Filming time
The time came where it was time to film the music video. The plan at first was to leave the house earlier because we wanted more time to film in daylight, but we we cut back. Instead of leaving at two we left around five after we filmed to first few scenes. once we left, we had to stop and get the tickets for the fair. After getting the tickets it was straight to the fair, and we all has high hopes and anticipations. When we got to the fair and started to walk in I decided to take some extra shots of the fair incase I needed it of my music video. The lines were long to buy the tickets, luckily for us we already got the tickets ahead of time and was able to cut the line and get in. We got in and took some shots of the fair and of us and set out to get our passes for unlimited rides. Without those passes we wouldn't be able to ride anything and film, thus messing up the music video. While we waited for my mother to get the passes we were able to film the scene of me and my siblings walking past stands and booths. My father filmed us and made sure to do it how I wanted the shot to look. After we finished filming we walked over to my mother who got the passes and we head out. We couldn't head to far for awhile because other family members were coming to the fair as well. Luckily the places where I had to film weren't to far from the entrance to we could easily get the shots quickly. The problem wasn't the lines, it was catching us in the shot while on the ride or attraction. My mother was the one who was filming at the bottom of the ride with her phone so she had to time it right so we would be in the shot. The first one was easy because it was us on a giant slide, so you could see when we were about to go down. The second shot was more difficult because it was a ride the moves up and then swings you around like a giant yoyo. Me and my siblings made sure to sit where she was so she could at least catch us on the ride. After we got off the ride, she said she got footage of us in midair so it was great and worked out. After filming those two scenes we decided to get some food and eat because we were all hungry. This worked out perfectly because we needed a scene of us eating and casually talking as a sort of cut scene in the music video. After eating and filming we walked around until we found out that some people from the other group got inside and we went to go meet up with them. After finding them we went deeper into the fair and just decided to walk around and take in some of the sights and ride other rides until the rest of the group came. While walking around I found a huge Ferris wheel that I wanted to do the final scene, but everyone agreed to do that at the end before we leave. So after awhile the whole group got together and hung out until it was eleven on the dot and then we went to the Ferris wheel, but instead of the one I saw, it was a different one. The line for the other one was huge so by the time we got on we would be able to go to the exposition and film the dance scene. So me, my siblings, and my cousins went together and got great shots overlooking the fair. When we got down we headed straight to the exposition and filmed the dance scene. Instead of at the bridge, we did it inside because the other end was closed. I will admit the filming in front of other people was embarrassing and I was nervous and it was fun in the end. I was finally done with filming and just checked out the exposition, then went home. filming was fun, even if there were a few embarrassing moments I still enjoyed myself. I'm thankful to all my family members who helped me out and encouraged me. I hope everyone reading this, and special shout out to my family who helped me film and record, I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
