Camera Test

The purpose of a camera test is to make sure that you are happy with what your cast look like on camera. People appear differently on camera than they do in person, hence the reason for a camera test. You may think that there are perfect for the part however, they may not look right on screen.
Another reason for a camera test is to make sure they are easy to work with. In this sence I mean if they follow directions well. If they appear awquard to instructions then you maybe should consider replacing them. With pop videos you want to make sure you actors appear as comfortable as possible. If the actors look umcomfortable and awquard on camera then this will reflect in how the audience feels about your video.
We decided to choose our cast becuase they fit the part of looking swet and inocent, very free and lighthearted. We choose our cast to look like this becuase we felt it fitted with the music and lyrics well.
For our camera test we recorded our cast talking and all angles of them(front, side and back) this was to make sure that they appeared how we needed at all angles.
