Filming 'Angel on Fire' - Day Five Diary



This day was dedicated to burning props such as roses and sticky notes, which is to be inserted into the chorus of the song. The plan for the chorus is to have Outlex burn roses to match the lyrics, and there would be a lot of conceptual imagery involved.
However this did not go exactly to plan, turns out roses don't burn easily, so we were unable to obtain this footage. However we still used the opportunity to film shots in which Erika was lip syncing with either one or multiple roses, or posing and pulling parts off of them for extra shots.
We still managed to get a shot of Erika with burning sticky notes, even if it did take a while to actually set the match and notes on fire (it was extremely cold outside).
After this all of the burning scenes were done and we just got a few shots of Erika lip syncing to the chorus that can be inserted in between the burning scenes. We did one from a canted angle with her in the corner, as we wanted to have this illusion of mystery and confusion, as it reflects Outlex's feelings and thoughts.
After this we were done! We didn't have much to do today unlike other days, but our next steps are to finish the studio scenes, go to soho and do photography for Outlex's brand image!
