Final Filming For The Music Video

       The day before the break, we made a plan to film. We got a camera from school, and discussed our plan. We had a plan, but I was going to be gone. We knew filming over break would be hard, but we had an idea of what we wanted. I would be gone, so we had to film only things without people in it. This meant we could do shots for the first 30 seconds or so. This was hard because we had to jump around filming and skip what we could not do. We had to make a detailed plan of what shots we could film, Otherwise, we got so confused we did not know what shots we had and didn't have. This preparation could have been very useful going into the project. But once they got settled in they were able to get the shots they needed so they were not wasting time.
During their filming, the process was slow. Neither of them can drive, so they relied on parents. This made the timing off because no parent wants to sit there for hours to film. This forced them to hurry and in turn possibly miss shots. Another issue this created was shaky shots. They had to move quickly, often not having time to take a shot over again, which may mean they have bad shots. We have not taken the footage off the camera yet, so we are not sure. However, we have allowed plenty of time to re shoot if need be. We still need to rent a camera for one more day, once I am back, we need to shoot shots of me and the group. This will be easy as I can drive, meaning we can take our time and not rush shots.
       For our final filming session, we already have a set plan. We want to go to a church, and get the shots of all of the members. We all also have agreed on what we will be wearing. This preparation will hopefully help us get all the shots, and not waste time. Another reason I think this last day will go so smoothly is because Alex lives across the street from a church, making travel a breeze. We all also live within 10 minuets of each other, making travel even easier. We plan to finish filming tomorrow, leaving 2 days to edit. This was rather tight with time, but we are getting it done. We are all good at editing, and don't think we will have any issues. Therefore, I have no reason to believe we won't be done by Friday.
