That’s Logistics.

Location, location, location.

LOCATION UNO: EL HALL.

This is our school hall and its stage. We will be doing our performance element on that stage, if we get permission. Which we need to ask for. We chose it because performance elements are generally in a normal performance area, such as a stage.

LOCATION DOS: Hannah’s garage.

Hannah has a pretty garage conversion. In this location, we will film a scene between Hannah and Ben, watching a film and establishing them as a couple. This was originally going to be filmed in Hannah’s living room, but we had to have a switch up of locations.

LOCATION TRES: Hannah’s living room.We will be using Hannah’s living room to film the part of our video with me and Ben are arguing over a photo. This was going to be in my kitchen; however, my kitchen is far too small to manoeuvre in. We chose Hannah’s living room as a plan B because it’s larger, but also includes a large mirror so we can have a shot of Ben looking at himself in it to portray his ‘lad’ stereotype. This is also where I make the phone calls.

LOCATION CUATRO: Hannah’s kitchen.

We will use Hannah’s kitchen as a place for Livvy to be when she gets the ‘phone call’ that exposes Ben. We chose the kitchen because it’s a natural place for her to be whilst she’s at ‘home’.

Taken from test shots.

We will use Hannah’s conservatory as a place for her to receive the ‘phone call’ exposing Ben. We chose it because it has a nice sofa in it, so Hannah can lounge on it and read a book, without reusing any of our other locations.

LOCATION CINCO: Hannah’s conservatory.

Taken from test shots.

LOCATION SEIS: The Pavilion.

This is where we will film the photobooth shots. We chose the photobooth because showing the photos coming out of the tray establishes Ben playing the three girls quickly.

LOCATION SIETE: An alley. Not a dodgy one.

This is where we will film Ben checking out Jess. We chose this location because it is slightly out of the way (so we wouldn’t have to risk getting members of the public in our video and having to ask to use their face, but not obviously out of the way so it doesn’t look weird that Ben, Livvy and Jess are walking down it.

Actors aka our only friends.

The Machine Ate Florence.This is The Machine Ate Florence. We will be in the video. It consists of me, Hannah and Livvy. We chose to use me and Hannah because of practicality, and we basically roped Livvy into it because she’s one of our best friends. We chose to have 3 people it is typical of a girl band.

Livvy Me Hannah

The Guy. Ben is going to be the guy in the video that plays the girls. Me and Hannah have very few male friends that would be willing to do this for us so, thanks Ben. We asked him because he’s in our class so understands the commitment and because he’s confident, so he won’t mind being in front of the camera.This is Ben.

JESS.

Jess is in our video. We miss her. She walks past Ben when he is with Livvy, and he checks her out. We chose Jess because she was willing to help us, plus she knows Ben so it wouldn’t be awkward filming their bit together.Taken from test shots.

No, I’m kidding. Jess probably wouldn’t approve of me putting a picture of her here so here’s Castiel instead, aww.

Technology.

We wanted to use a fog machine to create this effect on the floor; however, probably not as much as this because we don’t want to create a full on fog-floor. This would happen during the quieter “daddy, I’ve fallen for a monster” near the end of the song, as we were going to have me standing in the hall on my own and it’s going to be emotional.

We will definitely, definitely, definitely need a tripod. We will obviously still set the shots up, but we will need a tripod for the performance shots especially. Seeing as me and Hannah are in the ‘band’, we will need something to hold the camera.

If there are any spare cameras lying about, that would be absolutely fabulous. This would save us having to refilm the performance shots lots of times, as we would have different angles from different cameras, and reduce the risk of continuity errors.

I am uncertain if we have a wind machine or anything. If we do, we’ll probably just put it on lightly (not so over the top that we fall over) during the performance sections of the video.

Costumes/clothing.

For our performance element, we are going to conform to conventions and dress up (think Girls Aloud or the actual video for Black Heart). I am unnatural at this so it will probably look terrible and I apologise in advance for my awkwardness. I can’t speak for the other two, but this is the kind of thing I’ll be wearing for that part of our video.

The rest of the video is set in everyday situations, so we’ll just be wearing casual clothing for this. Here is a picture of some of the casual things we might be wearing. These are girls’ clothes, but Ben will be in casual clothing as well. I just don’t own any guys’ clothes.
