Filming!

We did our filming on Sunday (22nd September) and we were out from 10 till 7, so it was a long day, but it wasn't too stressful as the band members helped carry props, and we had an extra friend who came to help us. 

The green trees are the woods where we filmed the video. We had to carry our props and equipment to the different parts within the woods, but luckily we got all the shots from the storyboard done in one day, as well as some extra ones in case we didn't like the way some of the planned ones turned out.
Because we were smashing things and we were in a tricky location (and Alex had some pretty high shoes on!), we had to be very careful so that none of us got hurt. We made sure that when people were smashing things they stood far enough away, and when we had finished the shot, Sam (the guy who acted as the lead singer) cleared all the broken pieces away. And with regards to the tricky location and Alex's shoes, we all took it slow when climbing up the woods and over obstacles like rocks and trees, and Alex took an extra pair of shoes that were flat so when she wasn't being filmed she would be able to be safe. 

Overall I am really pleased with how the filming went, and we were so lucky to have great weather. The sun came through the trees and made the shots look very bright and wonderland-looking, which was great because we didn't plan that and it means we won't have to add too many effects in the editing process. Now I can't wait to get it all edited so we can see the finished product.
