This shoot took place in Bedgebury park, a large park with various scenery that would prove effective for our music video. The combination of woodland, open areas, slopes and open areas along with the long distance visibility meant capturing stills in Bedgebury to be a vital opportunity.
What was your role during the shoot?
My role during this shoot was, again, to act, and also to film. For the majority of the shoot I was being filmed as the character of the brother in the music video. However for the scenes I wasn't being filmed I helped operate the camera and also shot some sections of the video. I also posed for a variety of stills for the digipak and advert, however we decided not to use the majority of them, simply because they weren't as visually effective as others already on the digipak. I also took up the task of taking pictures of Cory and Dylan for the digipak, some included in the final advert and digipak. Lastly, I was also provided with the jobof transportation. This included driving group members up to Bedgebury, as well as camera equipment, such as the tripod and track.
Which shots were less successful or problematic? Why was this?
One shot that we struggled with in particular, was the shot of the two children, Cory and Dylan, standing on a tree stump. This proved difficult simply because the weather restricted any visually effective images being taken. After waiting a few hours and returning to the location we managed to take an effective image, that was enhanced even further in after effects by increasing the saturation. This image later comprised an aspect of our digipak design.
