The document discusses two potential locations for a music video shoot: 1) A black box room at Haydon School that could be used after school hours. It would provide a controlled environment but may be difficult to book and require perfect lighting setup. 2) An indoor skatepark in Hemel Hempstead that would allow filming of skate tricks. It has free filming permission but could be busy, making filming difficult. It is also not very close, posing issues for travel during rush hour. Either location would require booking in advance.
