Change of Filming Location

After careful consideration, we have decided to switch the location of our performance shots. We were previously set on filming at Yellow Bean Studio, however, we were unable to book any dates in time for the video deadline (No bookings available till after Christmas).

We have now found a new studio called Pirate Studio who are a brand new facility with plenty of times available. They also have far cheaper rates than yellow bean and provide the majority of equipment that we need in the video, including a drum kit, amps, microphones and more. All for almost £40 less than Yellow Bean.

We have planned to film on the 12th of November.

After looking over a number of locations which we could film in we stumbled across a Photography Studio called Yellow Bean Studios. It has a large 26x15ft white room which we could record our performance shots in. Currently, we are in negotiations with the studio on available dates, times and prices that we could book for filming. Additionally, the studio also provides equipment for us to rent, which would save us both time and money.  Also, our filming process would benefit from a completely white room - which includes white flooring. this will make a the room look larger than it actually is. This is something we discussed initially and felt that the use of in the preliminary music video when we used the school's studio could have benefited from. 

The reason we are looking to book a studio is to gain a much larger space than is available at school. Booking the studio in appose to using the school's also means that we aren't reliant on our teachers to let us in and the studio not being used already. The large studio also allows us to film in a more flexible and less confined situations - like our Preliminary Music Video. It will also help to implement certain lighting and shot techniques that we are taking inspiration from.
