Filming Part 1

Earlier today we began work on the production of the music video. We have begun by filming the scenes with the army officer killing the refugee in the past, this was shot in our outside location. We shot most of this in some woods close to our other locations. Below are some shots of the costumes we used:



For the officer's gun we managed to find a realistic looking Airsoft rifle. The refugee played by myself we used an old looking coat and hat:



Below is a shot of me preparing to film one of the tracking shots in the forest. For this part of the narrative we shared the filming duties since I was an actor for some of this scene.



Additionally we have taken some still shots which we will be able to put on the secret documents needed in the present section of the narrative. These will allow us to create some interesting transitions between the past and present by for example zooming into a picture which will then come into motion.



We were also very lucky to have an Apache helicopter fly over us while we were filming. We managed to capture some footage of it in flight which we will be able to use for part of the video. The stills we have of this will also be useful for the top secret documents.
