4.2 Behind the scenes


This has taught me alot on filming, that you need to get every little bit perfect, so many cameras need to be involved as well as equipment, relised so much editing is involved and it must a take a really long time.

4.2 Using iMovie


This video has helped me by understanding how to make a video on iMovie, it went through step by step to show you how to put everything together to create the final piece.

4.2 Editing film



In this video i lernt that by taking one shot and another shot to give it a 3rd meaning, this is all from editing, and the effect.

4.2 Sound in film


This has gave me more of an idea on what equipment is needed to make the most of sound using an camera, now i have a better idea on how to use this equipment i will use them in my music video.

4.2 Lighting techniques


I have learnt from this video, as it has taught me i can use different lighting techniques by using a piece of card, cutting shapes out on the card can have a big effect on the whole atmosphere of whatever is filming. I will use this technique in my video.

You could use this document to help you to list the records that you like or have inspired you.







































Name of record



Who made it



What I thought about it









Michael Jackson- Thriller



-Music Video



John Landis directed the music video, he who also co-wrote the screenplay with Jackson.





The video was choreographed by Michael Peters.



I thought it was an amazing music video, it was a good song, well rehearsed, and it must have taken a long time to do. The camera shots were perfect as well as the lighting.









Taken



-Film



This film was produced by Luc Besson.





Directed by Pierre Morel.



This film used many camera shots, showing the effect of violence, this worked well, also the lighting was good, you could see clearly in every scene









R&B classics



-C.D



Various artists have made the CD.



This CD had 2 CDs, with 22 songs on each, the CD. I like this CD because its good music and you can skip to any bit.

4.2 Health and Safety

My fellow production team, camera man and cast have the right to work in a safe, neutral enviroment, therefore it is essential that we have a health and safety list to have knowledge of all safety hazards and avoid them.

Set/Locations: - Central foundation girls schools playground - on the wall - main building - Before we shoot the music video we will need to check the weather forecast for that day previously to avoid any hazards or problem with the camera.


In our first location (on the wall) we will need to make sure all someone is placed in a correct position behind Renee holding her up, to avoid her from falling all the way of the wall when we push her this is to save accidents and injuries. The camera tripod will also be placed in a clear relevant space.

In our second location (main playground) we will make sure that when running we don't trip up the steps, we will have to look where we are going to avoid wasting time and injuries.

4.2 Plan for the peformance

As a performance i will be acting as a bully, first i have to film the first scene, then i will be acting, the music video will be about two girls bulling 2 geeks, the two girls steal the geeks food and ruff them up a little bit, the geeks will then have a day dream about getting back at the other two girls, it will be a bit like a comedy, after the geeks (played by Renee and Abigal) get out of there day dream about beating the two bullies up (Played by myself and Tiyonne) I will run after them into the building.
The song being played will be 'Its a hard knock life' by the musical Annie. I choose this song as the lyrics are relevant to our video.

Our deadline is on Friday which is when we will start shooting.

4.2 Ideas for Record

Ideas for Record





The idea that i came up with is using the song 'Its a Hard knock life' that was used in the film Annie.


I had this idea so in the actual video there will be kids having a 'Hard life' concerning bullies, and getting back at them.


I think this will be a good idea as it goes with the song, and it will have a hint of comedy towards it.
