I have now taken all of the shots I needed from the gambling scene. I managed to get 4 people, including the protagonist, to be in the music video, which seemed to be a good number so there would be one person on each side of the table. We used the drama studio, and set up a gambling table for the 'actors' to sit around. There were a few staged shots that I used, where I directed my friends who were in the music video. However, for many of the shots I told them to play poker, and they ignored me whilst I filmed around them. This was not my original intention, but it worked well as there was less acting needed.
One issue encountered during the filming was the fact that the drama curtains did not cover every wall, which lead to me only being able to film from one side. Although, I do not think it will notice in the music video. Another issue was the stage lights, they were not working, which meant we had to rely on the standard overhead lighting. To conclude, apart from a few minor problems, I think the filming was a success, as I now have plenty of footage.
