Filming the music video


On the first day of filming our music video, we went to the iconic land of Winterville at Victoria park in Mile End where we captured the footage of myself and a fellow peer acting like two people in love  in a romantic and stereotypical place for couples to go to. Based on the concept of our chosen soundtrack, we then made the decision to have alternative shots of me in the same places and doing the same things in the venue but without Stacey my peer to imply that we are not together anymore. To finalise this we then took some anonymous shots of other 'real life' couples present at the attraction, and then companioned this with an eye line match of me looking on at the couples in a deflated manor. Hopefully, when we come to editing this segment of our music video, it will be evident to our audience that we have gone through a break up and they understand the message we are attempting to convey.




These are pictured examples of me and Stacey at Winterville where we are together in the same place and then a transition using a fade effect to me alone in the exact same place looking sad and deflated. We believed this to be an obvious and effectively simplistic in conveying the meaning of our video to our audience.




These are some of the mesmerising attractions at Winterville that really inspired us to do some filming at the venue. It is unique and relevant to our music video and different from our other settings which I believe will enhance the quality of our final piece of coursework.

The footage that we recorded at Winterville was used in our final coursework piece and was image of the happiness and then the conflict between my character and my peer Stacey and then showing how I am left lonely towards the end of the track. This filming date was successful as when we came to editing our music video we found that we had captured enough footage to use in the dimensions of our work.
