Today was the final day of shooting and we had to complete the fight scene, which is undertaken in London. Like the last days of filming we have used industry standard equipment which were a camera and a tripod. Originally we had wanted to film in Carnaby Street however, after review we decided this was not the best idea as it is too busy which would disrupt the filming process. Therefore, we changed the location to a place, which is up London but does not have as many people to interrupt the scene. We moved the location therefore to a side street in Holborn. This is the first major change of the day, which was impromptu and was altered on the day. When we began filming we stuck to the storyboard and included miming the chorus. However, originally we had decided to get the gorilla to pick at Megan’s hair when the lyric ‘there’s something going wrong around here…’ but today we decided to change it. Instead, Matt walks past the camera and as he passes his love interest asks a member of the public (Alex) to take a photo of her and the Gorilla together. This incident then leads on into the fight. We feel this was a better idea as it allowed it to flow and allowed for an exaggerated confrontation. Also, we have decided to not place in the miming during this section as we feel it allowed for a better participation in the fight. We then decided to pick up the miming again during one line of the fight. This could seem confused however we feel the mix between miming and acting allows for greater variety we feel. It also was done in order to make the editing process easier as it gave a benchmark to refer back to if we needed to place more footage in. We hope the footage we have obtained will be perfect for editing.From the line of 'is she really going out with him' to 'I get so mean around this scene' will have no miming in it. The miming commences in the final chorus and verse of the song.
