4. THE LOCATION
As a group we went to seven locations to film for our media music video. We planned out
where we wanted to film well as we wanted to make sure this is the appropriate
atmosphere for the genre of house/dance music we were trying to achieve.
All of the locations were chosen after we made a storyboarded plan so that we fully
planned out what we wanted to have done in each scene before finding random
locations, this made finding locations more easier as we knew what we were looking for
we just had to find the best location out of the selective few we visited.
