Preperation

On the 14th of October a production designer (Paul Cripps) came into my school for a talk on production design and to help make our non budget music videos more achievable. For example, we wanted to capture a fire in our video but this could be problematic because it is dangerous and hard to do. He gave use the idea of using smoke machines and a portable barbeque tray to light a small fire on. We also wanted to shoot in a public protest in our music video. We didn't want to stand out with our cameras so he gave use the idea of using hand held cameras in a cramped place then get a couple of friends crowd round our characters in a different place to make it easier to film. this would still look like our characters are in the protest without actually being there.
