Lighting

The location that the filming will be taking place will be both interior location and an outdoor location, this therefore means I have to be aware about the outdoor lighting so its suitable for my music video, for example, filming might be ready to take place and then finding out the weather is really cloudy which will lead the filming looking dull.



My main location where my filming is mostly going to be taking place is my house. The reason I choose my house is because firstly I have access to use the location, secondly the music video is going to be based on a families relationship so its right to use a family home as the main location.


Lighting can make a big difference to music videos as light can:
It can control the mood of the video (e.g.. bright lighting could connotate happiness).
It can make the viewer look in a certain direction and it can put emphasis on main elements of the video, for example an important prop or facial expression.

In order to make our video seem more professional we have decided to reshoot some of the shots in our video for example: the stop motion figures of Mat in the street due to the lighting not being bright enough.
