Filming Day 3



This day was dedicated to filming the 'filler shots' we needed to help break up our music video and take stills for our digipak and poster design. From previous planning we decided that shots of a horse galloping through a filed would look great and would fit into our concept style that had been implemented in the rest of the video. Obviously when working with any animal additional safety precautions had to be taken. The sheer size of the horse alone was a danger in itself meaning we needed someone who knew something about the animals and someone
who the horse was comfortable to work with. Therefore we had Maizy in our music video representing the female we wanted but also because it was safe as she has experience with how control horses and we could not find anyone else that did.



Filming the horse took time and patience but we began be following a similar filming pattern to the previous two days. Therefore we set up a range of shots where the horse would by led in a continuous 'S' letter shape in front of the camera, this would create angle range and different perspectives on the horse. We continued this, walking the horse from a distance up close to the camera, and filmed each sequence so it was accompanied by a different back ground view. This gave us range when it came to editing.
