We have decided to use Twitter and Facebook for our Band, for our Twitter acounts we are going to have one each and then one for the band, the band members will be both personal and professional, I think it was a good idea for us to do this as this is what quite a few professional bands do, a prime example of this is Paramore, who have a band twitter account and then individual twitter accounts Such as Hayley Williams' yelyahwilliams twitter
These are pictures that I took on my camera. They are either posters that are either mine or my brother Alex's. although there are about 6/7 (maybe more posters) the majority of them are old green day calendars that we would be able to cut the pictures of and use them.
The reason I thought of using these types of pictures was because where we was thinking of filming (my garage, photo's will be uploaded soon) has a white breeze block wall, which I'm not sure would fit our filming requirements, so if we cover these with appropriate posters then it will help.
These pictures are of Broughton Astley/Sutton in the Elms BT phone exchange, I Like this location becuase of the building. We would have as the background setting, I believe that this location looks more industrial and grungy which is closer to the type of scenery/location that we require for our music video. Although I liked our draft location, I believe that it didn't quite fit our requirements, for our music performance. The benches and the ornate stone wall doesn't fit our genre of music, Although I did like it, especially how the guitarists and singer had the chance to be on elevated and the drummer and drumkit was based on the floor, this allowed us to switch positioning between the regualar places of the lead singer/guitarists adn the durmmer, but I think that it would have been good if we could use something else instead of the benches as they weren't appropriate.
Although I do like the suggested location I can't be positive that we will be allowed to use it, I have to ask my Dad, but haven't had chance to yet, last night I was filming until quite late and on Monday night, it never crossed my mind, as I didn't think to ask. I think we may be allowed, but if we are there may be BT van parked in the Exchange's car park.
Tonight, we filmed our story scenes of our draft, we are missing about two or three shots as it got too dark for us to film any more, but we are very happy with the shots that we got, tonight.
We now have to edit our filming and put it together as a draft film by Friday, which I fully believe can be done. As we are using our own software we will have access to it at home as well as school, which should allow us more time to complete the editing.
These are pictures that I took on my phone, whilst filming the band performance sections of our music video.
Here are some pictures of us filming, there are more to come but I currently can't get them off my pc, should be up by tomorrow.
I haven't got any pictures of myself (on my phone) filming, they where taken using either damons or darrens camera. I'll try to put these up as soon as possible
We are going to attempt to film our story scenes tomorrow, Me, Damon and Darren all have study periods last lesson tomorrow, so we are going to go home during dinner and film for the rest of the day, as long as everything goes OK... I hope it works this time as it's about our 5th attempt for our filming, and 2nd for our story scenes...
We are having problems filming again... we are struggling to film, due to dates that we and our actors/actresses are both free. we are also considering filming our band performance at a different location as the current may not be suitable to our type of music video.
