As a group we decided that having a performance aspect of the video was very important, because The Vees are a new band and their musical identity needs to be established. We have decided that the location for this part of the music video should be shot in a derelict or abandoned place, because this reflects the song lyrics and fits in with Andrew Goodwin's theory on music video conventions. As the song is about how the girl doesn't care about the guy's (who is the speaker of the song) feelings and doesn't care about him at all, the song is about a break up, so a derelict house will reflect their broken relationship and an abandoned place will reflect how the girl abandoned the speaker of the song.
Over the course of the last few weeks we have been searching for suitable derelict houses. Sarah has been ringing a few people up to ask permission to use their land, I am checking out an old barn near where I live, however I don't think the building is stable or big enough. One of our class mates in our media class has informed us of an old barn near where she lives, and has said that she has permission to use that, so we're looking further into that.
We are hoping to go on a recce to some of the possible locations on Wednesday 19th January afternoon.
In finding our locations we are going to have to bare in mind the prospect of filling in a risk assessment. I have been advised to go onto the BBC website, who have a good risk assessment form. I will fill this out once the location has been decided.
