Planning: Planning the day of filming



These are some of the messages that were sent back and forth in order to plan the day of filming. I needed to organise the equipment that I would be using on the day as I was borrowing it from a friend. I also needed to tell the band members what to wear to the shoot and find dates that worked for everyone. I also had to send the link of song to the lead singer in order for him to learn the lyrics.




These are the outfits that I have planned out for the main narrative actress and the lead singer in my band. The outfit for the girl has to be very simple as I want the focus to be on her face and red hair. The outfit for my lead singer also has to be dark to add to the moody atmosphere. I want him to wear a dark plaid shirt and desert boots as this is a very popular indie look that won't draw too much attention away from his face and his singing. I also included a joy division shirt which is an intertextual reference to a band that palace may be seen to be influenced by or like.



Location 

I have chosen three locations for the filming during the day. The main two locations are the pool and the forest. The third location is the dump. I am planning to film the scenes in the forest first and then walk over to the dump and film there. Finally, I will film the scenes shot in and around the pool as the actress will need to get in the pool and so will get wet doing these.

The pool and dump are located on my friends land in Dullingham, Newmarket. Here is an image of the location from google maps.









The other location is Dullingham forest which is a short walk from my friends land. Here is an image of this from google maps
