Pictures from the Montreal Shoot



Hello

This weekend I just came back from Montreal shooting a music video. The schedule was very hectic. We had 16 hour day periods and very little sleep. The shoot however went well, because most of the location were close to one another.

The first day we got there, we were suppose to be filming the city view in Montreal but we got lost and only got to film a small portion of it. We were running late so we decided to head to our next location which took place in the mountain. We drag our equipment up the slope and set up for our first shot. After the mountain scene, we head back down for lunch, unfortunately, it started to rain. I thought to myself, since we were already behind schedule, we had to keep moving, despite the rain we went out to film the street scenes. We then went to film an indoor scene at the "book store". That scene took long to do because of the POV shots. Luckily by the evening the rain cleared and we were able to film the motorcycle scene.

The next day, it was cold, but the sun came out. Our location took place at the "record store". This scene we ended on time. We had lunch and headed to our next location which was the poker scene. The poker scene and the club scene were the two most difficult scenes due to the amount of people involved. The scene went through without too many problems. The last two scenes were the last scenes for the weekend.

We filmed a music video in two days! There were many things that would've gone worse but everyone came together and pulled it through. We learned so much during this production, the main thing about a film production is good communication in which we could have improved on. I really want to thank my crew and cast for putting this together. I can't wait to show you the music video. For now you can listen to the music at Melina's site under "City of Love". Keep visiting for more updates.
