Today was the first day of filming my music video.

After school myself and my two actors drove down to the shopping centre Cribbs Causeway to film the scenes that include them both. We had to wait for the lighting to get dark enough and once it did we began filming. In the time leading up to this I briefed the two actors on what their roles involved and the type of relationship they have together. I also made sure all the costumes were correct and that I knew all the shots I planned to film. We began by filming to scenes in and around the car, as I plan for the scenes to be sped up to around 400% the original time, during filming, shots needed to last around 5 times as long as they should in real time.

I then filmed a couple of the arguing scenes at a leasure area by the shopping centre because of the lights in the background that I feel will tie in the opening sequence. I filmed a range of angles of the pair including close-ups, over the shoulder shots and mid shots.

To show a change in emotion I filmed the scenes where the pair are in love at a different location, this was in front of the shopping mall where there is a fountain and a long water stream, as I filmed at Christmas time there is also a lot of background colour and lights.

I also filmed the actors holding the signs that display the lyrics. You cannot see their faces till the end of the video.
