2. We decided Dockside for one of our locations for two
reasons. The first is that it is convenient, it’s relatively
close by to where we all live, meaning it’ll be easy to get
there. How close it is also means that we can go after
school one day as it wont take much time to get there
and film everything we have planned in our storyboards.
The second reason that we chose Dockside is that in
appearance, it’s a good place that suits the theme of our
music video well. There are plenty of things there that
we have the option to include, such as the cinema, shops
and restaurants.
3. Like Dockside, Riverside is close to all of our homes,
making it a convenient filming location. It also has a
appealing look to it, and whilst we don’t plan to do a
substantial amount of filming here, we still wanted to
include it in our video as we believe it would appeal to our
target audience.
This will be the only location featured in our video that
has a nature feel to it, and we wanted to include it to
break up all of the city locations.
4. The main reason that we decided on tubes and
trains being a location is to show the audience how
the characters are getting around London. It also
breaks up the different locations as we plan to have
a montage of the tubes in between each scene.
We also liked the idea of using our transport in the
video as it gives us the chance to show of the
friendship between the three characters more. It
shows that even when they’re doing something that
it usually quite boring, like travelling, they have fun
together.
5. We chose Camden as a location as it’s quite
popular, meaning it would make sense for friends
to visit there when on a trip to London.
Eleanor also knows the area quite well, which will
be an advantage to us as we’ll be able to make our
way around without getting lost and hopefully get
our filming done as quickly as possible, allowing us
to move on to the next location.
6. • We decided to use the green screen at our school as it provides us with the
option to use whatever background we want.
• We thought that this would be a good idea as it could show the characters
visiting even more locations that we otherwise wouldn't’t have had the
opportunity to include.
• We also had the idea of using powder paint and using the green screen to
find an appropriate background for this.
7. We’re going to film in Soho at nightime. This is
because we like the look of it better during the
night, and we believe that our target audience
would feel the same way.
The reason Soho is one of our locations is that there
is so much for us to do there, and we think that a
lot of it would look great in our music video and
would appeal to our target audience.
8. Due to where our other locations are, this one will
be easy for us to get to, making the reason we chose
to include it convenience.
It’s also appealing to look at, and shows our
characters visiting even more places, so it made
sense to my group and I for us to use this location
too.
Because of the close distance to the other locations,
we wont have to spend too much time travelling
here to get the footage, and we believe the time we
do spend doing so will be worth it.
9. We’re going to use Winter Wonderland as one of our
final locations featured in the music video. We’re
doing this as we feel like it is one of the most pleasing
to look at and we want to end our music video on a
high note, hopefully making it memorable.
There is so much for us to do at this location, and
visiting a place like this is something friends
typically do together, so we thought doing the same
for our video would be a good idea that would attract
our audience.
