Derelict Hospital
I noticed that in a lot of music videos and pop specifically there is often use of derelict places, this provides a nice balance between the glamor of the artist and the location, it also adds character to the artist, as young and free and as a "rule breaker". This theme of isolated buildings/areas can be seen in many videos such as "Take It Off" by Kesha for example which has a similar idea as ours- using paint etc. Another example is "I Found You". Because of this I suggested to the group that we look at an deserted hospital near were we live, however, we would have to get permission which could be difficult. The building may not also be safe. If we plan on using it then we would have to do a location recce and ask for permissions to go inside and film.
One of the other locations we have been looking at is Painshill Park, this is a really nice location as it has lots of different areas that we could use. We need to look into getting permission to perform there, and I have been drafting the email to them. We have also been planning to go and see the location one weekend, if we haven't had a reply to our email by then, we will also see if we can talk to someone and negotiate a couple of ours or so, obviously no budget limits where we can go.
Here is a short video of some pictures from Painshill Park.
Richmond Park
If we are declined filming in Painshill we can always use our local park, although we were hoping not to as many of the other videos we have seen from previous years have.
White and Black Studio
We have also been thinking of using a white studio as we have seen those in a number of music videos, and especially in ones that use paint etc, for example Colour Bandits. This looks really clean and professional, and we think we look great on camera.
We have also been toying with using the drama studios at school which are black inside, this is where we would do some glow in the dark paint scenes, we can play with lighting in here too.
