Filming of video

We found our perfect location to film our music video, this was at wray common. Here it is an open green, with lots of trees and a woodland area.
We all met up on a weekend to film it.

First verse:
We zoomed in on Kate's face and as the song lyrics started she turns her head and sings to the camera. Towards the end of the first verse charlotte takes over and the camera pans around her as she is singing to the camera. We used this camera angle as it is showing her moevment and the area around her.

Second verse:
We changed the scenery and had the camera facing a tree, behind the tree was charlotte and kate and then in front of the tree was caroline. We used a full length shot as we wanted a wide angle. As caroline sang to the camera she was walking towards the camera. The camera then pans around her and we then cut it. The next scene was of her laying on a mat and as the song sings 'You think I'd crubmble, you think I'd lay down and die' - here Caroline turns and crumbles into the mat.

Chorus:
We used a wide angle shot to get a full view of wha the girls were doing. We came up with a dance routine for them to do as they sang the chorus.

Third verse:
We changed scene again and all of the girls were sitting on a bench with Charlotte in the middle. We put her in the middle as she is the lead singer and this is very conventional to other music videos in this genre. The first part of this verse was sang by Kate and we zoomed in on her face, the next part was done by Charlotte and the last one was sang by Caroline and we zoomed in on these two aswel.

Musical Instrumental part:
Here we had the girls change into the bright coloured outfits which I have showed in the Fame post before. During this part we had a wide angle shot of the girls doing exercises to add a bit of fun to the video.

Fourth Verse:
We changed scene again and this part was filmed in the woodland area. We used the tracking/ pan shot following Charlotte as she walked backwards through the woodland bit. Towards the end of the verse Caroline and Kate come out from behind opposite trees to join Charlotte. The three of them then turn around and the song then fades out as the girls walk off into the distance.
