This was the original plan for when we were going to film Wild Moose Chase. It would be an understatement to say we ran over a bit. We underestimated the amount of time it would take to do our research and planning (mainly the story board). This was one of the reasons why we ran over. Another reason was that we had some issues with availability of equipment such as cameras and tripods. When we did have the equipment, we often struggled to find a suitable time to actually film. Other subjects and personal issues interviened but the biggest problem of all was continuity.
Bad continuity was supposed to be a theme running through certain scenes in the music video, such as the scooby doo-esque coridoor scene where costumes are switched and people change places unrealistically. However, we really did try hard to get certain areas of the continuity right, namely the weather and the level of lighting. We started filming in the middle of winter, this meant that it was getting dark early and we didn't have long to film. Also the weather had to be consistent. So for example, when it snowed in January, we couldn't film at all because we had already filmed all indoor scenes to overcome the darkness issue.
In the end we finished filming in mid March which still gave us time to edit and evaluate our work and finish any work that we still had left to do.
