First draft of beginning of our music video

We filmed the opening sequence before the music video on Thursday, we filmed at Abi's house as me and Beccy thought her bedroom best suited Tiffany's personality and style.

We found the first shoot slightly difficult as we changed Abi's costume until we were satisfied with her appearance because previously we believed she did not reflect Tiffany.

Location

I have spoke to photographer at my work place about me and Beccy using his photography studio to film for our music video. He is allowing us to use it whenever it is free; this means we can organise times and dates when we can start filming.

Issues are arising at the moment such as when we can film parts of our music video due to either me or Beccy working and when the cast are available. To sort this out we are going to contact the cast over Facebook on the event page which we set up a few weeks ago to sort out: times and date.

This studio is perfect for our music video as it has a large backdrop with a choice of white and black colours. There is plenty of lighting: a large window allows in natural light into the studio but also he had six powerful lights available for us to use, this will give us a more professional look to the video if we get perfect lighting, to to this we will simply experiment until we are happy with the outcome. As it is a large studio it allows plenty of movement so we can have dance sequences and experiment with camera angles. There is also plenty of room for more than one person in the frames and props can be present.

Originally we were going to use green screen for our music video but me and Beccy think this will be difficult and time consuming to use for our music video so we thought we would simply using a plain backdrop so that focus is on the girls in the video and no distractions are present. To make the video more entropic we we add text over the clips which is possible to do in Adobe Premiere Pro which will just as effective.
