Reflection on Third Day of Filming

After what happened on our previous day's filming we decided that the best thing to do was to make some drastic decisions's. This decision entailed scrapping the Nikon camera and simply using a iPhone. The reason for this was because we previously knew that we obtained some high quality footage in our foundation portfolio's from our iPhones, so  the decision was simply a no brainier.

Due to the pure disappointment in which we had with pretty much all the footage in which we captured over the two days of filming we decide that we was going to leave nice and early in attempt to re-film the whole music video. We set of and started filming all the different shots/angles in which we previously did along with various additional shots, and a stronger focus in terms of scenic shots as well. On this occasion the only aid we had to help us filming was a SELFIE stick. We was quickly surprised on how effective using the SELFIE stick was in terms of capturing our footage as we could retain maximum security majority of the time, but it also gave us another dimension in terms of angles we could use. After visiting all locations to re-film the entire production and after a long day with vast amounts of camera work, we was ready to return and once again upload our footage to the Mac PC.

On review we was instantly shocked of how good the quality of the footage in which we capture was in terms of stability, lighting and resolution! On this occasion after much practice we managed to nail the lip syncing elements so they where extremely accurate and as a overall result we where very pleased. From this the majority of the filming elements where complete to a high standard minus some green screen footage. This meant that we decide to import our new footage into Final Cut Pro and the editing process would start to begin !
