Shooting in the classroom

We shot most of our music video in the media classroom which was uncomplicated for us because of easy access to the equipment we needed and the high quality lighting. Once we had chosen the right background, we began to finish filming the performance (since we had started it already). At first we started filming still shots for the performance and then our teacher told us to film whilst moving around so that the video will seem more alive and real. We then experimented and tried this out, and it thankfully made a positive difference to our music video. We encountered some problems along the way, one in particular was when the background kept falling down which became irritating and very time consuming. Another problem, we faced was when the lighting became very yellow and unclear for a few minutes so in order to solve this we had to fix the lights so that the bright colours would show clearly. When filming the conceptual we shot a range of shots (high angle, low angle,CU, ECU, long shot and extreme long shots) which involved many of the props such as the chess pieces, finger puppets, clown figure, rubik's cube and the bubble maker. Over the next couple days we were able to finish filming although we finished late we still managed to obtain lots of shots which is very beneficial for us during the editing process.
