CONSTRUCTION - FILMING

We filmed our footage over 3 days. We had a few problems with the availability of some of the members of our 'band', and this was made clear as we had to step in and play an instrument each.


When we started filming, we felt that the lighting in the room was too white. we felt it looked very clean and didn't fit the genre we were going for. we didn't have enough filters of the same colour we desired to cover every light, so instead, we put the filter over the camera, which filtered every colour in the room. we put this on with sticky tape and it held very well. It did not ruin the quality of the shot, or put it out of focus.
These are the shots with and without a filter:

We felt that using a range of angles was very important. the rooms in which we used to film were very small, so it was hard to get many angles. There was not room to stand on something in order to get very high shots, so we tried holding the camera, attached to the tripod, above our head. When we watched it back we found that the camera was very unstable, so the shots did not look very good. The shot itself did not fit in to the video anyway, so we probably wouldn't have used the shot, even if it was stable.
