Shot location - Adapted

Now I have changed my idea for the video, I need new locations for my shots.

Opening scene 


I am in two minds whether or not to film the breakdown scene at Lyndhurst road or not. Although this location would still give me all the qualities i need, i have problems with getting people and equipment to the spot. I feel somewhere closer to Ringwood, where transport is generally easier would be a safer option, especially if I am forced to re-shoot. I found a little place, with a little car parking bay at the side of the road, with a gate next to it ,  which i could get the character sat on whilst singing. The sun is fairly similar, and is at the top of the road around 1 o'clock at the moment.

Bridge + Chorus


Dan's house- Stairs up to his room.

Second Verse


This incudes shots of the main character skating to meet his friends. I haven't much of an idea, where to shoot this, but i think i will drive round the back roads and see if i can spot a suitable location.

Bridge + Chorus 


Dan's house - Stairs (down) , outside pavement and layby.

Final scene


The final scene will be set at my friends cabin. this is a place where we usually chill out , and so i feel it would be nice to film it. Also it matches the track very well, with a warm feel about the place, and random gear like surfboards that will fit the video.

Ideas - 2

Instead of the final scene being a camping outdoor scene, i feel now this just will not be possible with the ranging factors. So i will have to create an an indoor enviroment for the last party which suits the video. This will be hard as the outdoor element was a key part of my video, so getting the right setting will e vital.

If i change my last scene, this changes the other scenes with exception of the opening. This is because all the scenes build up to this last scene.

Chrous 1

I think now i will make the chrrous more performance based , instead of the chrous seeting the scene for the last section. However this leaves me with one verse to get the hitchhiking band from one place to another, I could use jump cuts and imply they have recieved a lift, but this still leaves problems with the second verse.

Second verse - finish

This is the main problem, i was thinking the band traverling to a gig venue. However although this idea could work, im faced with a few issues with the number people and the setting. I am going to hold a gathering round my house, and get some footage for the last scene. I don't think it will give the same impression, but i will get the footage and that will determine how i will shoot the second verse. As the second verse builds up to chronologically to the last scene, so i need to try and keep contiuity.


Last scene

I am going to try and get to different scenes shot, and then i will decide which works the best.
-First scene i will try and shoot is the camping scene , however in my garden this time.
-The next scene i will shoot will be a performanced based, gig style atmosphere in my house.

I will see which turns out the best, and go from there.
