For the second day of filming we were focused on getting shots before and after the transformation as such we shot both "unpopular" shots and "popular" shots. This was possible as we planned in advance to have me and Shelby bring two sets of clothes and some make up so that we would be able to change in the public toilets part way through the day.
The first part of the days shots consisted with me and Shelby as "unpopular" kids as we browsed through shops and purchased makeup and clothing items which we would later use in the "make over" segment of our music video. We decided to do the "unpopular" shots first as it was easier to change from "unpopular" to popular than it was to attempt the procedure the other way around. There were shots during this part of the day where our director of photography Louis decided to shoot some candid shots of me and Shelby shopping in a clothing store. This was brilliant as it helped add authenticity to the shots making the footage more natural so it would look better for the audience.
After this me and Shelby went to get changed and we started shooting the "popular" footage. In this me and Shelby can be seen entering Lakeside and coming down a set of escalators. This scene also contained shots of the conventional "popular" kids that have appeared previously in the video mocking Shelby staring in confusion as they passed us on the escalators. This took a few attempts as it was difficult to organize around the general public and at this point we were working with a larger group of people. But in the end this was successful and pretty fun to film.
During our second day of filming we attempted to incorporate a variety of different shot types. Although due to us having to be inconspicuous with our filming we were only able to take our camera with us to lakeside because of this our footage at lakeside is all handheld which we feared might compromise the quality of our footage as it may not be completely stable, However after revising the footage this does not appear to be an issue at this time.
