Today 17th November me Courtney and James began the filming of the project. The cold weather hindered us to do shots perfect as it was to cold to re take loads of shots. The filming I believe went very well as the shots we got I believe may be enough footage and the shots worked well with what we wanted to do. The iPod owner is the scenes that we shot this morning and the only doubt I have is if the beginning shots will work well. If not we will re shoot these shots.
We are still carrying on filming today moving on to the shots with Charlotte our dancing tramp.
Also when filming we decided on a editing technique which was putting all the beginning scene with the iPod owner in black and white but then changing the colour when charlotte puts the headphones on.
Next Filming:
The filming after what was filmed this morning we filmed charlotte being the tramp. I believe that we got some good shots out of todays filming ones that could be used as still shots also. The cold weather was a put of so was hard to get shots perfect as the camera could not be held as steady as possible. The last scene of the music video is the scene where the tramp is dancing without anyone knowing why she was doing it. We had three different cameras filming her at different angles which one camera will be used as CCTV filming.

Model search for 'Dancing Tramp'
Hello,
We were wondering if you could feature as the main character in our A2 Media Coursework as basically a ‘Dancing Tramp’. Our project is a Music Video on a song by the ‘Pigeon Detectives – I’m a Liar’. In the group it is Francesca Batt, Courtney Heary, James Forbes and Connor Barry. We are aiming to film next Wednesday the 17th but are waiting for confirmation from Mr Smith to see what his schedule is, and to see if he can make filming.
Below is the idea of the Music Video that my group has.
My group and I have decided that our final idea would defiantly pursue with the dancing tramp. At the beginning of the lesson we were keen to think of the idea of using a dance group in the video who would randomly be dancing outside of the school. But we have changed this and decided that just the 'tramp' on his own would be much more appropriate and more effective. The ideas that we have decided on is having at the beginning the idea of a man who is in a suit who has the headphones on that seem to be making him sing and dance. He receives a phone call where he begins to be very stressed and runs and drops his iPod. The tramp picks it up and can not get the headphones of this is where he begins to sing and dance around. He begins to dance outside of the school and the kids do not have an idea of what is going on. This is where their reaction would be filmed like the 'T-Mobile' advert. He finally begins to get out of breath and starts to walk of and throws his headphones to the floor. Throughout there will be jump shots of live footage such as guitars playing.
For more information on the Project you could look at any of our blogs they are listed below.
We need you to be able to dance and basically go crazy like the headphones are taking over your body and you can not stop what the headphones are making you do. The main part of the video is you being outside school doors at 3.20 when the kids are coming out of school and you just carry on dancing with no one knowing what is going on and why you are dancing like this. Mr Smith will come out and push you along to get away from outside of school. No body will know what is going on and we will be trying to hide with the cameras so know one will get the idea. We will have different cameras in different angles filming you in this scene. The Video does not fit the song but this is the ironic crazy part of the video what people will not expect to see.
If you are willing to do this then could you please let us know as soon as possible before Monday 15th November. Then we will choose one of the main characters and will let you know the next day. We really need you to be able to not be bothered about who is around you and who is looking at you. And the Video of the dancing outside of school needs to be filmed in one shot so it needs to be perfect.
IF YOU ARE GIVEN ONE OF THESE LETTERS THE IDEA OF THIS VIDEO IS SECRET SO IT IS NOT RUINED.
