Shot List

Shot List:

Our shot list was subject to change on the day after we tested out various shots which were not always as desirable as we had originally thought. We also filmed extra coverage. Due to the notion of the lip-syncing shots being handheld, we decided not to constrain ourselves to specific shot types and therefore, on set we created our own shots spontaneously giving the band members warning that we were going to track between them. This made the shots more natural.
