Filming

In today’s recording session I filmed Sheriece and Stacey using two cameras and set them up in two different positions. One was set up in front of them- mid shot and the other was a high angle shot with a slight over the shoulder. We remembered to burn the track on a CD so that Sheriece and Stacey could sing at the same time and pace of the track. We also used a studio light as it improved the lighting and overall presentation of the filming. We filmed in a classroom as it related to the lyrics of the song and the audience would recognize that we were in a school- with the tables and chairs in row along with computers in the background.

We decided to set the shots up so that Sheriece and Stacey (the band members) would be sitting at a desk, acting like there were doing work and then directly singing to the camera with energetic and happy facial expressions- performing to the audience and engaging them.

Drawing again on our stop motion ideas, we filmed a stop motion sequence that we would use in our music video- it was a mid shot of a piece of paper on a desk with writing on it- relating to the lyrics and band.
