Filming Blog for Music Video

Our group was supposed to film over the weekend, but we didn't. Everyone was busy throughout the day and if someone had time, there was a problem with transport. I think that we are going to film over Thanksgiving break. It would be better if we do it over the weekend because Thanksgiving would be over and I don't want to bother the other group members when they are with their family. Even though we did not film, when we start we know what to do. When we did our commercial we were a mess in the beginning. We did not know how to start and we were nervous so we kept laughing and had to keep retaking the first scene. For the music video, we know how we want the story to go and how we are going to portray it. Since the tittle of the song is "Girls Want To Have Fun" we are going to exactly what it says. The video will show a group of friends that are having fun. We also wanted to have a sleepover theme. I don't know if they can spend the night but we can just filming until the sun goes down, showing that time is passing. The video will start at my house then will show us going to different places. The places that we will go is the park, mall, and places to get food. Our video will also have some clips of us walking down the street or just being outside. The goal of the video is the exact definition of a group of teenagers hanging out on a Friday night. At some point, we will have pictures in the video so it is not the same all the time. I think it would be cool if we didn't have just one person behind the camera. Having different perspectives of the same thing would be better then just having it be basic. We will invite our friends and film. It will turn out better because we aren't really acting. For the commercial, the actors had to do a certain emotion and do it more than once. The music video will be us being ourselves. We necessarily don't need to do retakes of the same thing because everyone will be recording different things. At the end of the filming, we will pick the best footage.
