Filming Blog Park (Music Video)

First, I started filming at the beach during Thanksgiving Break, however at the beginning of when the break started. There, at Hollywood Beach, we filmed the necessary scenes; it took relatively quite a long time to set up and to walk around to the places that we needed to film at. While filming at the beach, I set the camera's settings to capture my film ideally for that location. I took into account the amount of lighting, the reflection from the water, and background noises that could disturb my video; so there were times throughout the day we had to wait for the perfect scenery. Also, we had to take into account the amount of space around us; this is due to wanting a relatively vast space around the filming area to distinguish ourselves from other people at the beach and to maintain people out of the film that didn't seek to be in the video. Although,  it was faster set up than normal as other actors were helping me to set up the tripod and camera in the wanted positions. We first showed up to the beach around noon and the filming took us all the way until the afternoon but, at least we got it done.
Then, I had to refilm the Young Circle Park scenes; sadly, the film was corrupt so it could not be dumped onto the computer. Although it was a loss, it showed me what angles I could have done better and what type of transitions or filters to use and etc. The park scenes were easily done since we already created them before and all the actors already knew what to do and what to expect in the film. Keeping that in mind, the only time-wasting part was walking around the park to the ideal locations and waiting for better conditions. Other than that, it went better than expected as we originally showed up during the afternoon and left before evening. Now, the scenes from the park look more polished and realistic since the actors got used to their parts. Although, one actor could not make it due to personal issues. Because of that inconvenience, the actor shows up in other parts but not the whole video; however, it does not cause dramatic confusion as the message is still properly delivered.
Lastly, we had to reschedule the home scenes; also known as the scenes in the bedroom and bathroom. These scenes were supposed to be shot at the end of break; however, I got very ill and the scene retakes for the park practically overlapped with the filming schedule for the house. So, we decided to film later on in the week, even if the school is in session we were able to get enough time for a few scenes. The schedule is mainly to show up to school in the costumes that are supposed to be in my film; of course, as they are still school dress code appropriate. Extras such as props would be left in the house and set up when we get home. Filming should not take more than an hour or so and should leave in enough time for homework and personal life. Although, since there is a large number of house scenes I do expect a bit of time to be occupied with setup and positioning.
