Request email - Permission to film at Olympic Park by Jessie

One of my team members, Jessie, has emailed Olympic Park, asking for permission to film on their premises. We are yet to receive a response back from them. 

However, since Leake street (our other location) is a public area, there is no need to request permission in order to film there. 

RECCES - Pictures of Leake street and Waterloo tunnel by Iptihal

We have chosen to use Leake street due to the following reasons:

- The graffiti in Leake street allows the Afro Beats genre to be represented, as Afro Beat songs are known to reflect vibrancy, fun and liveliness, making Leake street a perfect location.

- I like the lighting in the area, as it is not dull, which is what we are trying to avoid. As you can see, the tunnel is lit up quite well, making it easier for us when we edit as there wont be much colour correcting having to be done.

- We also chose the location as it is not far and we can easily get there. 

- Since it is an open area, there is no permission required in order to film there.

The reasons we chose Olympic Park are:

- It allows us to get across the message that the main artist(s) is based in London

- The lighting is perfect in showing the vibrancy of Afro Beats

- The park is big, therefore allowing us to have a variety of different loctions and scenery's to shoot from

 

Risk Assessment by Jessie

Start on story boards

In class today me and my group started working on ideas of what we would like to see in our music videos, as well as what order of these idea's we would like to go with. After this discussion, we began to put together our story boards, so we have a visual idea of what our music video will look like. 

Our music video pitch

This is our music video pitch where we shared all our idea's for our music video with our class. We received a lot of positive and negative feedback on our music video. These are some of the constructive feedback that we took away with us and that we are going to consider when we continue editing:
- Our teacher advised us to keep the video simple since we want to make it performance based. She advised us to have a maximum of 5/6 dancers, otherwise it will look too much and will be hard to enjoy.
- Since we wanted to keep the people taking part in the video wearing casual clothing that are common to see in today's society, one of our class mates suggested that maybe we could add a hint of tradition in there by having a few shots of dancers dressed up in cultural clothing. since then, we have thought about maybe considering adding some traditional clothing in their, whether it be a scarf or dashiki's.

CASE STUDIES: Improved using teacher's feedback

Team meeting on music video ideas

Today in lesson we had to think about the different song ideas we can choose from. It was quite difficult due to our different ideas that we had thought of before coming together as a group. Luckily, we all have the same taste in music and we all pitched in our ideas and came to a conclusion. We have chosen the song 'Dance For Me - Eugy X Mr Eazi.' It is an Afro Beat song, and well known, making it easy to find people who are willing to participate in it, and people that would know the lyrics to it. Furthermore, it would be easy on our part to make a video on it since one of our team members is part of a dance enrichment, so she will be able to ask anyone if they are willing to take part in dancing within our music video.
