- 2. Locations- What was our location? The Location we decided on was a venue in London called Ministry of Sound. This location seemed ideal for us as we were familiar with the area (London), it was the right scenery for our music video (club) and the fees that we needed covering such as the entry fee for the venue and the travel being a train.
- 3. Locations – Access – hire? • Our location was a location that could be hired out or booked but we did not need to hire it out for just us as there was an event being held which we needed as there would be the right setting/background. E:g, clubbers, DJ’s, lights etc.
- 4. Locations - Recces • Location recces are filled out during the pre planning/production stage of your production. A location recce is done for every location you and your team attend to, so you can see the strengths or weaknesses about the location. It will also be filled with other details about the location.
- 5. Locations – Where is it? Was forecast an issue? • The location would be easy to get to as it is in London and there are many trains that lead from our living area’s to London. The weather forecast was not an issue for most of the filming as we was inside most of the night. We did take extra clothing for warmth in case the weather changed.
- 6. Locations - Limitations and risks? • There was some limitations and risks about our locations such as it being a busy environment and keeping together. Also communication with each other may be difficult as the music would be loud.
- 7. Locations – Limitations and risks? • Risks that we looked at such as: keeping each other and ourselves safe. Injury's or illness at the venue. Equipment being broken or lost.
- 8. Locations – Cost? • The location we had did not have a cost involving hiring it was only the entry fee for the venue that we had a fee for which was £25 entry plus any drinks we needed inside.
- 9. Materials? What materials did you use? Freesound.org enables you to download sounds to put over your music video. Such as audience noises.
- 10. Materials – What materials did you use? • This website enables you to download high quality images.
- 11. Materials – Props and costumes? • The props and costumes that I think would be ideal for our music video is a variety between a club costume and the indie look. • The props we would need include tables chairs glasses and drinks for the first location. • We do not props for our second location.
- 12. Materials – Props and Costumes • Finding costumes on websites that sell clothes.
- 13. Contributors- • We have different people involved in the production such as illustrators, specialists.
- 14. Contributors – Scream Video • The designer of the scream video named Tom Foden contributed in the scream video. He had previous experience of working with Madonna on ‘Bedtime Stories’ and other known celebrities.
- 15. Tom Foden - Designer • Tom Foden originally wanted to be a racecar driver until he was credited for a few productions involving music production with Madonna, Nine Inch Nails and Tarsem Singh’s.
- 16. Contributors – Our production would involve having a team of talent to take part in the production, camera crew, a producer, an editor and a director. We also might have public contributors that are also attending the venue that involve themselves in our production.
- 17. Codes of practice and regulations. • MCPS-PRS (Mechanical Copyright Protection Society) was orginally created in 1914 for the responsibility of collecting money for the live performances of artists/bands. • Considering we will be using a song over our music video we will need to research more about the Mechanical Copyright Protection Society in case we run into any issues with the copyright situation with using another artists song.
- 18. Location Permissions? As we have two locations we will need to get permission for both of them. We will need to get permission for our first location from the house owner and we will need to get permission from the owner of ‘Ministry of Sound’ or somebody who will be in charge on the night of the event. Also with location permissions we will need to think about our location area and potential risks for example: If we was to film in an area where somebody in the background would be on camera, we would need to get permission from them to use the footage they are involved in.
- 19. Legal (copyright, health and safety?) • Public liability insurance means we would be insured if any damages were made while we was at the venue. • Health and safety such as injury and illness would be each persons responasbility.
- 20. Ofcom? BBFC? • BBFC looks at the age ratings for an audience on a game, DVD or film (film can be short film, advertisement or films in theatres) • We will need to look at our production audience and check the material is suitable for the age rating it would be suitable for. • Ofcom’s responsibility is to offer a service to deal with TV and radio sectors, fixed line telecoms, mobiles and postal services. They follow the regulations put down by ‘Communications act’ of 2003 and set out to make sure the public is safe from scams.
- 21. Trade Unions? • PACT (producers alliance for cinema and television) represents the interests in adverts on UK television, children’s, film, digital and animation media companies. • They provide their members with support and help in what their rights are (producers for example)
- 22. Trade Unions? • Broadcasting Entertainment Cinamatorgraph and Theatre Union is put in place to give advice and help to their members. Helping them with pay negotiating and contracts with their employers, advice on health and safety, opportunities with networking events and and career development etc.
