On the 12th of May I was able to round uip 5 or 6 people to act as background acharacters and film the restuarant scenes with Sarah serving. Unforunately we didn't get round to doing the dancing sequence as planned but the music video looks fine without it.
As I have been editing as i've been filming all I had to do was fill in the gaps in the timeline with the new parts, replacing some of the original lip syncing sections so I can include all of the footage needed from the latest filming.
I have since completed the music video editing and have shown Chris who understood the storyline of the video and said everything was good and to move onto the evaluation. The only thing left to do is to blur out any swearing on the track and any middle fingers in the music video (Dan and Stuart mostly)

Filming
Most of the filming for my music video has gone pretty much according to plan and all of the footage i have captured so far is looking almost exactly how I planned it in the storyboards.
I was unable to get ahold of people from Haywards Heath in time for the shoot, so fell back on using College people.
I was able to film the lip syncing sections of the music video with Lewis and Sarah over the half term break, which involved Lewis and Sarah walking around town singing ths ong as if Lewis had jsut met Sarah as she walks out from her shift and the cafe. We filmed this section 3 times once in a 2 shot, and twice for clsoe ups. Luckily no one in gthe background tried to be smart and the takes went smoothly; minus walking into several signs as I walked backwards with the camera.
Last week, 2nd May Lewis and Sarah came round to film the apartment sections. This involved Sarah getting home from work and finding 'Mine' stickers over everything in the flat to imply that nothing she owns in actually hers as we briefly see her flat mate (played by me) stick these up all over the place. these stickers are more metephorical in her mind, but can also be taken as physical objects.
Tomorrow (May 12th) I plan to complete my filming schedule by going into the college restuarant in the afternoon with a collection of people to act as customers whilst Sarah goes about her day as a Waitress , whilst Lewis' character looks on as she gets abuse hurled at her by the customers.
I have already put together the footage from the first 2 days of filming, so once I've filmed on Wednesday I'll be able to complete editing over the weekend and finish the music video and move onto the evaluation.
