This is the underpass where we filmed the performance shots for our music video. We decided this was the best location as it has graffitti all over the walls which create a punk rock atmoshpere which would greatly improve the quality of our music video.
We also filmed at the Rare Cow, Writtle, where we shot all of our narrative shots. We decided on this location as it was closed on the day we were planning on filming so we were able to film in the place with no interruptions from the public. It also had a very dark naturalistic lighting which is a generic convention of the punk rock genre. At the location, all of the essential props necessary for the scenes were already set up so when we arrived at the location we could easily shoot all of the scenes and leave without wasting too much time. The bar at the location fitted in with the story of the music video as one shot is of the male lead ordering a drink at the bar and walking to his table. This was extremely beneficial to our piece as it meant that we had less work to do in finding and securing the props needed for this scene. The fact that this was a working bar, lead an authenticity to our music video that would not have been achieved if we had mocked up our own version of this scene. It looked very real and professional as it was shot in a realistic location.-Peter Godwin-
