On this day we filmed the
interrogation/base footage of the music
video with Danny Billz in our ‘black box’
setting. Personally, for our first time filming I
feel this went very well as we took our time
when filming/setting up, as well as taking
various different shots so we have more to
mix with when editing. A negative that
came from this, which could also be seen
a lesson taught is the framing of the shots.
For example particular shots looked to be
wonky, but through no fault of our own, as
we were unaware that the backdrop had
1/3 wonky lines going through it.

This day was not necessarily a
filming day, but it was a day in
which my partner and I took the
opportunity to have a Danny Billz
photo shoot. We took various
photos around the locations in
which we will be filming in, using
the photos for our website and
digipak. I feel this went very well
and looked professional, as we
experimented with loads of
different angles and positioning's
of our artist.

On this day we filmed every scene that involved Young Danny Billz
(YDB), this includes the scenes of him riding round the estates on his
bike, meeting up with friends an his involvement with drug related
activities. I feel this went very well, simply down to the fact that the
shoot was very organised, from gathering all necessary people and
props to carrying around our shot list, to ensure we were staying on
task. From filming a variety of shots in different but suitable locations,
I am confident that when it comes to editing my partner and I can
play with the speed and cuts of shots in order to make our music
video flow and more enjoyable.

On this day we went down to Shoreditch Police Station to shoot the
final scene, where you see YDB and DB cross paths. My partner and I
have come up with the idea that we can dissolve the two clips, for
example when YDB is walking down the police ramp, we can
dissolve it to Danny Billz walking. This is just to inform our audience
the end of the narrative, and for those who were unaware that YDB
is a representation of Danny Billz when he was younger.
