Today i filmed the final shots for the Music Video, due to the events involving Thomas and Georgia i
had to change Georgia's character throughout the second verse and onward. I decided to use Maisie Goodman as a new love interest for Thomas's Character. At 2pm Maisie and I left Landau Forte Sixth Form to head into the town centre to meet Thomas to get ready for filming. We went straight to the first location which was down a footpath next to a bowling alley in the Town Centre. Thomas is walking down a footpath when he comes across a girl who walks past him, Thomas then turns around to get a seconds glance at the female character, he then walk off whilst thinking what life could be like if he was with that girl in a relationship.
After filming at the first location we then moved a few yards down the street to a floral area of the
park which connotes a perfect scene for a romantic date. The Characters are seen walking down the floral path whilst talking to each other. The costume changes in this scene as before we saw the characters wearing jackets in a glum scene, now the characters are wearing very formal attire. Thomas is wearing the same suit as we saw in the first verse/chorus of the Music Video to show the audience that he is still dreaming as costume still hasn't changed. As Maisie is the new female love interest she is wearing similar attire compared to georgia at the start of the video as i wanted each girl to be similar but different in their own way as the male character is thinking about what his dream girl could look like.
In this scene we see Maisie and tom walk down the path slowly then he stops and looks into her
eyes, he reaches out for her hand and continues to look at her as he is showing her how she is safe in his arms and how he wouldn't let anything happen to the girl. Shots used in this scene are very similar compared to the dream sequence seen at the first chorus of the song as again Thomas the male character walks up to the girl, looks into her eyes, takes her hand and walks off with her whilst holding hands with her. I did this again in this scene to show how even though each girl is different he still wants the same thing from a girl in a relationship.
Thomas and Maisie then walk off leading back into the performance aspect of the Music Video. The next scene was shot at a Band Stand in the town centre. The two characters walk to the top of the hill where the Band Stand is placed, he then stops and holds his hand out again to signify him asking the girl to be his girlfriend but as she takes his hand, her hand starts to fade away. This signifies the struggle the male character has of trying to find the girl of his dreams and how difficult his life has been trying to find 'The Perfect Girl'. After Maisie fades away, Thomas then runs after to emphasise the fact that even if she disappears then he will still be there trying to support her and look after her.
Thomas then finds Maisie standing in the middle of a Bridge on top of a river stream, Thomas runs up to the girl but the closer he got the faster she disappears to connote the struggle of trying to find the perfect girl of the characters dreams. Thomas then finds himself standing in the middle of the bridge. After looking around he finally sees Maisie standing by the wall of the bridge, Thomas then runs up to her but trips and falls over the side of the bridge which takes us back to the first scene where Thomas wakes up from his dream. In this scene it is different compared to the other scenes used in the Music Video. In the
scenes used leading up to the ending scene in the Music Video we can see that the scenarios used are represented as a perfect dream/perfect date. However as reality takes over in his dream the continuity changes from being from a perfect dream to a dangerous nightmare which is represented with the use of the road work equipment used on the walls of the bridge.
As filming has been completed the next step would be to finish editing and to render a final cut for the official upload of the Music Video. once that has completed i will need to start working on completing the Print Products and Evaluation.
