FILMING FOR OUR PERFORMANCE SCENES

For the performance scenes we wanted to keep it quite simple yet effective and so we decided to use the music studio which has a black curtain and also three-point lighting. This is to promote the ‘artist’ so that he appears prominent within the shot and so it creates a star image. Using the three point lighting allowed us to achieve a ‘moody’ atmosphere and so this creates a relationship between the visuals and song and lyrics because the subject of the song is quite sad and so we thought that this would add to the atmosphere. Having the lights in shot, creates lens flares and so we thought that this would make the shots appear interesting as well as slightly more professional as it shows that we have thought about shot construction. The lens flares also move across the shot as the camera moves around the artist. Having Shqipdon sitting down, means that the lights will create a lens flare and also a halo effect, which is particularly effective and also creates a star image.
