TASK 10: FILMING

PRODUCTION SCHEDULE:

WHEN :
Thursday 11th November @ 11.15
WHO:
Actors - Jamie Stanton
Filming: Harriet Matthews
Props: Clapper board for first shot, cap, chalk (for clapper board)
ALSO DV camera, tripod.
WHAT:
I will be filming the opening shot of the clapper board. The song has three beeps at the beginning, on the third beep the clapper board will clap. I am also going to be filming shots 2,3,5,6 and 7, the boy will be performing in all of these shots. Shot 2 will include 4 separate shots of the male, the first of his feet and the floor, the second of his feet and trousers, the third of his trousers and top and the fourth of his head facing towards the ground. Shot 5 will be a long shot of the male, he will face the opposite way so his back is towards the camera and will throw his cap on the floor. The cap could have been a present from his girlfriend, or something that reminded him of her. For the sixth shot i will use a close up shot of his cap on the floor, as he is walking away. This could symbolise that he is ready to move on and leave the past behind him. For the 7th shot I will place the cap on the floor and will spin in stop motion, so between shots i will have to move the cap.
WHERE:
I will be filming all of these shots in and around Sutton, some may be filmed in Sutton Park and others on the streets, and town center. I shall film all the shots outside before it gets dark.
HOW:
For shots 2 and 3 the boy will be static, for shots 5 and 6 he will be facing the opposite direction and walking away.
Camera Angles I will use:
Vertical Tracking - I will move the camera up and down on various shots, so you can see the full view of the boy or of the scene.


WHEN:
Tuesday 16th November @ 1.30pm
WHO:
Actors: Jamie Stanton
Filming: Harriet Matthews
Props: Different changes of clothes to show the passing of time
ALSO DV camera and tripod
WHAT:
I will be filming all of the shots that the male actor is in on his own. This will include shots 2,3,4,5,6,9,11,12,14,15,16,18,20,21,22,23 and 24. I will be using a variety of different shots to capture the actor from as many different angles as possible. I also wish to film some extreme close ups and close ups of the actors face to show the emotion been protrayed. Whilst filming, i may also try some shots I havent used before, such as high angle and low angle shots.
WHERE:
I will be filming the majority of these shots in Sutton Park, not far away from college. This is an ideal location as it has many different elements and a variety of looks within the park as it covers such a large area. As its so big, hopefully we wont get any interruptions of people walking past like I previously have. The location is very open and spacious, helping to create a sense that the actor is alone in the wilderness and lonely.
HOW:
Camera Angles I will be using-
Medium Shot: My first few shots will be medium shots of the actor, showing his whole body in three different shots: One shot of his feet, one shot of his legs/trousers, and the third shot of hiss upper body with his head facing down.
Long Shot: Long shots will be used quite often as i intend to capture the whole of the actor. As its a performance based music video he will be moving around a lot.
Hand Held: I will use some hand held shots to give a shaky effect as if someone is actually with him filming.
Extreme Close up: I will use this for shot number 22, where you see tears dripping down his face, This gives the actor the chance to shot the audience his true emotion.

WHEN: Tuesday 23rd November @ 1.30pm
WHO:
Actors: Jamie Stanton
Filming: Harriet Matthews
Props: Different changes of clothes to show the passing of time
ALSO DV camera and tripod
WHAT: I will be filming all of the shots that both the male and female are in, this will include shots 8,10,13,17 and 19. All the footage will be made into black and white to show that it was in the past, almost as if they are reminiscing.
WHERE: I will be filming all of these shots in Sutton Park, not far away from college. However I will travel to a different part of the park, so I dont have the same background and surroundings as the shots I captured last week. I have found a bench in the park that I am going to use for shot 19, when editing I will create a layering effect, so there are two different shots shown together.
HOW:
Camera Angles I will be using-
Long Shot: The majority of these shots will be long shots, so that the audience can see exactly what is happening and be able to follow the story. Also i have to use these shots as I will be trying to create a layering effect on two of the shots, and will need the space in the shot to help me do this.
Close Up: I will be using a close up shot for shot 17. The actors will be holding the camera infront of them and talking to each other, smiling and laughing. By doing so this gives a really nice effect that they have captured their own footage.
