Let the filming begin!

This is a picture if me starting to film my music video! 

Props and Costumes

My Actors!!

Harry Wallace, Aged 17

I have chosen Harry to be the actor which the girl falls in love with in my music video for many reasons. Harry dose drama and is very good which will set the mode by making the reactions look more realistic. Also the way Harry looks he can be either scruffy when he lets his stubble come in and he can look proper which will give me a lot to work with to give him the look i need for this video. He also has the style of clothes which i will need him to wear (Indi). Not only the way he looks is good but his personality is always bright and happy and full of life, this is good! as this is what i want to put across in my character. 

Iona Hall, aged 17

I have chosen Iona to be my actress to play the women character in my music video. I have chosen Iona to be my actress because she to studied drama and also has good understanding of how i want my video to look. Her patients and entertaining manner will make filming more enjoyable and relaxing. She can also pull of the two looks of looking chilled and looking 'proper'. 

Locations!

I am going to use a variety of different locations, from places at home in Edinburgh to places at school. All the locations which I have chosen will allow me to show the different lives of my characters in my music video. And some shots will be aesthetically pleasing. This process is vital to the music video as it will have a huge influence on the outcome of the film. Most of the locations which i have chosen are very quite, this will allow me to film without being disturbed.

One of my locations which i plan to use is my living room in my house. This is where i plan to shoot the beginning, where my actress will be sitting on the seat with a 'drink' using the light of the fireplace. Using black and white effect.   

Another location which i will use, is the front garden/ drive way at my house, and the road outside This is where i will   shoot actress getting in car and driving of.

Below is a picture of a beach where i plan to film the good times and memories which they shared. This will be through out different parts of my music video. I will use sepia effect here

Here is a picture of a field, again used to show memories and good times. Will film the actors in this locations, blowing bubbles into the shot. And use Bokeh effect.

This is a picture of a dinner table, this will be where the arguing will take place.

Below is picture of the north lawn with the lake, this is where i will show the fireworks.
