POV Filming
During filming we discovered that we were lacking in shots of the couple together. We felt in order to build the narrative of the song this was vital as it would give a personel feel to the video. Our inspiration came in the form of Calvin Harris' video 'I need your love'. In this video there is a POV shot used which we felt would be suitable for our video.
We filmed the shot while in a coffee shop, we felt that we could film the couple drinking their coffee while one of them is holding the camera. After filming the shot and used it during editing we realised that it worked really well with the lyrics and that we should use them more frequently in the video. So we filmed a number of different POV shots in a number of different locations.
The POV shot is a brilliant way for us to bring the video to life as it really builds the characters in the video. Building the characters also allows us to build up the narrative and so we end up making a video that can relate to our audience.
