Filming of our music video

On sunday 8th of november Jordan and I filmed our music video, we had previously checked the weather forecast and it was set to be sunny. However when we arrived and began to film, we found that the tracking on a film dolly was wobbly and shaky because of the uneven pavement. This meant that we couldn't track our artist because the film would be too distorted.
We decided to drive down to the local co-op to pick up some cardboard boxes to lay on the pavement and then use the film dolly over, this proved successful as the footage was then stable and still.
The general filming of the video went okay, taking just over 3 hours however we were taken to a holt because the camera ran out of battery and we had to stop filming with just two scenes to go.

We tried to film during the week however the unpredictable weather kept holding us back, so finally on the following sunday when the weather was sunny again we managed to film our last scenes. Once again we had to collect some cardboard from the local supermarket but managed to film in just over an hour having prepared and learnt from our mistakes the previous week.
