Arranging Props (1)

The car to be used as a 'police car' is a white Toyota Corolla. 


For a seamless transition from the car scene to the dinky scene, the toy car had to be fairly similar to the police car. Hence, I went to different toy stores to find the perfect toy car.
The shape, size, and price of the toy cars were taken into consideration before I could purchase the perfect dinky. 

 


I noted down the prices and pictures of the final candidates in my mobile and made my decision after carefully going through each option.  
Luckily, the shop keeper was kind enough to agree on lending me that toy car for free, given that I returned it in the same condition. This was important because my production was self-financed and saving money in areas where I could would allow me to spend more in other areas that could benefit my music video (for example renting a drone).

Shooting (Day 3)

Today we had to shoot the police car and dinky scenes. No matter how much you plan a shoot, some problems may inevitably rise. Today I had to deal with two unfortunate situations and make quick decisions. I had cut the letters in the word 'POLICE' out from black chart papers and pasted them on the 'police car'. However, while moving the car from one location to another, the letter 'O' fell off the car. A friend went in his car back the same route to find the cut-out but he couldn't. Subsequently, I decided to remove all the letters from the car and carry on with the shot to prevent wasting further time and decided to add an animated title during editing.  Another problem that I faced was due to the fact that I was swept away in taking care of other stuff and I forgot to double check the costume of my actor, Sheece.  We carried out the scene in which a police officer arrests him. Afterwards, I realized that he had worn a hat which he wasn...
