Location

Bedroom: We plan to use the bedroom as an introduction to our music video. This will initially set the scene, introduce the song, band and narrative. The audience will see the girls having fun in the bedroom doing lots of girly stuff, for example getting dressed, dancing, laying on the bed with the laptop etc. This will also help our target audience relate to the band as the protagonist will be stereotypically portraying teenage females on a normal day doing day to day activities.


Front room: Instead of the bed room we could also use the front room/living room to show what the characters are up to as both locations show a relaxed environment which not only teenagers but all ages can identify with.



The Multifunctional hall: In our school we have the multifunctional hall which is often used for drama performances with stairs that invert into a wall, a stage, a lighting box plus many props. This can be used for our blind date scene. We can use lots of different lighting via the lighting box and create a divider between the girls and the boy characters on the blind date show. We could also create a false audience with the ascending seats on the opposite side. There are many curtains and backdrops and even use a cyclorama.

Fun/fair: An idea here could be to watch the male protagonist play football whilst the female protagonists stalk the male or two girls spy on the male protagonist on a date with one of the three main girls. The reason for this location would be that it is easy as there are many parks around our areas, there are mostly isolated which would be an advantage. A funfair is also optional if there is one available as it would have a different atmosphere, again the audience would be able to identify with this location.

TV Studio: We could use our TV studio for any lip-syncing solo's. Also an idea could be if we decided to try and imitate a cinema effect. Within the TV studio the lights can be played with like the multifunctional hall. It is easily accessible, and the idea of the cinema again is the idea that teenagers in their spare time often go to the cinema. This shows my target audience are some what cultured and like to go out to be entertained.

Staircase: There is a staircase within my school that would look great to have a solo lip-syncing part be filmed there for a dramatic effect and also be apart of our performance.

Retail shop: Teenagers are known for being window shoppers, always in the latest trends and that is also the type of audience we are aiming for. This would be great to see the male and one of the females on a date shopping whilst the other two main female characters follow the couple on a date. This can be manipulated as the following females could pretend to be mannequins etc which will bring the element of comedy in play.
