Filming the Band

We finally got around to filming in PDH. We also got the instruments and a smoke machine, however the people we originally intended to use in the band did not arrive, so we had to improvise and use mainly girls and Steven. Also, the smoke machine did not work out how we intended, as it did not stay on the floor, instead rised above the band so, the camera couldn't see some of the faces clearly. This did not create the atmosphere we were hoping for.
Also we found the song online and used this to help the band to know where they are in the song. Also it helped the lead singer to lip singing along to the song.

We filmed the song all the way though in one position, this will be used as the base for our band scenes but we will be cutting to close ups and different angles as well. We filmed these after we filmed from the front, but because the camera was hand held this caused problems, as our footage is very shaky. Although their are small bits we can use within this. But we will film the band bit again at a later date making sure that the camera is steady. also we will set up three cameras all around the band so we will get still footage from different angles, at the same time we will be using a hand held camera which will allow us closer shots and experimental angles and shots.
