"Skarlet" MTV
I had my very
first music video shoot yesterday :) IT WAS VERY FUN.
Since I was still sick yesterday, I had doubts if I was still going to the shoot or not... but I decided to push through with it. First stop... dad's rehearsal. We went to
Circus Studios and he rehearsed some songs with a band. I love the songs. :) and I love the rehearsal studio. =)) it was a cozy place. I love the guitars there. =))
Second stop..
UP Diliman. That was at around 4 pm. Call time was at 3, but we were there at 4 because of dad's rehearsal:)) I met a lot of new people.
Tita Myra (Skarlet) made me choose a dress to wear. I LOVE MY OUTFIT! It was a gray velvet cocktail/cake dress. Then I had this long beady choker on, and gold shoes. I had my hair fixed, too. LOVE IT.
The video's theme was
Chicago-inspired. About the
1920's. There were a lot of
crime scenes and violence in the video. My role was ... I was a
party girl during the 20's (one of the
few who are invited to Swing parties in the 20's. I loved my role :P hahaha! let me quote Joaquin: "cream of the crop"). :)) a "Swing kid" to be exact. We just kept on partying and dancing there, like wild 20's kids. :)) my dad was there too. He was part of the band. :)
I LOVED THE SET! It was sooooo cool. :)
We were on stand-by really early. Joaquin Valdes was there. He was our assistant director. Hot. :P He told us that our shoot would start after dinner (we were there since 4. :|), but no, our sequences started at around 10. =)) and those were still our rehearsal shots. It was pretty tiring. We had how many takes because of the different camera angles. At around 1 am, I got sleepy, so I slept on the set for a while. =)) maybe 30 minutes, while waiting for our next sequence. When I woke up I was all giddy again then we had to shoot again. =)) I got new friends! The dancers and Justine. And all the other cast, too. :) everyone was friendly. :) I was the youngest, though.
The shoot ended at 3 am with two takes of the "panic" scene which hurt my feet. =)) it was the scene where we had to run to some place from the dark (to a dark alley still) without looking at the camera:)) it was hard coz you really don't know where the camera is not until you're there. Plus the floor was uhhh, not
pantay. =)) really like an alley, plus there were blood marks and stuff (the video was violent. :P)
I wanted to die in the video:)) but apparently I didn't. I just ran out panicking. =))
I can't wait until I see the video. I wonder how it'll come out? I'm not even sure if I would be seen in the video most of the time but whatev. WATCH OUT FOR IT ON MYX! :) I suppose that's where it'll air first since there were Myx people there yesterday.
"Skarlet" by Skarlet :)My dad and I got home at 4 am... that's why I'm out of school for today. :)) but that's not the only reason why I'm absent.
