However, Toby replied saying that Monday was not a good day for them, suggesting instead that we go the following Thursday. We have agreed to this so tomorrow me and Ed are going into Leeds to film them at Pirate Studios. We are taking 3 three cameras, one which we will just set up as an master shot and two which we will use to get more close-up and different angled shots. We will do the initial run through with the 3 cameras on tripods to get three steady, solid angles which we can then refer back to throughout the video. Then we will turn off the master shot and just use the two other cameras to get some more interesting music videos such as the low, side angles we've seen in other performance based videos such as Maroon 5's 'Harder to Breathe'. Hopefully we will then be able to get a variety of interesting shot types and angles as well as 3 steady core shots which we can use to create our 'music video within the music video'.
We have been thinking about going into Leeds to just get some preliminary shots and establishing shots we can use for the introduction of our video. When we found out we would be in Leeds filming at the studio on Thursday, we realised it coincided with the Christmas lights switch on which we had wanted to go to to get some 'happy' footage which we can contrast with our 'sad' stuff surrounding the homeless person. Therefore me and Ed are going to stay in Leeds to capture the light switch on which we may even use when we start to introduce colour. We also had a look to see what else was going on and saw that there is a 2 hour concert on before the lights are actually turned on so we thought we could film some of this as well, perhaps of the stage or maybe just of the crowd to try and capture the atmosphere.
So hopefully, after Thursday, we should have our first footage for the narrative side of the video and all the footage of the performance aspects.
