Filming problems:

During both our shoots so far we have encountered some problems that have caused us to change some of the initial ideas we had for our video. Whilst shooting our inside shots we found it difficult to syncronise our actors when switching off the lights by the side of the bed. We resolved in changing their actions in the shot and had our producer (Ellie G) on the floor by the side of the bed switching the lights on manually. We also had some problems when filimg in London, such as gaining permission to shoot in certain shops on Oxford Street. As we were unable to shoot what would have ben a lengthy section of our video we had to quickly think up another idea for a replacement shot. We all worked together to come up with extra ideas just in case this problem occured again. On observation whilst filming in London we also found that some of our locations were not as we thought they would be, e.g. the beach by the Thames. We all agreed that it would be too hard to film these shots to a good standard and have decided to replace them with better and more accesable shots. Because of this our animatic storyboard will notbe the exact same as our final music video, however we are happy with the decisions we have made and are looking forward to continuing filming.
