R&P Post 48: Day 4 of Filming!

Hello and welcome back to another behind-the-scenes post! Today we filmed the fourth 'level of our music video which is the 'Mafia' scene. We filmed in Sainsbury's car park in Colliers Wood, pictured below:

We chose to film here as it has a rather grungy aesthetic that relates to the crime theme of our music video. 

Below you can watch a video from behind-the-scenes, with Sarah talking about how he day went overall:



Below you are able to see some photographs taken from behind-the-scenes:

This group of photos show my group filming some more performance shots of Kati. Unfortunately, today our actor Dexter actually tuned up very late to film. So whilst we were waiting for him we decided to make the most of our time and we filmed  some more performance shots of Kati in order to get a range of these shots so we have lots of footage to work with when it comes to editing.

What went well today?
Today was our most challenging day of filming so far because our actor Dexter was very late to arrive on set. This meant that when he finally did arrive we had very little time to film and were very limited because of this. However, when he did arrive we were very efficient with time and we had in mind the exact shots that we wanted to film. This meant that when we were eventually able to film, we were disciplined and knew what we wanted to film.

What could have gone better?
As previously mentioned our actor Dexter was very late, only arriving on set hours later than we had planned. Although this gave us plenty of time to plan the exact shots that we wanted to film, it meant that when he finally did arrive we only had very little time to film, meaning that we were quite rushed when filming. If we had had more time, we would not have had to rush this scene and we could have had more time to film extra shots.

However, we still managed to film this scene and it is now completed, meaning that we have filmed all of the 'levels' of our music video which is great news! Tomorrow we are planning to film some extra performance shots of Kati at the Southbank again but this time we are going to film around the Southbank and not just on the National Theatre rooftop. Today was quite stressful but we were very efficient when we were able to film and we have almost finished filming our music video now!
