Actors and crew - Me, Charlotte, Sophie, Laura, Emily & Joe
The aim of today's filming session was to re-film some flashbacks of Emily & Joe for the anti-climax section of the song and get some shots of each of us girls and me lip-syncing.
This was the shot list:
- 4 shots of Emily and Joe sitting at the dining table drinking wine
- Shot of wine glass smashing on floor
- Shot of me lip-syncing wearing white top
- Shot of Charlotte lip-syncing wearing a white top
- Extreme close-up of Laura lip-syncing her line
- 4 shots of each girl against a brick wall
We did manage to film all of the above in a short amount of time! First of all we shot Emily & Joe's dining room shots, we had a bit of trouble getting the camera in position so that both Emily & Joe could be seen when sitting at either ends of the table but we managed to do it. Once we had these shots, Joe & Emily left so we could film our shots.
My lip-syncing shots were filmed next so I stood against a beam and we used a close-up for my lip-syncing, the line is only short so it was done quickly.

Next we filmed each girl individually looking at the camera with they're backs to the wall. These shots are nice as they are framed well and the brick background was simple and doesn't take the attention away from the girls. The white t-shirts we are wearing also look good as it makes each girl look innocent.
Last of all we filmed the glass smashing on the kitchen floor. We placed the camera on the floor facing a little upwards will the floor still visible. Laura stood over the camera and we made sure where she was going to drop it was in the right place. We only had 2 glasses so really we needed to get it right first time and the shot came out perfect and smashed really well!
Luckily we faced no problems with filming today and got all the shots we wanted. The only minor problem was that the lighting in the dining room was very bright as there are lots of windows which made our actors look dark. We overcame this by pulling the curtains across and turning on all the lights and lamps possible!
