Re-Filming Shots

Today we refilmed particular shots and also filmed some extra new shots. These shots for for the intro of the music video and the ending. For the intro the werewolf is in his room and is about the mark off the day on the calender which is the full moon.

For this we made the room dark by pulling down the blind and turning the lights off. This made the room completely dark and was too dark to do the shot. This is what the room looked like with the blinds pulling down and the lights on for the purpose of the picture, but without the lights on the room was too dark to film the intro sequence.




To make the room not too bright we used a little mood light and had Terry hold it in place so that we could get the correct and efficient lighting in every shot. This light worked out very well as it didn't make the shot too bright but not too dark. It was lit enough to see what's happening and still gave off the impression that it was filmed at night-time.  For every shot the light source would be moved so that the light wasn't too strong and gave away  the fact lighting was being used. We used this throughout the whole of the intro section until the werewolf went to bed. We tried to recreate the same angle from the closing shot of the intro and the opening shot of the song, even though these were done on two separate occasions.

For all of the filming done on this day we used a monopod except for the closing shot of the intro where we used a tripod because we wanted a completely stable shot.
