Location

 One of our locations is Swirlz, a milkshake shop nearby to us just outside of Enfield. We're using this location for our milkshake scene where the girl and Ken are sharing a milshake and gazing into eachothers eyes. This location is ideal as any props we need will be available as all we need is a milkshake and straws. The only issue there may be is the shop is a public place which may interfere with our filming but hopefully we will go at a quiet time of day so the shop will be empty. We feel using a milshake shop will fit in perfcetly with the quirkiness of our song and the lighting is quite bright which will also go well with the theme of our video. In order to use the shop we may have to contact the owners to gain permissiom to film, but hopefully we will be able to!


Another location we are hoping to use is Alexandra Palace skatepark, we like this location as it is bright and funky and as the pictures show from when I visited it is very urban and quirky which we feel fits in well with the theme of our video. The skatepark allows us to use resources such as ramps which we are hoping to feature by Ken skating in rollerskates. We hope to shoot it in light weather conditions as we feel it will show off the bright colours of the graffitti. If this location does not plan out we were hoping to use Southbank skate park as it too has an urban theme.
 A location we are also hoping to use is our local park in order to film the swing scene with Ken. As a park is a busy public place we would want to go when it is relatively quiet but also go with people still around in order to make the situation seem more realistic.There are weather restrictions on using a park as if the weather is bad it shows through the camera as it the back drop appears quite dark, hopefully we will film on a sunny day in order to portray the happy and quirky style of song.

A location we have already done some filming on and are hoping to do more on is Southbank. We want to film here in oredr to add the city elements to our London themed video. We would liked to film it amongst the general public to also make the situation seem more realistic, we may have to gain peoples permission to film if they may feature in it. We found filming at night effective as the image shows it adds to the city theme as it shows Londons nightlife, we may use a night shot like the image to the left shows and may show her walking along Southbank during the day.
