Today, I filmed in the green room at college to create a 'inside of a photobooth' effect. I was inspired by this clip I found off YouTube from the TV series 'Pretty Little Liars', which features a same sex relationship.
To film this, I used a Canon Legria HF R506 camera and a tripod, which was placed in front of a white background and I used specialist lighting to make it look professional. We also used some of the props in the green room to give off a fun and in love feel to it. There were some complications, such as I began filming without it actually recording anything because the SD card slot wasn't closed. My cast also felt a bit awkward doing this however I played some music to help them feel a bit more comfortable and at ease.
Here is what we filmed and hopefully after editing it, it will look somewhat similar to the video above. I purposely filmed for 2 minutes even though the shot in the video will be around 13 seconds long because I knew that my cast might have been nervous and might need to adjust to being in front of the camera. Overall, I am happy with what I have shot and will edit the colouring of the video, flash effect and others on Final Cut Pro. I am glad I have started my filming on a good note, as it will make me more positive for the rest of the filming tomorrow as I was nervous that it wouldn't go as imagined in my head.
