Yesterday's filming- Thursday 22nd

Yesterday, I did some filming in the park with Ellie in school in 4th and 6th lesson. However, I did not do much filming but only filming for the last chorus of the video due to the lack of time I had yesterday and also the rush of coming back to school. However, I have got some footage filmed that I can use to edit with for the last chorus in my music video. It was also a good day to film as the weather was hot which helped with the filming. For the first part of the chorus, I had Ellie walking in the field and lip syncing the lines with the use of a long shot. With the lines of 'life is a maze and love is a riddle', I decided to film circling Ellie to add different shots and variety to my music video but also it focused more on her face and expressions. This made it more interesting and capturing. For the last line of this first part of the chorus with 'I don't know why', I filmed Ellie from the back walking off on the field to convey her confusion. For the second part of the chorus, I got a close up shot of Ellie lip syncing the first line, 'I'm just a little girl' which I do not think I am planning to use as I feel that it did not look as good. For the line, 'lost in a middle', I filmed Ellie spinning around to enhance the feeling of being lost which took many attempts to film. I also filmed her from the back skipping away, which would go at the end of the chorus, which was quite hard to capture as she was skipping quite fast, making it hard to film.
Today, I uploaded the footage on the Mac and found that it was not a lot of footage but the footage uploaded are still useable and would help me with editing. Even though it was not a lot of footage, the filming was quite good and the footage is enough to be edited to the last chorus of the song to help further my progress of my music video.
