Reference to visualswith
people inconstant motion is
an idea of a shot that is to
feature in the musicvideo.
Liverpool Streethas a lot of
this; people are constantly
moving as they enterthe
train station and leave.The
staircase allowsus to filmthe
motion ofthe people from
and high angle where a long
shot can be usedto capture
the whole scene;thismade
the locationvery appropriate

Notes
Sound Problems:All locations are locatedaround busyareas whichconsist of busy roads from which
car soundswill travel;the sound isfaint and won’timpact the filmingmajorly. Location 4 has road
works taking place externallynearbyand some sound from the roadworks will most likelyimpact the
filmingina sense that when playingthe soundtrack (Take Care) in the background of the filming,the
sound will be over taken by the sound ofthe roadworks, howeverthis can be easilyhandledby
increasingthe volume of the soundtrack.
AmbientLight: In the Internal shots, lightingwill come from windowsinside the buildingthat will
provide us with the right amount of lightnecessaryin the shot.
