Filming Day - Extra

Today I filmed my extra clips for my music promo. I filmed various different shots of the word 'Pure' drawn in different places and in a variety of ways. These shots will help to cement the concept of 'purity' throughout my video.

I tried various different ways of writing out the word pure and filming it. One of the ways I tried was writing down each letter on a post-it note, however this didn't work as well as the post-it notes would curl up after been taken off the pad so it was difficult to read the letters. I then tried sticker them to the wall and filming them that way, but they would not stick and kept falling off.

I tried using different colours of pens, but I felt that there was too much colour and it didn't fit with the genre or the rest of my music promo. So I only used two colours; pink and black.







I tried to film so time lapse shots of the sky getting darker. I had some problems with my SD card but I eventually got it to work. However after trying it out on my video it didn't look as good and didn't fit as well as I'd thought. The clip was so long that when I sped it up it buffered badly and would play correctly. It was also hard to see what was happening when it got darker so it looked like a still picture.


On Friday I filmed new clips of the drums and keyboard. I had people play the drums and keyboard as it illustrates to the audience how the song is from a band not a solo artist. This is just one of the improvements my focus group suggested to me and will help to make my music promo more relatable to my audience.
