R&P 34: Location Research

Location Research

Possible locations for filming and album photography:

Green Park


 We looked at Green Park because not only is it visually pleasing but it is also an iconic park which may be recognisable with the audience.

Phoenix Gardens


Phoenix gardens are close to Green Park which is great for time management, although it is not as visually pleasing as Green Park we liked the unique nature and so decided we wanted to visit it and decide if we wanted to use it for filming.

Cannizzaro Park


Cannizzaro Park is one of the most aesthetically pleasing gardens in London, not only does it consist of interesting nature but it also has architecture which makes it one of a kind. Also the gardens are symmetrical which is a visually pleasing and conventional is many music videos.Image result for Cannizaro Park

Hyde Park

Hyde Park, located in central London is very much seen as an iconic landmark because of this it will be very busy which could be a problem. However it may be useful for the photography for the album cover as the people around could easily be photoshopped out so it is worth a visit as a possible location.


                                                                                                                                       

Tooting Common 

As seen from the image below tooting common is very visually pleasing and offers a good variety of possible places to record. Whether you are out in the open or tucked away amongst trees there is many ares which can mediate many atmosphere.

This post successfully outlines brief ideas for locations so that we could visit them and decide on final decisions.

This medium shot is our introduction to the artist and we are fulfilled with mystery as we can not see her face yet can here her singing. Also another key part of the video is Birdy performing the song which is an element which we feel will be essential to our music video.
