Blog 17 - Rejected Footage

The reason we didn't use this shot in our video was because we felt the actress was too close to the camera so you couldn't really get the full effect of what we wanted, you couldn't see her body language or anything which is what we wanted.





The reason that we decided not to use this shot was because the lighting in the room was way too bright, there was no way you could get the effect of a house party or get into the song from this shot as it was too bright and showed too much of the room, where we wanted to see just the actress.




We didn't use this shot as it was unnecessary and if we did use it the lighting was too bright, however we did use the footage that came after this of her walking down the stairs, this was just the beginning 'sequence'.





The reason for not using this shot is clear, we obviously wanted to get the impression of the blurry-ness from drug taking etc, but this shot happened to be too blurry and too bright.






As you can see from our final video, we showed the use of layering, we originally wanted 3 of the same person in each shot, but after lots of work trying to achieve this we were really disappointed with the result, this was because the particular position that she was in meant that the the person in the middle would have been cut out and the effect was ruined as she moved lots so her arm was lost in particular shots.





We did not use this shot for the same reason as above, we felt it was a lot more effective with just the 2 characters as oppose to the 3 as it didn't really work how we wished.






We did not use this shot as, not only was the room too bright for the effect that we wanted but also because the actress turned to look at the camera.






This shot was not used again, because the lighting of the location was too bright to represent a house party.







This shot was not used for obvious reasons, the dog ran into the frame that we were trying to shoot, meaning we had to re shoot this particular shot.






We didn't use this shot because we didn't think it was very useful, you could only see the side of her, but in fact we would have wanted to see the front of her so we can see what she sees. Also the lighting again in the room is too bright.





This was the shot after she had walked down the stairs, the reason that we did not use this shot was not only was it too bright, but there were particular objects in the way, that would have been a distraction from the video itself.
