Planning: Preparation of filming

In one of our meetings, we discussed our next steps in terms of filming our video. We wanted to film the band shots first, where we would film the band playing instruments to the song as we have decided to incorporate both performance and a narrative within our music video. We decided within our meetings that we would use the drama studio at our school as our location for the performance shots. The main reason behind this decision is because our drama studio has a plain black background in which the band would look good against when the drama lights are shone on them, creating a moody atmosphere for the music video which fits nicely with the alternative rock genre. The props that we need for this video shoot are: amp, guitair, drums, wires, and a microphone. Our camera equipment will consist of: the dolly, a jib, tripod, steadycam, stills camera as well as two video cameras. As a group we're excited to finally start filming, fingers crossed the shoot will look as good as we envisage it!
