First Filming Session - Poppy

We planned are first filming session after school on a Wednesday. he plan was for to be with us so we could film parts of the artists section, which was of her miming to the song lyrics from the song, 'Battlefield'.

The media staff room we used to film the footage as we could not access the gallery in photography of drama hall because of other exams taking place. To control this situation affectively we used a white screen put in the staff room we could still film the footage needed. In addition we had a DSLR camera, 2 camera lenses, tripod and a studio lamp. Poppy was dressed in all white for her costume for the artist to connote white to innocence an purity of her being a young artist, also the clothing was tight fitting to create a sex appeal,'voyeurism'.

Laxmi was off sick when we filmed this first footage but she knew what we was planning to do and given ideas prior to this. Me and Hayley were directing Poppy on how to perform and telling her lyrics to sing at the right point. Aaron was controlling the camera and what different shots to take. The scenery for the shot was not ideal for what we had planned and we all knew the footage would not be included in our final video, it was just purely test shots so we could develop and learn from this experience.
