Location
There will be a number of different locations present in my music video, adding variety and keeping it interesting. The location at the beginning of the video will be held in a bedroom, it will be messy and portray a typical teenagers bedroom, especially the morning after the night before, with bottles,clothes and shoes all over the floor. This imediately relating to our target audience.
We decided to base some of our video in London, to achieve a busy and buzzing atmoshphere, making the video interesting and full of live all the way through. We will be shooting in Carnaby street, along the cobbled floor and amongst the rushing public in order to create the effect we are lookng for in our video. In carnaby street also, we will be filming in a big office, this acting as our characters' workplace. Another location in London being Trafalgar Square, this we are keen to use because of the bright lights at night, we wanted to include as much colour as possible in our video and attract the audiences attention; by using Trafalgar Square we are able to make the location more lively atmosphere and create a more exciting location for the viewers. For the chorus of the song, we have planned to shoot in a club, again a very lively atmosphere matching the songs beat.
Each of our locations we believe will work nicely together and compliment eachother, creating our final video.
Character
We are going to include a number of characters in our video, as our friends have volunteered to appear in it. We are aiming to have four characters, but two mainly being the centre of the video. The research i had earlier done helped me to get a rough idea of how i would like to portray my characters throughout the video, what type of personality they will portray also.
I have spoken before about how i am aiming to make my music video as interesting as i possibly can, not only have we planned costumes and props for the characters, but we are aiming to follow a storyline, we thought this was appropriate to the song and that also people may be able to relate to the storyline, making them appreciate the video we have produced.
We are going to have two main characters in the video, two lovers, allowing the video to feature around them and their time in 'vegas'. Our storyline is mostly about the couples time in vegas, how they had it all when they arrived, living for the moment, and then how they lost it all. We are begining to rehearse and have already spoken about acting techniques, and how to go about filming with each other on a professional level. We have also begun practising some of the techniques we are going to be using whilst acting together in order to gain a better quality final piece and getting used to working together to make it look as realistic as possible.
Mise en scene
As a group we have all begun thinking seriously about everything we need to include in our video to make it work, the props, costumes, how many actors, what we need to have to match our song genre of pop, and also consider the different lighting we are going to be working with throughout the video, as we cannot determined the whether or how the camera will react to superficial lighting also.
Through thinking carefully about these aspects we are able to start heading towards making our video; we have decided to use props that are found in everyday life, normal accessories such as handbags, coats and items such as these. We are dressing them in fashionable and up to date clothing, that is very loud and bright in order to stand out, grabbing the audiences attention, appealing to teenagers everywhere. Seeing as people our age can now relate to the way we are dressed in our video, we now can use this alongside our lively location, and produce something brilliant.

Concerning the lighting, whilst filming in London, and in any outside areas towards the evening, we will be equipped with a large spotlight which we will carry around with as alongside the tripod and video camera. This will enable us to receive a brighter appearance of what we will be filming, being prepared for this is important as it starts to get dark early.
I am happy in beginning to film our video as i feel i am prepared enough and confident we have considered everything we need beforehand.
