Filming

Saturday the 26th of January we went to two of our locations and we filmed several scenes from our storyboards. We moved our indside cabin scene to Abbey's bedroom and dressed it accordingly using candle light and plush cushions to create the romantic mood of the song. The props included the characters wearing fashionable winter clothes, lots of candles, cushions and an 'engagment ring'. These shots were narrative based. We then filmed outside of the cabin using band shots of them performing the boys wore similar clothing to fit in with the boyband stereotype and sang into the camera all performing on different levels. We also walked up to Otford hills to show our out-door winter theme, the boys wore smart coats some wearing scarves. We shot them singing at the camera each memeber having at least one close up or opportunity to sing fitting in with the conventions. We re-filmed scenes and got alot of footage so that we had a range of choice for our final video. We also shot them from different angles and on different levels to see which techniques we could fit in and which would look the best. We still have another location to film and we need to re-film some shots but we have started to edit some of what we have.
