This shall be our last update before christmas, look forward to our updates continuing in the new year!

Summary of Week 8/12

This Week has been so hectic!

We'll be talking about it all in Podcast 11, but long story short, we had some successes and some failures!

Our first session, we filmed at Mrs Pianforini's store. This worked well and we think that the shots are incredibly good, good enough to be involved in the final cut!

However, Charlie unfortunately could not be in Friday, when we were filming her sections of the home scenes, this has caused us to hit a huge block, and we are desperately reorganizing these shoots to compensate for this problem.

Our filming, yesterday, went well, and we are particularly happy with the shots, especially with my Cameo!

Hopefully we can edit these in tomorrow and it will become the product we want.

Performance Idea #1 (Update)

Having talked to the year 10s, we have decided to swap the idea, to make it feel more Gaga.

Now, we intend on having 3 sections of gaga

1. The Leader Gaga (LG), this will be the gaga sat in a chair, somewhat like the pimp in the original video. Where the original presented a make ruled world, we intend to subvert this message and present gaga as being the one in control of her actions. LG will sit on her throne, over looking the other gagas. In order to make it easier to film, we shall be using 3 different shots for this, a CU, a MLS HA and a MLS MA. This will mean that we can have 2 tripods set up to film her and her minion people, as well as having a CU to cut to if we want


2. The Minion Gaga (MG), this will be a group of 5 gagas sat around LGs throne. Some shots will be done as LG then MGs straight after in order to keep the angles the same. However, others will be CUs of the MGs


3. The 3rd group are the Newspaper Dancing Gagas (DG), there will be around 5 of them, but with scope to include more if needed, these will be singing and dancing to LG.

The costume the DGs will wear can be seen in the images in this powerpoint:

With the wings being worn either by LG or by DG


Upon considering this idea over night, I think having the wings worn by LG would be best, with the large dress worn by either the MGs (most likely) or DGs. The other would 

Moor's Filming

Today we planned to film on the moors, but the weather is horrible!

This means we will either have to rethink the Moors idea or reschedule the shoot.

We have also heard that Charlie is not in today, we're not sure why, but hopefully she will be able to make it to Amber's house in order to film her fighting with Brodie!

Filming at Mrs Pianforini's

We're very happy with the session we just completed, the shots look good and we made sure to get a superflous amount with multiple angles, to ensure we have what we need in order to edit together a good looking scene.

One thing we did note however, was that Gaga may have the wrong hairstyle when leaving.

Charlie has black hair and when leaving, Gaga has blonde! We're hoping people might think she will go to a salon, as she appears later with the black hair, but this may be relying too much on the audience reading.

Performance Idea #1

We want to have a performance done in a completely white room, somewhat similar to the main video.

The current plan is to use dresses from the Creative Arts Evening that the year 10s made, perhaps dressing the year 10s up in the dresses, and then filming everyone on a green screen in order to pose them and synchronise the dancing.

The White Room

The dresses can be seen in this section of the Creative Arts Evening video:
