Here we're looking at some potential locations for our music video.
In the video above we're at Meadfoot (the beach) in the weather conditions we want for our beach scenes, a very grey and miserable backdrop - to emphasise our characters loneliness and negative emotions. Unfortunately as the tide was in we had very little room to do test shots; however, it gave us a good indication of what our beach scenes will look like.
We also went to Dawlish Warren (see below) to see if the beach there would be more effective, due to its more remote location. In terms of practicality however, Meadfoot would be much easier for filming, so, as our filming is weather dependant, we will have to play it by ear as to which location we use. We'll look at forecast for both Dawlish Warren and Meadfoot and see which one provides us with the maximum time in the weather conditions that fits all our schedules.
We also went to two woodland locations, the one featured in the video above (Daddyhole Plain) and also a woodland path in Highweek village (see below). Like Meadfoot, Daddyhole Plain's benefit is its accessibility; however, the Highweek woodland path fits our vision more. The path also leads to a graveyard which is perfect for our final scene and so we've chosen the Highweek woodland path to shoot our wood scenes (and graveyard scenes) as, despite it taking more effort to get to, it will provide more aesthetically pleasing footage.
In terms of the house scenes, we've chosen Connie's house due to it being near the school which will ease the pressure of time constraints. Her lounge's pastel pink walls also provide a warm and atmosphere that will be desirable for our scenes as we want them to appear cosy and intimate.
