Journal Four

This week we have started to filming our music video. We have gone through major decisions with regards to what our video will consist of due to the practicality of the idea. As a group, this week, we made the decision to not incorporate the 'Britney Spears' spoof in our video as it has a too ambitious dance routine and the locations and costumes are to hard and expensive to recreate. We started the filming process with the shots that did not need a difficult location or require lots of equipment. This was therefore why we chose to shoot the Queen spoof. We started to film the shot as a four but found it was to awkward to get the right position and record it at the same time. We resolved this problem be shooting the heads individually and putting them together in the post production stage. This proved to be a success as the final outcome was really good. We then decided to start  filming the green screen shots. This happening to be the Justin Bieber spoof. We wanted to make the shots we captured as identical as the real shots used in Biebers video so that the audience could easily make the connection between the two. Once we had done this we choice to take this footage straight to the time line in final cut pro to experiment once again with the green screen chorma key. The final product from the experiment we excellent and what we hoped we wanted. Once we had complete the small section of the music video, we decided to show the subject leader and asking her for feedback. She said that the look of the shots was very good, but the performance was not as good and she thought it could have been over exaggerated a little more, to make look more like a spoof video. The next stage of the production stage is to get all the shots we need then go back and re shot the once that need improvement.
