Locations for my video

Studio
A good product is defined by the quality not the quantity. By that the length of the video isn't as important as the quality. The length of my video is 3minutes and 40seconds. The locations of my video have been carefully chosen to fit the song lyrics and the pace of the song, for example for the slower paced areas of the song i have the studio at Wyke which I am planning on booking out for recording in. the reason I am doing it in the studio for the slower paced areas of the song is because it is a darker environment and there are less distractions for the viewer. this is good for the slower paced songs as you are more likely to concentrate on the lyrics of the song rather than the video itself.

The studio will be set up for a one person sitting. My performer will be sat on a chair with a guitar and mic singing the song. The main focus of the camera will always be one the artist.
The camera shots that I will be using will never reach out further than a medium long shot. this is because it's a small room and there is no reason to extend further out because there is no narrative story being played.

Welton Waters
Welton Waters is a small lake in my town area, it's used for water skiing and other various water sports. It has a high verge on one side of the lake and on the other is the river humber. The video will be recorded with the lake in the background as it is more scenic than the humber. The ground is dusty, this is good for the areas of the song were there are sudden fast paced areas as the dust can be kicked up to create suspension to a new line. The shots available in this area are anything from a long shot down, an extreme long shot is too far away and there is too much open space to try and fill.


Long flat back road
On the outskirts of my village there is a very long flat road which is hardly used. This is a very good location and it takes about 5minutes to walk from one end to another. This would be a good location for filming in as it isn't used often because there is a more direct route not far away. The reason why it's good that it isn't used much is so that my artist can walk down the road in the centre and not get disturbed. When shooting this video I will have the camera on one angle perminantly. The angle will be a long shot of him walking and singing the song.

Old windmill at Hessle foreshore
The old windmill at Hessle foreshore is a good location for my video. The video would be a medium long shot looking up at Eddie with the windmill in the background. This will be good as with Eddie looking down at the camera he would look intimidating and also looks as if there is a more personal effect to the song.
