Location Discussion

We were going to film the first scene for our video in the media recording room because it would be easier and warmer as the weather is getting worse, however it wouldn't give off the same effect like we wanted it to on the storyboard as the male character will be the cannibals attraction and when she begins to hurt him and he knows what's going to happen next he is supposed to run down a long path situated in a forest like place so it looks like he doesn't know where he will end up, this couldn't happen in the television studio because only a background would be used and the effect would be just taken away.
For example below is an image of someone stood in front of a green screen although the background he uses may look believable the actual scene may not work just being stood in one position, but in a music video this wouldn't be tolerated and wouldn't link to the usual conventions especially because we are using a up beat song movement will be needed throughout to keep the viewers entertained.



However this dark and deserted alleyway below gives off a much more professional feel to it and for our scene we want to film the male character running quite a long distance away from the main character, so a long alleyway would be the perfect destination also if it is run down and deserted it adds more of the grungy/horror atmosphere to the overall shots and if there is streets coming off the alleyways then the main character could hide in them and jump out on the male which again would add to the suspense of the video and shock viewers which is what we intend to do.
