Update

We've now got over 8 minutes of footage, which is brilliant as the song only last around 4 minutes. However, this doesn't mean we have finished our story, or got a wide enough range of shots for our performance. Therefore, we are hoping to film a bit more in the near future in order to give us as much material as possible to edit.

Progress check

After my little moan the other day, things are looking up. We have 3 (soon to be 4) minutes for our story. When edited, this should equal a 2 minute or so story we can weave into our performance.

Tommorow, we shall look at filming the performance side of our piece. Hopefully, film enough in various locations in order to get plenty of footage to edit down.

Also, to make a tidy storyboard, we shall take snapshots of the film. Its tidier and will look alot better :)

A progress check (that will hopefully be better!)

Ok, so things we've done:

• Began filming- several shots of the charcter in our storyline done, plenty of close ups filmed indoors.
• Storyboard taking shape- Few more shots discussesd and badly sketched. Storyboard for performance complete, to be uploaded shortly.

Problems we've encountered:

• Lack of equipment- Only the other day did we finally get hold of a camera and tripod for filming and, even then, the camera had little battery. Now charged. Problem solved.
• People skills- While others edit, we haven't even got our group together to film yet. Proper shouting required at those who have let the side down. Problem solved.
• Performance- Yet to be filmed, as lacking instruments. Ask music department to borrow tambourine and bring in my guitar. Problem solved.

Plan:

• Film story
• Film peformance
• Upload storyboards

The song lyrics!

Girl...
I’ve got the feeling that there’s some else,
I guess I’ll be here all by myself;
Just standing in the rain.
Girl...
I’ve got the feeling that there’s someone new,
I don’t know why nor I don’t know who;
But I know I’ll feel the pain.
And I try, try and I try to understand,
And I cry, cry and I cry cos I’m only a man,
And I try, try and I try;
But look at the state I’m in.....
Oh Girl...
I’ve got the feeling that there’s some else,
I guess I’ll be here all by myself;
Just standing in the rain.
And I try, try and I try to understand,
And I cry, cry and I cry cos I’m only a man,
And I try, try and I try;
But look at the state I’m in.....
Oh Girl...
I’ve got the feeling that there’s someone new,
I don’t know why nor I don’t know who;
But I know I’ll feel the pain.
Oh girl….. I’m standing in the rain.
Oh girl…. I’m standing in the rain.
Oh my girl…..
I’m standing in the rain.
