Originally we wanted to film the majority of our music video in Southend. We would film the Pier, Arcades, Chip Shop, Amusement park etc. This was a few ideas from our original narrative, however, in the new narrative, Southend is no longer needed for practicality reasons as if we needed more footage it is longer to drive to. Here are some photos of places we could have filmed in Southend.
We also wanted film some of our music video in a Roller-skating Rink. We looked around at local roller-skating rinks and we felt that SK8ATERS in Maldon would be best. Here are some photos;
We also thought about filming in the Promenade park which Is located next to the roller-skating rink as this would provide us with the park idea we had in our narrative.
We also thought about going to Crazy golf as then we would be able to get some shots of the older and the younger characters to show memories.
We also wanted to have a few shots in a woodland area and with this location, we struggled to find a suitable location for our needs. However, we felt that Hylands park would be a great place as we would be able to use the house as a setting as well.
All of these locations involve meanings, for example, we used Hylands House to reference the friendship is like the layer of a house. In the music video it is the development of a friendship, therefore, this is referring to the metaphor of the house.
We all liked these locations mainly because they're a little bit random and we saw this a lot of different music videos and how they had used random locations. We also used these locations because these where often places where teenagers would go to therefore we were obtaining our target audience. Also, these locations had references to the song such as the locations such as the park showed friendship and memories.
This will help us as it has allowed us to think about the importance of our locations and see whether they're accessible and we have also thought about the fact that some of our locations we will need to have permission.
