Studio Test Footage


We wanted to have shots with the studio lights in it (inspired by SBTRKT Pharaohs ft. Roses Gabor and Beyonce ft. Jay Z Crazy in Love) but because it was in front of the green screen the thin pole dissolved into the background and made the quality look unprofessional.

Test Footage 5


We actually used this footage in the music video but it was originally filmed to see what it would be like just using one dancer instead of a group. We decided we liked it and used snippets of it for Schoolin' Life.

Test Footage 4



The main focus in the clip is to see what not to use. We decided to film using extreme techniques of focus to see if it'd be too much, we decided it was and would use more suble skills in the actual music video.

Test Footage 3



Rachel took this footage to experiment with focus, zooming and movement of the camera. These three elements will add more excitement and movement to our music video.

Test Footage 2



Again this is me teaching the performers the routine to ensure they get it right and can make it look sharp and professional. This footage was taken using the bright white lights to see how they would look.

Test Footage 1



This is me teaching the performers the routine for the dance section. Rachel took this test footage to experiment with the focus on her camera and to seen how the performance looked with the lights on.
