CHANGING LOCATION

 MEDIA CLASS ROOM

I have changed my location of Bernice Hyde Hall to the media class room at Chislehurst School for Girls. I have decided to this as when filming with my actor at the Hall a couple of weeks I ago I struggled to find the correct lighting that I aimed to create. I used a basic domestic table lamp that produced a yellow/orange tones across my actor's face rather than a crisp white light which I initially wanted. At the location I realised I had a lack of facilities such as plug sockets which is a necessity in order to plug the lamp into, which only has a short lead attached to it. This meant I was restricted to certain areas of the hall which I found a great inconvenience in the easiness of filming and being unable to use all the space available. There was also no internet or computer in order to play my chosen song from so that my actor could lip-synch to the lyrics. This meant I had to play the song from my phone which was not of a good quality or volume.  Because of the issue of lighting and facilities I will not being filming at this location anymore, after the unsuccessful results of my test shots.Instead I am using the media class room due the convenient access I have to it, the equipment and facilities available. In the room, there are numerous professional softbox lights, tripods, cameras, computers and different coloured backdrops which I have complete access to whilst filming. This makes this location ideal to film my music video which should look professionally produced.
