Today in our two hour lesson we began filming for our preliminary task, which we are reenacting Busted's top hit, What I Go To School For. We filmed used a small camcorder, on top of a tripod, the tripod was set about the same height as the desk to get eye contact with the viewer. We shot the video in a classroom environment, which replicates the location of the original video, which is something we had to get right. After we had all had a go of the lip syncing and acting for the music video, it was time to import the footage into iMovie on the macs. Then we began the editing process, which is something we are going to continue over the past couple of lessons. Editing is something which is extremely tricky and as we found today, it was harder than we had anticipated, as getting the lip syncing on time is something which is really important but really hard to get the hang off. But it was great to finally be behind the camera and gain some experience. As that is what the preliminary task is all about, preparing you for the actual task.
