Locations

As the song we are making a music video for is considered as industrial, to get a similar feel to the song, we thought it would be a good idea to film our video on an industrial estate. Two immediately spring to mind, as they are located fairly near our school and where we live. This is the area of purley way in Croydon and the industrial estate just outside our school. These areas have quite a grey and bland look, which on a cloudy day, will create a good atmosphere that will fit the song. There are also areas around Sydenham that look fairly old and run down that we can use easily as it is located near us. We also found some good locations that would suit the video around West Croydon by using Google streetview to take a look at the area. This proved very useful for finding specific locations, making the process of finding locations much faster. For the shots of the singer, we are going to film the actor in front of the green screen in our Media Studies department so we have a freedom of choice with the background. We have also found an area in the outskirts of Croydon near a woods, where we think it will be a good idea to locate the attack, as it would be a good place to commit a crime due to the cover from the trees and the isolation from other people.
