Editing

We had aready been experimenting with the effects that we were intending on using for the video. These being primarily the 'extract' effect for the close up singing scenes, the black and white effect - also with the use of turning down the brightness and up the contrast. The use of the 'time stretch' tool to both speed things up and slow things down backwards and forwards. We also experimented with putting text over the top, an idea we had not originally come up with. We felt this worked well and added more depth to our video.

Band shooting

We filmed the performance shots in our school drama studio as we had planned, by moving the partition walls around we were able to create a blank background to which we could perform on. We moved the instruments into the room and set up two cameras ready to shoot. We brought in two photography lights along with our own torches and lamps so we could turn off the room lights and light the band in the way that we wanted.
We filmed both full band shots and close ups of each member so that we could montage these together. We filmed 'movement' shots by putting the camera on a trolly and moving it round whilst we filmed.
