Band shoot - the update

Group 35 shot in the previously mentioned location yesterday to gather more essential footage. The shoot was the most productive and successful of the project. We came together and shot the full song from at least 4 separate angles with very little problems, goofs or second takes. The location and the setup arranged proved very successful and aesthetically pleasing. We feel it appears very professional and gives more feeling and a real message to the video. Although all instruments were mimed very badly, we had fun and produced the best footage of the project.
