The idea of using a car park in our music video was one we had from the start. This was meant to be a location that came in the video straight before the train station sequence. This gave the idea that the character has ran through a car park towards the train station to get away from the nun. After a discussion with Brad we decided that it would be better if we have the car park sequence after the train station sequence because it shows that he has come from a location that no one knows. This location was ideal because of a few factors.
The first factor is the fact that the car park we are using is big and is used by a lot of car owners. This allowed us to get across the idea that the character is living in a normal life were it is busy and congested. This was a good factor because we didn’t want to make it seem like no one is around seeing as the shots we have used before and after this made it seem like there was no one else around which isn’t what we wanted throughout the whole music video. The second factor that was good about this location was the efficiency of filming in the car park because of the closeness to our school. It was about a 10 minute drive which meant that it was easy to go back and film in case we didn’t get all the shots we wanted.
Overall the location provided us with a good time space of footage. We managed to get around 20 seconds worth of film in the car park, but still managed to create a fast paced beat to the cuts.
