Last lesson we finished the warm ups and we finished writing the script of our video, which meant we could use this lesson to film the video. We decided to split the video into two parts so it is easier for us to edit the video, and also so we don't rush when filming. The first part when we talk to the camera, and the second part when we do the actual warm ups.
Today, we decided to film the first part; talking to the camera. Before filming we had to choose a location and find somewhere to place the camera so both of us could be seen in the video. We chose to film in one of the practise rooms and place the camera on a high shelf so both of us were in the shot. It was quite straight forward when following the script as we had already given parts to one another. This meant we knew what we were saying and when to say it. We decided to split the script into a few sections to make it easier to remember certain lines and also so it was straight forward when it came to editing it.
The intro where we introduce the video and introduce ourselves was the first part we filmed as it was the easiest thing to memorize. Once we started the video we carried on with the rest of the script. We took turns when talking in the script so we could pick 2 lines and memorize them and then move on to the next two lines. This was useful for us as we didn't have to memorize the whole script. Also if we messed up we knew we could edit it afterwards, so we used the script as a base for what we were saying.
It took as a while to film the talking parts of the video as there was a lot that needed to be explained, and we wanted to make sure what we were saying was clear and understandable. We also messed up a few times because we forgot what we were saying, but that was ok as we could take it out when editing the video.
