Progress problems

I am still finding it hard to find people to be in my video because of where and when I need to film it. This leads to me still not having started filming yet which is a major issue. To solve this problem I have to decide whether to change my ideas for the video, but I'm lost on ideas for the song I'm doing other than what I have already planned.  This has lead to lots of difficulties, because it is unlikely that I will be able to find people to be in the video at the time and requirements I need to achieve it and have no ideas on how to change it. One option I see is that I have an idea for a different song in which I would be able to film more quickly and easily. I don't see a problem with changing my idea because I haven't been able to begin filming for the original idea, but I have yet to discuss this with Miss Hill.

Why does love do this to me? - preliminary

For our preliminary task we had to do a quick music video for the song "why does love do this to me?" by The Exponents. We had a couple of weeks to film, edit and finish the task. We succeeded in finishing the task but unfortunately our footage was lost and we did not have the chance to redo it. Fortunately for us we still retained what we had learnt from producing all of our video. During the making of our preliminary task we used new technologies that we had never used before so we have benefited from this greatly. Firstly whilst filming we learnt a lot more of how to use the camera and get the best shots we needed for our prelim. Whilst editing we learnt how to better use Final Cut. We learnt lots of very good methods on how to edit our video to achieve what we wanted as well as all the techniques that we need to use in our final music video, E.g split screening. Even though we have nothing physical to take away from the task I feel like it has been a very valuable experience.
