Yesterday I finally took part in the swimming pool shooting for my music video. I recorded this my using a GroPro under water. After a while of using it I got used to the way it worked. I found that once I had put my files onto the computer that the GroPro recorded widely. So ideally i would of used a deeper pool and weights to drag me down lower so that the recording was as close. The recording did turn out the way I wanted it to but as you will see in the photos that I have provided below, the pool as a pattern of white and dark blue. This may require a large amount of editing to make the footage look less like a pool, to also make it look darker.
Overall I am pleased with the actual footage that I was able to receive.
I used two different ways of shooting. For the first half I used a poll that was able to extend and tilt up for when she would swim over the recording. Then for the second part i used the GroPro on a chest strap. This didn't work as well and it gave the wrong effect. It looked like the type of recording used for the genre of dance music. So less of that recording was used for the video. The strap looking like footage from dance music is that in this genre of music, first person footage is highly used when they are on an adventure through pools and beaches.

Double Exposure on Photoshop
I done further research on how i can achieve double exposure those the use of Photoshop, even though my main idea was to use the double exposure technique. I can also apply it through synergy with my website. I tried it out on a photo on the model, although her skin has turned a strange colour of yellow as I used the yellow ink photo without noticing it would change the colour of her skin to exactly that yellow. As I have the final planned photoshop and the final piece of her filming tomorrow, I will be able to set up the photoshoot to also work a few images with the double exposure look. I have done my research through tutorial videos so I could try a different amount of ways.
The final way I had agreed to be the best way for me is the link below:

These are also some of the steps that I followed through.

Double Exposure
Whilst working on my music video, I came across a song by Bring Me The horizon - Throne. In this video i liked the way they crossed the artists with other sequences like form the image below. After research I found that this was called multiple and double exposure. M aim from this research is to work this into my music video as the song mention 'don't hurt your bran' the crossing of two movements look confusing just like how the lyrics mention. I would not apply this directly to the artist that features in my video video but I would apply to the swimming pool scenes and later on ink footage through the video. Due to it showing the struggling. Because I have used effects just a strobe and manipulation of colour on my artists that double exposure is a subtle way of changing how my video will come across and correspond with the lyrics even more.

Swimming Pool Delay
Due to the delay on being able to shoot in a swimming pool, the coming together of the music video has also been delayed, there is a plan to shoot in the swimming pool next week and to have a final shoot with the main character (female) next week so that i can finally finish the video. Even though this has set me back in terms of my music video being finished before my desired deadline it has allowed me to finish my digi-pack before my desired deadline and get through a large course of my website.
