Schedule:Re-filming Interior scenes
Crew:
Me: Actor

The main objective of the day was to re-film all of the
interior scenes as I had misplaced the memory card and lost all of our previous
footage we had filmed. In a way this worked to our advantage as it meant that
we could perfect all that we had filmed before knowing what went well and what
didn't work well. It also enabled us to add any fresh content that we believed
would help enrich the video and improve it overall. So as a group we decided
that it was best to re film all of the interior scenes.
We decided to film during the half term as it would give us
more time to really perfect all of our filming and also to cover all of the
interior scenes and looking back that really did help us having an entire day
to film with no distractions to take our focus off of the project.
We began by filming the interior scenes which occur early on
in the music video. We started by setting
up the equipment and analysing our storyboard to see how we would plan out
the day and if there was anything we could add to
the video to enhance the viewing experience.
One of the shots we came up with on the day was a shot of
spilled tablets upon the protagonists bathroom floor as we see his feet walk
past. This would take place after the protagonist had picked up a bottle of
pills and threw them to the ground.
This shot cold connote two possible ideas depending on the viewer’s
perspective. One; that the protagonist is on medication and is deciding to
reject the help that is being handed to him almost as a sign of rebellion
against people telling him what he should do. Two; the protagonist is addicted
to pills (much like Eminem was when writing the song ) and by throwing it to
the ground he is trying to break the viscous circle, from research I did find
that drugs are one of the main causes of suicide a problem that is directly facing
our protagonist.
During the day we took two or three breaks to charge the
camera and get some food but apart from that we worked solidly throughout the
day. It would've been more helpful to have more professional equipment for some
of the overhead shots and for some of the lighting but overall that was our
most productive and efficient day of filming.
