Location

For a number of clips in my music video I want many different angles of the lead singer lip syncing and playing guitar in an empty field.  Around the area I live in, there are plenty of fields to choose from to shoot in. I have been to each field and take a picture of the setting to decided which one would be the best for our piece.


This is the first field I viewed as a potential setting for certain sections my video. I felt this field was compatable because it's a large open space in school which meant it was easy access, however, this field is not perfect as there are cars and the drive in the far background which may confuse the audience and takes away the mysterious feel.



This is the second potential setting, I feel this field would be the best place to set our piece as there is a wood in the background which will really contribute toward the mysterious and dark theme. However, the rugby 'H' is a huge distraction, although I can film past this obstruction so it isn't in view. 




This is another potential set, I do not feel this set would work as the field is far too small and the cage can be seen in the left side of the screen. Although the wood in the background is effective I have already found this in the second set (shown above) and so I don't feel this set is as good.


For other shots in the music video the main character is shown from different angles, playing and singing as he walks down a road within a housing estate. I already have an area in mind that I feel will be perfect for the type of shots I wish to achieve, I just haven't had the opportunity to take pictures of the set yet.


Furthermore, I also wish to have close up shots of myself and the main character lip syncing in front of a brick wall. Luckily I have recently had an extension built into my home that shows a bare brick wall on the inside of the room. This would be a suitable location for the close up shots as it can be easily accessible and creates a good rural feel for the track.
