Issues and Location of filming.

I did my first filming last weekend and it turns out that the placeI was going to film which was Jubilee Gardens, turned out to be under construction so I have managed to find another place to film which will be St James's Park. This will create the same effect as Jubilee Gardens as it has the same sort of ambience. Also on the day that I was trying to film, there was a lot of police activity because of protesters in the area. Thismade it difficult tofind a place to film without seeing the police. The next weekend that i plan to film I hope that there will be less police around as they had cornered off places I wanted to film.

The key locations I plan to film in will be quite varied and far apart as there is a train journey during the music video.
The music video starts off in Leatherhead and the train station in that town.


My actor will get on a train towards London Waterloo station and so there are bits of film from outside the train though its hard to put a location on these bits that will be filmed but the filming during this time will represent the change from suburban to urban travel. For example at the beginning of the journey there will be shots of trees going past and as the video continues there will be shots of more built up areas which shows the progression.

The next location will be London Waterloo Station, as it is so big in comparison to the smaller Leatherhead station that the person was last at.
There will be a few shots around here and then I will start filming the outside of London and all the big sight seeing spots. This makes the person think that it is an adventure and he hasn't understood the seriousness of his situation but he does eventually by the end of the video.


The last location is St James Park where he finds a bench to sleep on. This video is on a timescale of about a week and so he gets used to living on the streets by the end of the video.
