Lighting
We wanted the lighting in the music video to be darkly lit and
in black and white, for the normal black curtain we had very
low key lighting with only the places where the girls danced lit
up, however for the green screen in order to make it work well
we needed to have the green screen brightly lit up in order to
prevent shadows on the screen ruining the effect.
Set
The only set that we used for this production was the studio
set, this was very good for the green screen and was the
perfect place for the girls to dance because there was a lot of
room.
Sound
We didnt record any sounds for this project, as it was a music
video where we would have a song being played over the
footage, it was unnecessary to up to pick up any diegetic
sounds either as they served no purpose for the music video.
We had the main singer sing over the lyrics of the song that
was being played in the background.

Location Plans
For the shoot on the day we had the studio booked out a week
in advances and we had it for the entire day, which gave us 6
hours of time to shoot the music video, which was plenty of
time. It was the only location that we needed for the
production.
Lighting Plans
For lighting we had the studio lights that we intended to use
for the curtain shots, however for the green screen we needed
different lighting so there would be any shadows, we also
made sure that the people in front of the green screen were
not standing too close to the back as it would cause a shadow.
Risk Assessment
For risk assessment the biggest concern was the green screen,
we ensured the green screen was safe by taping it down
tightly to the floor and making sure it was stretched out as far
as possible.
Task 6-My Role In the Production
For this project my role was the director, I was responsible for
directing the rest of the crew about what they should do when
operating the camera, I was sceptical about using the green
screen as it was dangerous for the girls to dance around on it
and the green screen can sometimes look bad if not done
properly, I decided that we shoot both green screen and black
Task 7
Communication with production team
During the making of this music video we were also in the
process of making a game show, because of this we did not
have as much time to plan out the production of this music
video as we were focusing more on the game show, this is
partly due to the fact that we were working on the game show
before we found out about the music video, because of this
fact there was less communication on this project as you
would want.
Shot Calling
We did not use a editing desk for this music video, we instead
used normal cameras not hooked up to the TV studio and took
the footage off the cards on a computer, we then looked at the
footage to see what is the best shots to use for the music
video.
Talk-back
We didnt need to use talk back during the production,
whenever we stopped recording we would talk about the
scene and discuss what we should do with the cameras.
Cueing
Thanks to the music cueing was easy, if we directed the main
singer to do it the music would give her cue to do it, this
meant that the director didnt have to give any signal.
Video and Graphics Inserts
We did intend to use stock footage of past family events
involving the girls and their mother, however whenever they
gave us some footage there wasnt much to work with and it
didnt fit in well with the music video.
