Aims For Todays Shoot

Today will hopefully be our last day filming as we hope to film the remaining footage we need for our music video. We are going to predominantly film the singing shots needed for the chorus as well as a few long shots and cutaways.
Here is an example of one type of cutaway/transition that we are hoping to film today and feature in our music video...

  This type of fast, whip motion is something we are hoping to recreate through both editing and filming techniques. In this music video, these transitions are used to cut between the artists singing in different locations. They create a smooth and interesting transition which isn't too difficult for the audience to visually comprehend. The full sequence of shots we are trying to recreate can be seen below…


We will set the camera up and have Ivory stand in one position, sing a line, quickly move the camera to the left and then re do until she has appeared in four different locations in a circle. This should hopefully, with a little editing, create the above effect which we will feature in our chorus.
