Wednesday 9th

As we had Tuesday off college, we were a little behind on our schedule, we decided to go ahead with the filming at the garages opposite the Grafton centre, we all made our own way to the Grafton  as we were all coming from different areas, we didn't have any speakers to play the music track from so we went to poundland where we found speakers which you can plug into your mobile phone/ iPod, we tried them out and unfortunately they weren't that great and you couldn't evan hear the sound coming out from them, we thought we could use my phone but from where Leanne was standing at the top of the road of the garages, so we had to improvise and just had to use Leanne's iPod headphones, so the camera couldn't hear the music, we would just have to lip sync it up to Leanne's voice. After going to the Grafton toilets to do Leanne's hair and make-up we headed over to the garages, we had a walk around the garages as there is 3 floors to find the best/most suitable place to perform. We obviously was aware that cars could be using the garages at any times, but luckily it's not a very popular car park so we didn't get disturbed too much there was a couple of cars but they didn't need interfere with our filming. First we used the second floor as there a perfect little place where Leanne could stand and look over a half wall, as she needed the words for the song we had to find a way she could look at the words without the camera seeing the sheet. 



















We first thought that if Sophie stood outside on the ground and held the words up so Leanne could read them while we was recording, but Leanne couldn't read the words from that far away, so we had to think of something else. we come up with the idea that Leanne could have a note book in front of her too make it look like she was writing in it or something and then she could have the words in the note book, we tried it out and checked you wouldn't be able to see it on camera. We recorded it through the whole song three times too make sure we got the shot we wanted. We then moved onto our next location in the garages which was a sloped road that goes around a corner, on all the walls there is graffiti which gave it a rough look which is what we was going for. 




















We set up the camera for a long shot at the bottom of the slopped road and figured out where Leanne would stop in front of the camera. Leanne would start at the top around the corner out of sight, then she would slowly walk around the corner singing and carry on walking un till she got to a certain spot which we had marked out and then she would stand there and finish the rest of the song. After these shot we decided we would do a couple more before we froze to death, The next shot we planned to do is a tracking shot of Leanne walking beside the graffitied walls, we had a few complications, Sophie was walking along side of Leanne with the camera sometimes Sophie would end up walking in front of Leanne as she was walking to fast or the other way round, finally we got the right pace and that was a wrap for the day.
