Production

Task One
The production of the first task was quite straight forward, i was in a group of two and we recorded the footage in around 10/15 minutes, as we were aware that the task was just for fun, we shot it in around 3 takes. Of course depending on how demanding the task is it would take a lot longer to record and shoot the actual thing.
The main problems that we had were that the camera angles were wrong and we were recorded either from a tilt or at the wrong level and also the lack of professionalism; both me and my partner began laughing during shooting and we were also quite embarrased to sing out aloud.
I think that if we overcame these issues our video would seem more professional.

Task Two
This video shoot took a lot longer and was spaced over around 3/4 lessons; this is due to the fact that we had to capture many different scenes both indoors and outdoors. I think that whilst shooting this video i felt more relaxed and less concious during my scenes, which created a more realistic and professional effect, as did the rest of my classmates.
At first most of the people were quite shy so it took a while to get certain things right and accurate to the real music video, as well as this there were also quite a few outtakes in which some people weren't performing accurately, such as dancers in the background and the pencil scene, where the pencil shot out sight.
I think that due to the amount of planning that we had, everything ran smoothly and everyone brought in the correct props on the day that it was needed. I also think that when i am to do my own music video, i will do a lot of research and planning, so i know what needs to be done and also when, which would make the whole project run more smoothly.
