Shoot 5 - Narrative Comments

We filmed around the Tunbridge Wells locations relevant to our video, e.g. the grove park and around the high street. Initially the shots appeared acceptable, as we filmed in the same light and camera conditions are we did during our recci of our narrative location. Yet, when we uploaded and captured the footage, some clips appeared too dark, as we could not distinguish the outline of the protagonist's body from the shadow and outlines of the surrounding street furniture.

In order to deal with the problems, we have applied the 'brightness and contrast' tool to the narrative slides and altered the settings so that the outline quality of the footage is obvious and acceptable as music video footage, and the transfer is not obivous.

(26th January 2009) the majority of footage is in place and ordered to the stroyboard. We now want to film a variety of filler shots for both the narrative and peformance sequences to 'fill-in the gaps'. The narrative will be set at the same locations, just changing the light source to adust to natural light within the shots and the performance will be in the drama studio, where the solo performance shots were, yet the performance will be whole band footage to 'fill-in' the gaps within the narrative of the verse and chorus.
