Filming in Bristol

Our filming in Bristol was of our actor Mason and the scenery. The filming with Mason in was for the narrative and the rest of the scenery we planned for the shots for the chorus. The weather was dull but it didn't rain so it meant we could still film. We also had the tripod to make our filming smoother and we could have static shots. It also helped with moving the camera about with the motion of the actor. We didn't take the skate board which was one of our props because we felt that it wasn't needed. This was due to the change in our specific song audio which didn't have the skating noise on the beginning of the song.

We managed to film all of the shots for our narrative in Bristol city centre and even more than we really needed which will help us when editing as we can have plenty of shots to work with especially if our other shots don't look as good and we need to replace them. This saves us having to back out to film which could waste time as we could have been editing. We took shots of him travelling to and walking around Bristol. We also took some shots of the harbor, small festival, monuments, bear pit and the city centre.

The problems we encountered were that even though our actor could act well he struggled with the lip syncing as he couldn't put the words together well. This would have made editing difficult as we couldn't see it clearly. This has altered our music video slightly as we decided that we would only have him act and have a separate person to be our singer in a studio.
