Location Ideas

There are 3 main locations to our video. One of them is the place in which we will be recording the performance aspect of our video, and the two different parties that Emily is having. One of the parties being with her family, the other being with her friends.


Location 1- Performance

This performance done by the band will be based in an old wooden barn. The reason we have decided to have this as our location is because the old feel to it will have good contrast against the suits that all the band members will be wearing. The old barn mixed with the new suits will comply to the genre characteristics of indie rock which is the genre of our song.

 Location 2 - Narrative 1 (Family Party)

This will be based inside a house, there will be typical party things such as balloons, food and banners. We will try to get a feeling of comfort and safety across from the location this will help to tell the narrative as the song progresses. There will be family members surrounding 'Emily.' As well as the feeling of safety in her own home, we will also try to get across a mood of boredom and annoyance that Emily is feeling as she wants to leave her home and party with her friends. Her family members will be patronising her and making her feel like she is still a 'little girl.'

 
Location 3 - Narrative 2 (Typical Teenage Party With Friends)

This will be based in a field, that is deserted and isn't near any other houses. We will base this on the typical teenage gathering, with a group of friends going out to get drunk and been stupid. We will film at this location when it is dark to give an uncomfortable feel, and show that 'Emily' and her friends are vunerable. The field will be grassy with nothing of interest around, this will show isolation and seclusion for her. This location should be a complete contrast to Location 2 (the family party.)
