Filming on 23rd January 2018

I had previously planned what I wanted to create on this day. I uploaded a post stating all my targets:

• Costume - "Ensuring to portray the casual guy"
• I did focus on the costume in my second draft asking him to wear casual clothes and to direct him how to style them. 
• I did state "Remove the jacket to show the top underneath." However, I chose not to do this in my shot as we were in an outdoor setting and it would reflect the weather.

• Directing his emotion - I asked my actor to portray the idea of losing someone and feeling alone.
• 'I would like to repeat my shots'  - I did repeat my shots in order to create different shots and get better angles.
• 'Complete a side shot' - I would like to create this at a different stage.
• 'Shot of him walking away' - I completed this shot consisting of 1-2 minutes of him walking away that I can edit.
• 'A mid-shot of him walking away' - I didn't try this shot.
• 'A P.O.V shot' - I also need to complete this shot.
• 'Lip-syncing shot' - I am going to use draft one as a place holder to see how much I need to film.

Consistency In Shots (add pictures)

I have decided that when I complete my filming on Tuesday I would like to film each shot three times. The reason I am doing this is to ensure that I have a varied version throughout my different shots.

I will place a marker on the floor so I can mark where I would like to start and end its shot so it is consistent for each shot. A way I can do this is with some tape.

Contacting My Actor.

I have contacted my actor to ensure that filming would be able to be taken place on the 23rd January 2018.

Creating My Production Company.

I have to create a production company for my music video and I have decided to create
BM Productions is a music production company like that of Sony Music.

I have decided to include a website address www.bmproductions.co.uk which will be seen in my music video and my two ancillary tasks.

I have decided to create another web address for my actor whose name is Raymond Michaels with the web address www.raymondmichaelsproductions.com

Creating My Logo.

My actor needs a logo for his company. Therefore, I went onto Photoshop in order to create a logo that would be used inside the music video and two ancillary tasks. I created one for the production company 'BM' and one for the artist.

Changing Female actress.

My female actress has decided she would not like to take part and is rarely available to complete filming. Therefore, instead of finding a new female actress I have decided to put myself in the music video instead.

Changing the costume ideas.

My original costume ideas for the male included:


However, it is was too difficult to ensure that my actor was always wearing the same outfit. Therefore, the actor has chosen to wear black jeans and black shoes and a coat to cover the top half. This would ensure that the outfit was consistent throughout.
