Filming the band

We got our band together and into the drama facility we were using and put up the banner we made and set up all the instruments, microphone, lights etc and started filming according to the storyboard. We got a wide range of footage of each band member and experimented with lights, angles and static filming and some tracking shots around the band as well. The lead singer of the band Alex was really enthusiastic and we feel this definitely added to the realism. We made sure everyone was dressed to match our band image research and this again adds to the realitic band image we want to achieve. With all the different angles and shot idea we came up with we think with it intercutting through the video along with the on location shots we have done through the weeks of couples, the finished product will look really good. Bethany is going to start editing the footage together on the next opportunity. We also took promotional photographs of the band for the website, we decided to shoot a lot of them in black and white because Rene noticed a lot of bands with the same genre of our band do this.
