Location

Different types of location: 

Outside in the public.

This is a typical city scene. You can use the outside locations for almost anything. It is also good to show the audience where you have set your video. A good advantage of using public places is that you don't have to get permission from anyone or pay to hire it. This will help us because we don't have a film budget. 

Studios: 

These are examples of some studio's that you could use in music videos. The top one is a music studio. This is a good location to use if you want to show the audience just the song, unlike the public area there isn't a story to show it's just about the song and the artist. The bottom one is a dance studio. This can show dancers dancing to the music or you can use it to film in. A dance studio is just an empty space with mirrors so in effect can e used to film almost anything. I think that the dance studio will be something that we will consider because we want our video to be dance related. On problem that we might face is the cost of hiring out these areas. Because they are always in use you will have to pay to hire it and have to find time that fits with the tenant. This could cause a problem with filming time. 

Clubs/pubs/social areas:

These two location are also good for different types of music. The pub could be used to tell a story about the song, and it also set the scene. You could incorporate the public location with this as well. Pubs are good if you haven't got a story behind your song because you can create a story in it. Clubs are another good place to shoot a video. If you use a club the song is usually more of a upbeat hip-hop or dance track. It is a easy location to use because the content of the video is already planned out. The one thing that would be a problem for us would be hiring it out and getting the amount of people to fill it out. You also have to have the right equipment to film it correctly, the right lighting etc...
