On Saturday the 13th of January 2018 filming took place of the recording of the 'mysterious girl', played by Lucy Carter, At King George's Lake, Altrincham. We met just after 1 at around 1:15 pm due to other commitments elsewhere. Me, Jack Davenport and Lucy Carter then discussed what was expected of Lucy. Me and Jack then discussed what we needed to do in terms of shot type and location shots to match our narrative and genre type as well as reviewing the storyboard and lyric sheet. We began filming at around 1:25 pm.
Firstly, we got Lucy to walk to the lake front. We did this suing several shots types thinking of as many as we could on top of the sheet notes we had taken and reviewed. We used shots such as tracking, point of view, medium shot, low angle and many more to help portray the mystery of who Lucy is linking to the song of who it is actual aimed at building on enigma. These shots took around 40-45 minutes to record.
Once we gained the shots we wanted and were pleased with making sure it promoted continuity from shot to shot we recorded Lucy on the waterfront. On a small platform on the waterfront we recorded Lucy displaying here emotions. We decided that the song would signify she is angry to about the circumstances the song sings about being in love but not saying it either. We did this by her throwing rocks in the water to signify her anger towards the situation created within the narrative. We also added close ups of facial features in order to create enigma and a slight but not complete image of Lucy's Identity to the audience. There were also establishing shots taken of her on the waterfront to exaggerate the binary opposition of urban vs rural areas to help portray that due to class differences they can't be together.
This was the final filming session meaning editing is to come next. In the future this post can be reflected to help create the conventions and image to portray our narrative in the music video within the editing stages to make it to its bets potential.
