Filming: French Verse

On Tuesday night I decided to film the French scene in the photography studio. This is the scene where the psycho killer is dressed as a mime and sings.

I ended up having the killer sing the whole song in case he did anything interesting, but here is the parts of the song I was most interested in;

Ce que j'ai fais, ce soir la
Ce qu'elle a dit, ce soir la
Realisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire ... OK
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they're not polite

Psycho Killer,
Qu'est-ce que c'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est-ce que c'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh....

I decided that only this portion of the song would be sung in this scene due to my research into other videos. Most new scenes and costumes in music videos are introduced at a new part of the music. Since I wanted to introduce this scene during the French verse, it is likely that it is only this portion of the song in which it will appear.

I did several takes from a generic mid/long shot camera angle and a couple of close ups too. I did not do as much as I would have liked and I may need to do more for that scene. I also took ma couple of photos.

I ended filming for the whole of the song since I thought i could take any particularly good actions the vocalist made and put them anywhere in the song. However, this means I do not have a very good start for the french verse and subsequently need to refilm. This will be a good opportunity however, as my actor will know his lines better and I know what to tell him to de otc. I can try things differently and stuff.
