Risk Assessment For New Locations

Due to the fact that I have decided to feature a new location in my re-filming I composed a new risk assessment for the dangers involved in the use of this location.

New Actress: Fact File

Name: Kiera King

Age: 17
Gender: Female

Music Video Role:
Kiera will be playing the role of my music artist Savannah. In this music video I would like to portray the emotions of a young girl who wants to leave her childhood and past self behind. She is angry about the way the media desensitises us to the horrors in the world by embedding serious news between Kardashian clickbait and wants to claim bak her body and personality for herself. Kiera will be depicting the symbolic dramatised cleansing in this video and will lip-sync throughout.

Interests:
Music, Live Music Events, funky socks, Iron Man, coming of age films, being trendy, glitter, candles, vinyl, Halloween, photography, editing images and having a sick Instagram feed.

Dislikes:
Gwyneth Paltrow, Tomatoes, summer, mean people, inequality, spiders, when things are more expensive than they need to be (aka everything in Urban Outfitters) and people who tell other people to go home.

Music Taste:
The 1975, Blossoms, The Vaccines, David Bowie, Peace, Queen, Catfish and The Bottlemen and The Arctic Monkeys.

Reasons for choosing this actress:
Kiera's style and is reflective of the indie/alternative music genre, she also enjoys listening to music from a similar genre to the genre that the song I am making my music video belongs to. Additionally she is reliable, enthusiastic about the role and experienced both behind and in front of the the camera so will know how to take direction well.

Filming: Issues and Future Plans

After filming the first day of my music video it became apparent to both my and I actress that we could not agree upon a further filming date where we when we were both free to shoot the rest of the music video. This was an issue as I planned to film and make a first draft of the video over christmas which was becoming increasingly unlikely so I made the decision to re-film the footage that I had compiled with a new actor who was more readily available to film.
I roughly edited what I had already filmed with my original actress to see if the footage ideas that I had were working in the way that I wanted them to and found that I did not like what I had filmed at all and felt that it didn't work with the atmosphere of the song in the way that I should.
This is the footage:

I feel as though there are too many cuts and the whole video so far feels too jumpy and this does not fit with the smoothness of the song. I also think that the footage that I had for the opening voice over audio was far too serene and felt disjointed with the atmosphere of this section and that the footage that follows this is also disconnected front the song. I would like to change this section completely and create a more intense atmosphere for the voice-over to contrast with other more calm footage that will feature later.

Equipment

I used a Legeria HF R706 canon video camera to film my music video. I decided this would be a good camera to use as it is compact, with "Good image quality, 50p MP4 mode and Creative effects".

I also borrowed a stage light from the school drama studio to professionally light the footage I filmed inside as I found upon inspecting my kitchen location that the area did not get much natural lighting and the shot would need to be more well lit.

I was loaned a tripod by a friend for this filming process so I could achieve steady footage.
