Today was our first day of filming for our music video, we designated the first day of filming to shoot the polaroid's, and we decided as a group that the location for these shots would be Matlock Bath. We spent approximately 3 hours at this location, from 12pm-4pm. From this we managed to shoot a range of burst shots from many different angles and background locations in order to provide us with a wide range to chose from when putting them into the music video.
Due to the fact these shots needed to be bursts, in order to capture every movement, we used my Iphone to take the pictures, this meant we didn't need to hire any equipment. In terms of props we just needed the artist in day to day clothes, which was pretty simple, Eloise wore a dress, coat, and hat, portraying herself as the average young woman walking through an every day environment.
Here is what we managed to film/capture:
We got 15 burst shots in total, these all conducted of approximately 150 photos in each shot which captured everyone movement. This proved very effective as it was the perfect look we had imagined prior to the first day of filming. By having such a huge variety of every shot we found this really helped us to portray the emotions of the artist when turning them into polaroid's.
The 15 different burst were all taken from different angles and locations around Matlock Bath, some of them featured the artist, and others with the main focus being the setting, the use of Mise-En-Scene ensured we denoted the emotions of the artist in a similar way to what the song is denoting.
We have planned the polaroid's to be a huge, and outstanding part of our music video, which is why getting such a huge variety of shots is important. The next process is going to involve individually turning each shot into a polaroid, and then cutting it down to a short clip, and placing them all together, which is where we will then add it to the music video. This process is going to be very time consuming and rather stressful as the pictures look the same, until played together, meaning ensuring we aren't repeatedly doing the same picture or missing any out will be stressful. However I strongly believe that this effect will pay off by the end of the process.
Below I have attached some images of the different places we took the polaroid's so you can all get the gist of what is happening.
