Ensuring to sync music with the visuals in post-production, we are advised to play the music on location which makes our job easier.
To gain sufficient coverage, he filmed a member of the band performing the entire song, whilst moving around to capture different angles to make it appear he had more set-ups than he actually did. I think this is an efficient way to film, as he doesn't need to use a lot of time setting up a shot, also allows him to capture spontaneous artistic glimpses which may not have been recorded had he stuck rigidly to his storyboard set-ups and reduces the length of shooting time without jeopardising the music video in the editing process due to a lack of coverage. We will be sure to incorporate this idea into our music video.
Ryan Connolly also strategically set up light reflectors as there wasn't enough light and the shadows of the extras in the side story would have had great detrimental impact on the video. Placing light reflectors carefully will be of great importance to our video, because we are using natural light for the most part and as it is winter it is quite dark and foggy, so we need something to combat both the shadows of the actors and natural elements that may hinder our music video. We may also use string lights and set a little gazebo to both create ambience and assist us technically with the lighting in not so blatant way.
