Location Location Location!

Our choice of location was important and a time was spent into researching the best possible locations. Obviously it needed to be reasonably easy for the whole group and actors to get there - so not miles upon miles away for an individual. So we came to the decision to shoot our music video in and around the city of Cambridge. It wasn't difficult to get there and we all were some what familiar with the city.

But what next? we needed to discover individual locations that would be appropriate for the narrative and the mood of the song. What was needed was a recci of some initial location ideas. I looked around the locations and chose what I thought was most suitable. The group was happy so we decided to stick with what I had chosen.

I chose locations which were not to far from toilets and food outlets for when we needed lunch. In case of severe weather - a contingency plan was needed. Our contingency plan was to shoot all INT shots until rain had stopped.
