So far

We didn't film at my house, as we wanted to keep the outdoors look. We went to Neal's Yard in Covent Garden, which had lots of colourful walls and look great on camera. We shot the lipsyncs again and we've nearly finished both the album cover and website. We hope to post the music video soon!

Group Progress

After our shoot on the weekend, we've watched the footage back as a group and tried incorporating it into the cut we already have. There are problems with some of the shots but we're continuing to piece together the video. If we cannot make what we have work for our piece, then we've arranged a shoot on Saturday afternoon. This shoot will be at Anisah's house which is a different concept to our orignial idea but the new approach seems like a good idea as a lot of the problems we've had outside won't be an issue if we shoot indoors.

We've also got another photoshoot planned for thursday. We'll be shooting in the Seward Studio again and have planned shots that we want for both the website and the album cover - hopefully this will be successful and we won't have to have any more photoshoots.

Lighting

We were unsure exactly how to maximise the potential of the lights we were given on our last photo shoot, and with a new photo shoot coming up today, we decided it would be best if we researched into exactly how three-point-lighting and other lighting techniques work, so we can really make our actress stand out. This video, although not the most high-tec explanation, was some help. We will also hopefully be getting some help from our schools' technichian.
