Filming

Yesterday we filmed our 'Her Name Is Alice' video. Overall it was very successful - we got every shot done in one day, starting from about 10am and finishing about 7pm. The weather was perfect and sunny, which allowed the lighting quality to be lovely, and we had all the props we needed. Our friend Jo White came along to help us with the props and setting up of the scenes, which involved carrying up chairs, tables and instruments into the woods behind my house and the arrangement of our smaller props like teapots and cups. We took a lot of shots from different angles and filmed shots in different ways just in case we didn't like what we originally planned, which was done mostly by Liberty on her camera which has amazing quality. In terms of our risk assessment, we didn't encounter any of the risks other than me tripping up a few times due to a combination of my high shoes and the rough woodland floor, but I didn't fully fall over so there was no harm done; Samuel Snowdon who acted as lead singer also took on the role of 'health and safety' manager in order to make sure the location was safe for us to use, which included cleaning up glass and pottery after we smashed it. Today we began editing and we are really pleased with how things have turned out on the video clips, so we just hope we are also pleased with the finished product.
