Day 2 of Filming (7/12/2014)

I went to a mound near Wolfreton school to get some footage filmed. My friend Danny has a busy work scheduled so it was difficult to find a time he was able to film but luckily he has Sunday's off and we were both free to do some filming. I got the end part of the performance finished as for Christmas I am aiming to complete the last quarter of my video so I started with these shots. Also for this set of shooting my friend Will came down to assist me by holding the storyboard sheets and playing the lyrics for Danny to mime to.

For these shots I had originally want to bring a microphone and microphone stand. However, I did not have access to a microphone stand and could not find one so I was unable to do this. For the microphone I used a Singstar microphone but had Danny hold his hand over the Singstar strip in order to make it look more realistic.

I faced a problem with shooting in that Danny was unsure about miming originally. However, after I reassured him that his singing would be muted and that I would be the only one to hear them he was willing to sing. I am very grateful for this as it will make lining up the song easier. Another problem I encountered was that Danny was struggling to remember the lyrics to the song. I had sent Danny the song over FaceBook but he didn't have enough time to listen to and learn the song.However, we were able to get passed this by going through the song lyrics immediately before we started filming meaning he only had a few worlds to remember at once.

Overall I believe this was a successful day of filming even if due to the late start I wasn't able to get all the shots I wanted to get on the day. However, I managed to get all the shots I needed and the other shots can be taken at a later date.

On this day I got shots; 3,4,63,76,77,81,82,83,89,94,96
