For our fourth day of filming, we needed to film the ending which was a continuation of Cameron's scene in the pub. The lighting was very good during this session because it gave a warmth to the scene as it's meant to be a happy ending for the girl. The process was relatively easy because we followed the same formula from the other date scenes but this time, instead of the guy suddenly appearing next to her, the guy walks up to her without a mask to portray that he's 'the perfect guy'. We also used different camera angles and shots such as over the shoulder, graphic matching and close ups in this scene to show that this is different from the other dates that she has been in. It also agrees with Carol Vernallis' theory of diegesis in that there is repetition in the music video but also agrees with Steve Neale's theory that there needs to be originality as well as repetition. Therefore this music video complies with the genre theories. Problems that occurred during the filming process was the shadows therefore most of the crew had to stand far back to avoid shadows obstructing the frame. Also there was a short time in which the lighting was a yellowish colour therefore we had to slightly rush some parts and some of the lighting was different afterwards. Overall it was a productive day of filming and we managed to get all the shots we needed.
We decided to do all our print work for this day because it was the only time where all three actors were in the same place. It's also suitable because this place is where the music video starts and ends. So it makes sense that our CD front and back cover would be here.
For our CD front cover and magazine advert, we needed to have the three main characters on the front so we took several photos of the three of them together. The one below shows the girl in the middle (Sid) to show that she's essentially the protagonist, the perfect guy on the right (Cameron) and the guy who got stood up on the left (Kaden). They are all looking away from the camera because it's a convention and that is what artists do on front covers, rarely do you see the artist look directly at the camera. They typically look away to show that they are in deep thought. It's positioned in a way that the audience would focus immediately to the middle, to the left then to the right.
The photo below would work well as a front cover too because the bench is a motif throughout the music video so it makes sense to have our three main characters sitting on the bench where they've all sat on through the course of the music video.
