Filming Schedule

When beginning to film, I decided it would be best to create a film schedule as it made it easier for myself to allocate different time slots to different areas of the music video. Underneath is the schedule for my filming:


Saturday 15th November: The morning will be sent rehearsing the song lyrics and making sure all words have been learnt. Late in the afternoon make-up and clothes can be worked on. The evening will be spent filming the sections of the music video which feature Charlie in the cellar.


Saturday 29th November: Late afternoon we will have a run-through of the words ensuring she still remembers them. Make-up and costume will then follow. Today's filming will focus on the sections of the music video where close-ups are on Charlie singing the complete song.


Saturday 6th December: By now the lyrics should be known fairly well, however we will still do a run-through. In the evening before it gets dark, filming will be focused on the outdoor sections in the music video where Charlie is stood in front of a green fence dancing. This section won't include lip-syncing, priority is just having fun.


Saturday 13th December: Once again run-through of lyrics. Filming section of the music video in the woods, this section is partially lip-syncing and also her messing around. Filming at sunset to avoid the scene being too bright.


Throughout the filming schedule I decided it was best to keep all filming designated to a Saturday. This meant that we had the whole day to prepare, and myself and Charlie had a specific time to film, meaning we could avoid plans clashing with filming. With having only one person in my music video it does make it a lot easier to arrange days to film as we only have ourselves to work around, as oppose to having many different people trying to organise something. Whilst filming some of the outdoor sections we did come across the typical issues of weather, we were close to postponing the filming however the weather cleared up quickly allowing us to stick to our allocated time schedule.
