Tips for filming a 'Performance'

On Wednesday, myself and my classmates were shown videos of previous student's work. As I was watching I made the following quick, few notes on how they had filmed the 'performance' parts of their videos, which potentially might help me in creating my own.

- Lots of close-up shots of instrument use and the performers themselves.
- Dark lighting, few lights. This creates a shadow effect.
- Shold storyboard to give full consideration to lighting, costume, props, location, etc.
- Film numerous angles, even if it means the performer playing/singing on more than one occasion.
