About the video

For the cast for my music video I am going to use a group of friends who were previously in a band together. They do however play and prefer a different kind of music, that being classic metal, however they all have had experience playing with classical intruments. There will be only two guitarists and and singer, one of the guitarists will be playing a Yukilele and the other will be playing a classical guitar.

I hope to film the beginning of the music video in the great hall of my old school, Bancrofts. I am still waiting for a reply to whether or not I have permission to do this, if not I will have to relocate perhaps to the great hall of my current school, which will create difficulties in terms of how I will be able to get my cast together. The reson why I am eager to use the great hall is because I could use the balcony for bird's eye shot of my character which I plan to use at the beginning of my music video. I am going to use various shots at different angles on my character and on the different props so that the viewers gets a good idea of the situation.

The rest of the video will be filmed on different modes of transport. The character is still being followed by the band so I will have to choose trains and buses that have very little people on them. I want flashbacks of the main character's past times with his girlfriend flickering on the screen as he sings on the trains and the buses. I plan to get a long shot of the character walking down a vast alley or field.  This I feel would fit more in with my genre of music due to the more empty atmosphere.

Nearing the end of the song I am planning on the rest of the video being flashbacks. The flashbacks are going to be set in inner London, with first-person and third person shots. By doing this I am planning on creating a more dreamy effect, in editing i will also have these shots fade in and out on screen.

The ending of the video will be fimed in a counsel house estate. However when the character goes inside I will use footage from inside a house as I do not have access to a cousel house interior. When the music starts to die down the character will knok on the door, as the music finishes the ex-girlfriend will close the door and main characterwill walk away. I am planning on using a low angle shot here for more dramatic effect.
