Our ideas have chopped and changed dramatically throughout our planning process. We originally plannned to film a section of our video with the dance studio, taking advantage of the lights and backgrounds. However we found the problem with using this space was that it's a very highly used room and therefore very difficult to get enough time to films some decent footage. The longest we were able to film for was a 20-30 minute period that we had to take out of out lunch-time break.
We then planned our final day of filming for Sunday the 14th, we had arranged to film the whole day, venturing to and from our various shooting locations. We met at 12 o' clock and were finally finshed at half past 4. Unfortunately the following day, when we had to return the camera, the group member who was in charge of returning the equipment failed to tell the media department that we had date still in the camera and therefore all of our footage had been deleteted.
We therefore had to improvise and think of a plan. As we were drastically running out of ideas, we had to try and find one of our own cameras to film the piece with as college wouldn't let us use their cameras out of college during half term under any circumstances. We accepted this and began our search for a camera that we could use, and in the end, found a few from friends and family that we could use. Unfortuantely, however, all of the cameras we had were either not compatible or a huge amount of quality would've been lost when uploading the footage. To our fortune, however, our teacher got us premission to film our music video on teacher training day as a last resort. This would give us the full day we drastically needed before next term and we aim to use the time predominantly and to our advantage. Also, of course, we would make sure that absoutely no footage was removed or deleted again to save us time and money.
