Locations

For my music video I am going to use a number of different locations. I have taken some photos of the possible locations that I am going to use, however I am still looking for other locations.



Beach

I like this location as it is quite secluded, which suits the theme of the song.

When the tide is up, the actor could be standing on the shore looking out at the crashing waves. As the muisc fades in, at the start of the video, the actor could be looking out to sea, but be out of focus, and then is in focus once the music picks up.

By using the Rule-of-Thirds, the actor could stand just off to the side of the screen, making the castle look impressive. Also, I could use Depth of Field to focus on the castle and then onto the actor.

In this shot, the actor could have his back to the camera and be looking out to sea. The Rule-of-Thirds could be used to make the location more interesting as the actor would not be directly in the centre of the frame but rather just off to the left or right of it.

This location would be good as the actor could be leaning against that railings looking out at the boats and this would hopefully give the viewers the idea that he is contemplating about his life, which would suit the song very well.

Castle

From this location the actor can see the castle and the harbour. I like this location as the actor can stand in front of the camera and look out over the castle and boats.

This is another shot of the castle and harbour.

This bench could be used by the actor to sit on as he plays his guitar.

I like this shot as the actor could walk down the road, away from the camera, as the music fades in.

Whilst the music is fading out, at the end of the song, the actor could walk down the lane and disappear from view. 



Back Lanes

Throughout the video shots of the actor walking around/thinking about life will be mixed in with shots of him playing the guitar.

This is another location where the actor could walk down at the end of the song.
