1-3 seconds. This was going to be a part of the 'flash back' idea we originally had, where the couple were entering the house happy and loved up. we were planning on putting this part in after the fight scene, as though the girl was remembering how they used to be together. We chose not to add this bit in in our final cut as we were worried the audience wouldnt understand it's purpose and a aberrant reading would occur.
4-12 seconds. We decided to change this clip as when the girl walks in, she looks over towards the left, as if shes looking at something. In our first notes and draft ideas we discussed having a photo off the couple on the window sill and then cut to the photo so the audience know what she is looking at. As we chose to take this bit out as we didn't feel it was necessary to the narrative, it meant we had to re-shoot this scene, where the girl walks in and isn't seen to be looking in any particular direction.
13-14 seconds. In this clip, Amy was standing to the left of the frame and the camera captured the edge of her foot in shot. We in fact still used this clip as part of our video, as no one spotted this until after the final cut had been produced but we were able to disguise it by using a transition between the shots.
15-30 seconds. We shot this scene numerous times before we got what we wanted. as you can see from the next clip (31-51 seconds) we changed around where the props were to try and get a more interesting scene. After putting the footage together we realised the take was far too long and we went back and shot it again using more cuts this time to chop the scene up, making it cut faster- like a stereotypical music video. This also made it more pleasing to the eye.
52-1.03 seconds. We all decided the zoom at the end of this clip didn't work and with it being a hand held camera made it look unprofessional as it was wobbly/shaking, which can work in some cases but at this point didn't serve any purpose to the narrative.
