Final Shoot & Last 2 and a bit Lessons

At college yesterday whilst Tom was left hard at work editing bits and bobs on the video, Matt, Frank & Jack went out on the final shoot! After feedback given, we came to realize that we had NO CUT AWAYS!!! :o So we went out and shot some. The shoot was successful and we gathered the recordings we desired. The Stairway outside college and the Bridge on Long Road proved to be very good shot locations.


After a hard lessons filming the 3 returned to Tom with some more footage and we uploaded onto the computer for editing.

This then set us on our way for the final 2 lessons and after college hours session to edit the footage and have it all done and dusted, ready for showing at the Arts Picture House next week! Yaaaaaaay!

sooooo today

so today bright and early at the butt crack of dawn frank tom and matt did some filming, however tom was asleep when frank and matt were setting up



never fear becuase super tom awoke


and we could start filming,

we took into account some of the comments that were made from the feeback sesh and turned it from a matt fest to a group of love



to do this we had

tom on the drums


frank on bass


and matt on the lead gutiar


this made our band look more like a group, it also takes some of the focus away from matt, we played around with the shots had a laugh and the three of us there were quite happy with what we got, we have done some interesting shots such as we made it look like tom was playing the drums and hit the stick on the camera giving the illusion the stick is coming down on the audience,YEA

hope it turns out well as alot of effort was put in during the moring not least to wake up tom!

much love

Very good!! like better than our rainbow gasm!!!! like better than life but we are upset as naked boy is not here anymore!!

One slight problem....

Upon viewing our rough cut many a time, we have realised the error of our ways.Our video is a 3:26 MATTFEST, and is utterly boring.

Have no fear, for we shall correct this, we will introduce the band into the video, as this could be make or break for our project.

Peace Out


Frank and Tom.

Group 30

Lip syncing was good but the music took a long time to kick in,
maybe use some different shots because they are quite limited,
the fish eye was used well.
where sure its got a lot of editing to do, but its looking good at the moment.

Comment from group 25 on rough cut

looking good but could do with some more movement from the character.

lip syncing is good and some nice camera angles, i especially liked the fish eye, make him look WELL 'ARD MATE.

luv g 25

Beggining Footage for Rough cut

We have began to start filming for our rough cut , with the use of locations such as , the dark room and staircase. We felt that these were effective in our test footage , as both the lighting and the un tidy affect they both have are appropriate for the song with the links with the film 'quadrophenia' .We have now filmed about 4 shot angles of the song in the dark room and today have begun to film real footage within the stair case.

Ideas for replacement cut aways

Instead of having the storyline, we have decided to replace it with other various cut aways. Some of the ideas we have had are:

- The artist playing instruments
- Shots with use of Special effects
-Abstract shots
- Moving shots with links to competitions ,linking with the theme of "gotta be someone"
-Abstract shots of urban areas.


These will be used to brake up the singing performances to make the video more visually stimulating.With relevance to the theme of bettering yourself which is carried with in the lyrics.

our story

we have changed our video, we no longer feel it suitable to have cut aways in the form of a story as we dont think we will be able to get it finished, we have decided to have some cut aways but not many. the rest of the video will be of a perfomance,
