Filming classroom scene

Today we filmed the classroom scene which is the beginning and end of the music video. I filmed the beginning scene where the girls will be sitting in the classroom getting bored and drifting off into their dreams whilst the teacher is talking and the last scene when the teacher shouts at them for not paying attention and they all get back into the real world which is expressed through them jumping back when the teacher shouts, this is when Ally walks into the room. Whilst I was Filming I made sure that I got close-ups of all the girls using the camera to pan across their faces showing their boredom and expressions as they go into their dream world.

This is me setting the camera so all four girls are in the frame.

This is Saira recording the teacher whilst he is teaching the students.

This is me and Saira recording the classroom scene. My camera is placed to record the four girls directly from in front and Saira is recording from an angle to get the students and the teacher in the shot. 

Classroom scene in progress

This is me and Ally filming. Ally helped us record as he did not need to be in the scene. To fill in for more students Zarah is sitting with the other pupils.

As the seen is in progress, on the left hand side shiggy has her hand up as she is going to answer a question to give the scene a sense of realism. This is done to show that other students are paying attention to what the teacher is teaching whilst the four main girls are bored and not concentrating.

These are the four girls sitting in their positions.
