This week me and Shriya filmed the majority of our music video in the park, bar and house locations. This meant that we had to get in contact with each other regularly in order to arrange places to meet and when to film.
One of the main challenges we faced this week was that we didn't get a reply from the Costa in Romford meaning we had to make arrangements to film at another location, we chose a small bar in Gants Hill called Sidney's. Also we had some difficulty in finding time when both us and our cast were all free. This required a lot of rushed planning in order to ensure that we had all cast and crew available.
According to Production Schedule we have caught up and are now on target to finish on time, this is predicated on there being no more large disruptions during the editing stage. If all goes to plan we should have completed some of the editing this week.

Production Log: Week 4
This week me and Shriya finished off the planning stage and started filming our music video, the first scene that we shot was of the artist in a music studio singing into a mic. We shot this from a variety of different angles so that we would be able to cut sections of this film into the music video where ever we think necessary.
One of the only problems whilst filming this was that on the first day of filming there was a power cut and so we had to abandon filming resulting in a days filming lost. We overcame this challenge by arranging to film in the studio the next day after the power difficulties had been fixed. Another challenge we faced was trying to get the angles that we wanted for the shots, this required both me and Shriya to think of a viable solution. We were able to work though this problem and get all of the different angles and heights that we wanted.
According to our Production Schedule we were slightly behind but by using the days that we had allocated for such delays we were able to catch up and are now in line with the targets that we set ourselves in the schedule.
For next week we are going to continue filming the different locations and we have also allowed some days for extra filming if we run into any more difficulties during filming on those days.

Production Log: Week 3
During this week me and my partner were able to finish sending off requests for permission to film in our desired locations and finished off some amendments to our shooting script.
This week me and Shriya finished all of the pre-production planning by dividing the work up between the two of us and then coming together at the end and putting our individual work together such as the Call Sheets, Shooting Script and Production Schedule.
One of the difficulties that we faced was finding time when we were both free so that we could catch up with the work that the other had done. This meant that there were some times when one of us would have to wait for the other to finish a piece of work or would have to spend time putting our collaborative work together into one final piece.
We overcame these problems by setting times where we would meet up and plan the work that each of us would need to finish and by using our time in lessons to work together on some of the larger pieces of work.
Next week we hope to begin filming now that the planning stage of our work is complete.
