A2 Coursework: Recce Shots

I have used various locations for my music video so that I have a range of shots that would fit the narrative that is within my music video.

	For the first scenes video I use a location that was centred around nature as most of my video would be filmed outside. I felt that this location would be best as I needed a lot of open space that wouldn't have any obstructions that would draw attention away from the performance of my artist  e.g Bins, Signs and litter. I also felt that using an open space would be easier to film in as not many people where in the location.
	The second location is very similar to the first as it is filmed in open space. This the location used when the protagonist tries to approach a girl but then get's rejected. It was very easy to film here as not many people were around and there was enough space to put my filming equipment such as my tripod.
	My next location was on London underground. In this scene the protagonist attempts to get another girl (who is sitting opposite him) to be interested in him, however this does not happen as she moves away from him. My protagonist also lip sync s on the train as I film. I also used the stairs at the train station.
	I used this location as the back drop for my artist's performance. I felt that the bright green of the bushes was a nice background for my to perform against, the location also got every good sunlight making it bright which is one of the themes I wanted to use within my music video  as the brightness also follows the upbeat nature of my music video.
	This is the location I used when my protagonist open the fortune cookie. It was in nice open space that didn't that any distraction meaning my audience will be able to focus on the protagonist.
	The last location I used was a small field with benches. The was a very important location as it is where my protagonist finds the girl who is interested in him. This location got a lot of sunlight which was good as the audience is able to see the  characters clearly.
