Filming for my music video is almost ready.
I've decided to work with the band 'We Say When' and create a music video for them. I intend to include a mixture of shots, from them in the studio recording and practicising, to them actually playing live. I will get the shots of them playing live and then sync them in time with the music.
We're going to carry all the equipment into a field, and film the band performing. The equipment will include guitars, amplifiers, a drumkit and a microphone and all cables to make the performance look as authentic as possible.
We discussed locations, and went to three of them to decide the best place to film. We went to a field in Heald Green, but it was too busy and disruptions were likely. We also thought about filming the performance in a 'practice room', but it seemed too boring and uninspired. Eventually, we went to a field in Poynton, near the band's bassist's house. The field was large and at the time we were going to be filming, wouldn't be very busy. We walked round the whole area, looking for the best place to film. We eventually decided on one spot, near the path (Therefore making it easier for us to transport the equipment) and with a great view behind us. The field can often be very busy, so we'll have to film at a time when it's not that busy, to avoid the music annoying people. However, it may make for interesting mise en scene to have people walking past and seeing the band playing.
