Production Update 9 - Filming our Lipsync Track

On Thursday after school we filmed out lipsync track in the drama studio at school. We used the same techniques as the first time we filmed in there. We used a projector with a video playing in front of me, to look like an overlay. It took us a few takes as the song is by a Spanish band, the lyrics are in English that isn't quite correct so we the lyrics were hard to get completely right. To make sure we had this covered we filled a wall with the lyrics printed out on paper behind the camera, to make it look like I was looking at the camera, whilst still reading the words. We also filmed from an angle to the side so we can vary our shots.

How I read the lyrics during filming.

However, we have had some troubles since then. We can't upload our footage to a site where we can share them so we can upload the videos into premiere. I would have to edit these clips in myself, although this is also a problem as I don't have a copy of our edit as of recent. To resolve this myself, Billy and Mollie will edit in our free lessons tomorrow before our lesson, which is our deadline.
At this point we are also missing shots of the beach, but we plan on doing these shots in the half term break as then we can all be free to go. Below are some screenshots from our videos that we filmed on the Thursday. We didn't film this on time as we planned to have finished filming by 15th October, however this was not a problem.
