Test shoot

My group and i organised through Whatsapp to meet up with our cast and we booked the Armadillo practice room to rehearse the song with the whole cast. We asked them to wear appropriate clothing to our aesthetic for the campaign and to bring along their instruments. I organised getting a spare guitar for Connie our guitarist before we began filming. 

We played the song through my phone while Bashy filmed the performance (On his iPhone x) and we changed the positioning of the cast for different shots in order to replicate how we plan on in our final shoot. 

I was in charge for editing this practice test shoot, I downloaded the videos and imported onto iMovie on my phone. I cut and arranged the videos in the right order so that they flow correctly and finally added music over the top. 

I think this test shoot was a successful way of grasping and idea of how our music video will look in terms of band positioning and camera angles, shots and durations. it also gave our cast a chance to learn the song and gain chemistry as they performed as a band, this also helped us see how they all work and look altogether.
