Piano Scene Filming

For this scene we filmed in a friends house who has a grand piano, this was a great location and the piano was beautiful and fit in perfectly with our scene. When we arrived it took about 30 minutes to apply Katie's dark eye make up and paint her nails red, we then dressed her in the black dress and she was ready for filming. We were losing light and didn't want to put a light on in the room as it wouldn't give us the effect we wanted so we used the spot light on the camera when filming so Katie's face and lip syncing was visible. We then set up the tripod and played the song so katie could lip sync to it and also it would then be easier when it came to editing to match the lip syncing with the track. Brett also did some free hand filming so he could get the close ups of katie singing.
