day that was bright and so there was good lighting. As well as this, I had direction when taking each shot and gave clear instructions to my actors so that they knew what they were doing.

One of the main worries of my filming was any complications that I may have encountered; with the most possible being a change in weather. This would have proved very difficult for the second part of my filming that took place outside and needed dry and bright weather. Luckily I was able to complete my filming in great conditions, resulting in clear and focused footage.

After filming each shot I rematched the clip in the viewfinder to see if it was up to my standards, resulting in many shots being reshot if they were out of focus, if the camera was shaky or I just wanted it from a different angle. The multiple shots I took proved useful during the editing process when looking through clips as I had many to choose from.

Overall, down to the planning, organisation and scheduling, the process of filming my music video went very smoothly and was very successful; allowing me to move onto the editing process of my coursework.
