Planning : Learning to play the piano

In the first few shots at the beginning of our music video we were planning on filming me play the piano to the song. As i don't know how to play merry happy on keyboard i wanted to learn so that when it came to filming i would be more confident in my skills. This in turn hopefully will make it more believable and make me seem like i know what i'm doing in the video.

Here's a video i found on Youtube teaching me how i can play 'Merry Happy on the piano , as i only have a keyboard at home i'm making sure to get in as much practise as possible before we start filming at my friends house on Sunday who has an actual piano.

As i couldn't find the plug for my keyboard i just practised getting my fingers positioned correctly .

Me playing it all at once

I learnt that the right finger never moves and it's only the left finger that does , all in all i found it's pretty simple to learn the positions of the finers and which key's to use. Learning to play merry happy on the keyboard is better then arriving at my friends house and winging it for the camera.
