Location and Setting

We have chosen to film our music video around the area of Brentwood; we have chosen this location based on the reason that the area has all of the resources that we need, in terms of mise-en-scene. For one of the scenes we are able to access a podium, at a Go-kart track, which will be used to film the scene where he wins an award. We felt that this was appropriate as it gives the viewer the idea of him being a winner. We have decided to shoot the main part of our film down a straight road with small terrace houses on one side to give the idea of him being a simple character; it also gives impression of him being isolated. We also may use a betting shop as part of our video as the song features the lyrics “if i had a coin for every time we could be millionaires” the use of the betting shop shows a link to the “coin” and reflects the luck of the character. In our locations etc. We hope to get across the persona of the character and the type of person he is. We want the character to come across as an ordinary character who just lives an ordinary life.
