Locations for filming + Ed Lovelace

We have been having a dilema for where we could have our set. at first we thought we could have a room in a friends house that we could use, but then we thought the UV paint may damage the room. after a lot of thought we decided to think of somewhere, such as a shed or barn where we could make a mess.

Suggestions
Shed
deserted house
feild
kids play pak
public areas
garages



Ed Lovelace Talk In The Hall

Ed Lovelace is an ex Long road student who studied media. He kindly came in to talk to us about the music video industry. He has worked on smaller bands music videos and has progressed on to bigger budget and bigger band videos. for example he directed the gallows first video with only £100 budget and then went on to create two videos for the band Cage the elephant for £40,000 each. He is hoping to break into the film industry with his documentay/film called Werewolves across America but the film distribution is at a standstill because he needs clearance from the artist he was following in the documentary.
There is three main jobs when directing a music video, Director of photography, art director and cinematography. Each video has a set amount of time for each job to be done. The pitch takes three days, planning is one week, filming is one day and editing is three days making the whole process a two week project.
Certain parts of the footage in filming need to be changed, for example you can use colour correction to make the film look how ever you want it to such as changing atmosphere or the brightness of the shot.
