Above are some shot's of locations I may use in my music video that I have access to. These include public places in Central London such as the greenery in front of Westminster Abbey, A skate park in North London, a set of hills on the outskirts of London and Alexandra Palace.
I had an idea that I wanted to play about with, but I couldn't really tell if it would work unless I actually created it! So, I told my little sister to do a few simple things to try and portray the concept. Ofcourse, this is not any actual footage for my final music video, just a test shot. There will be continuity errors!
For the artists in my music video, I first of all wrote down on a sheet paper all of the people that I could use to portray an artist. After making this list, I realised one thing, none of these people are actual artists or have been in a music video before... which isn't necessarily a problem. However, how much better would it be if I could use REAL artist(s)?
So I contacted this underground UK rap group known as the 'Marvell Boys'
They have a fanbase of around 50,000 subscribers and listeners and get over 100,000 views on each of their videos. The kind artists agreed to let me use them in mu music video, fundamentally, this is a great time saver as I do not have to train someone how to behave infront of a camera.
Here is a clip I made of some of their work in a montage:
So recently I have been planning to shoot my video with all the plans that I have completed. I had planned to shoot the first scene of my video last friday, however due to unfortunatley falling ill, I had to cancel on my artists and the shoot. However I will be shooting this week my first scene and other scenes that include the artists lip synching.
Hopefully, by getting these scenes done this week I will still be on time and will not be behind on my work. Planning wise, I am compelete and ready to film. I have only got minor adjustments to make now.
