Locations We have decided to use more than one location for our video. We will use editing techniques to join locations together creating a continuous flow. Opening scene for our video, park early morning switch in location to (Central London)  We could video a house party for our main scene, this can be natural or artificial ‘ Party in the park’-We could use effects to slow down some aspects to make them fit in with slow sections in the song. We will create a built up party scene using a large group of people. We could base our location on weather for that day, if sunny park location would be best or is possible London. Videoing ‘skate park in London’ presenting natural behaviour/setting, this will be used during  a fast flowing section of the song.
Costume Videoing a house party- costume will follow with party rules e.g. Luminous colours, fancy dress, smart/casual etc. This will save time as we will not have to prepare outfits in advance. If we create our own party scene we will adapt costumes/Outfits to suit our video this will take time as we will have to plan all this ourselves. We will adapt outfits ourselves depending on location/scene etc. For our party scene we will have our actors dressing casual, we will then film without them knowing, this way we will be able to get more natural behaviour making a more effective video. Again here costumes will be natural, we will film them in what they are wearing at that time, in effect this will involve little effort from us.
Props For our ‘party’ scene we could use the effect of luminous paint along with a mix of effective lighting to create an illuminated party scene. For our park scene we will use appropriate props in order to create a fun, lively atmosphere. Feathers: we could use feathered pillows for an outside pillow fight scene We can include gadgets such as mobiles into our video, we could use a frame within a frame e.g. videoing someone videoing something else. Jewellery: We can get our actors to wear lots of jewellery to add effect to the video. We could make our female actors fit R’n’B stereotypes by getting them to wear full on make-up.
People We could have someone as front singer miming to song, the camera will be focused on this person at the very beginning and at the end.  Unknown people being naturally filmed this will make up part of our video, this comes with little effort from us as they are already there so would not have to plan as much into this. We will be able to zoom in and out on certain points to make them stand out. We will ask a group of people to join in with our filming at the park, party scenes. This will involve a lot of planning on our behalf as we will have to decide on final location, people and times etc.  We could set up a group on Facebook in order to get a group together, this way we will have people who volunteer to take part. As a group we will be involved in creating scenes, what people will be doing, being in control of dealing with props and locations including taking part in videoing and editing etc.
