For a while now Tad and I have been considerably weighed down with work and haven't actually found time to film the last lengths of our video. We agreed at first that the video shouldnt have a narrative as most MV do, unfortunately, try as we may our own storyboard kept on staying towards a narrative of some form yet we still wanted to keep the video as random as possible. So we decided that we'd have a bit of both, a fusion almost between spontaneity and narrative. So in the end we had a shot of where the main character in our MV gets sent out of his girlfriends house for being too "playful" and goes out in a mood and spots another attractive girl who he entices into his red van and Tad and I drive off with the pair in the back. (Very Provocative.)
We decided that due to the spontaneity of the band's overall and the genre of the music they make that the location of the "band scene" should be set in a entirely random place, like someones back garden on the decking, thus keeping up with the mise en scene of the music video.
We got quite a lot of filming done today and I can honestly say we are near completion of the video. In terms of shooting the band, we wanted to get as many different camera angles and zooms of the band to allow us to edit the overall amount of shots in to a quick changing transitional part of the band playing the song.
Because we wanted a variation in the "Lets Make Out" Montages we went on a totally spur of the moment idea and decided to film both Tad and I shouting LMO at the camera, but in each transition we were wearing a different item of clothing.
