Settings and Location

The setting of our music video is going to be in the urban/sub urban parts of London. With the lyrics of our song, we thought that 'rough' areas of London could be used as our location due to the title of the song 'Getting Nowhere'. The fact that the main character in our video isn’t getting anywhere although he does try to, a typical less wealthy part of London could be portrayed well in our video.

As far as actual locations go, we ideally want a block of flats/council estate to shoot at. We thought maybe Brixton and other parts of South London would be quite good to shoot at. Primarily we want to have a block of flats with a playground or small green outside. As we don’t know any locations like this, we will have to do a bit of travelling around London to find the location we plan to use. As well as the idea of council estate idea, we would like to have a nearby high-street to get a few cinematic shots of the area itself.

We would like to shoot the whole thing during daylight/dusk hours along with a scene shot at night. As we don’t have proper lighting equipment, we will have to find a location which is quite well lit.
