Weekly production log 5

What have you contributed to this week? In this week, me and my partner managed to finish all of our paper work, and have got the most hardest shots completed, our paper work was a major part of the planning side of our music video, planning things like location Reccies and job roles, was something that needed to be done in full detail, because when we filmed, and for example using London as an example, if we didn’t plan anything in advance we would of end up going back for a second time, and sticking to the budget, we knew that traveling cost us most of our expenditure We also managed to get our cast and crew done in full detail, because of our actress, Taylor, is also producing a music video and we have understand that she has to prioritise her music video as well, so we arranged dates with her where we can complete all of our filming. So after doing all of this we managed to get a date where us and Taylor will be able to film, and on the Friday we went to the south bank and got the establishing shots for the opening sequence for the music video.

How does this fit in with the production schedule/job roles/overall ideas for the project? All the things, such as the paper work we completed this week, play a huge part in the planning of the music video, hence the reason why we had to get it done in full detail. So when we filmed on the south bank we knew exactly what we had to do, and with it being a tourist attraction we had to make sure there were no complications with people.

Where there any problems? We only faced one problem, and this was mainly based on people, and like I said the south bank being full of loads of people, which was expected, we had to get our filming done on time, and very fast, for example when we had to do a shopping spree shot on bond street, we had to wait 10 minutes for the path to be free so we could film.

What are the plans for the following week? The following weeks plans are pretty much simple, the London shots we got this week, will be uploaded and edited to see if we need to go back and see if any improvements are needed, but as far as me and my partner have planned, we aim to get the local area and park shots completed within the start of the week and upload and edit them by the end of the week.
