Location List

When deciding on locations to film our music video, we decided to make sure that all the locations where accesible at college.

  • Disabled bathroom - Upstairs in the Oak building
  • For the calendar scene we will need a plain wall to stick the calendar to
  • For the bedroom scene, we used the green room and put pillows and white sheets on the floor. By using the green room we ensured that we had good lighting and it was available to use when we needed it. 
  • Towards the back of the library they are small rooms that are able to be booked. In these rooms there is several office equipment that would be useful to use when replicating the music video. 
  • the final shooting will be in behind the theatre in the rooms in the Oak building. These rooms will be readily set up and available when we need them. 

Lyrics

As we have decided to replicate the first 60 seconds of the music video, we cannot use the lyrics to the song as they have not begun yet. However within the 60 seconds, diegetic sound of the women speaking is played.

Main character: I think I hate my life
Friend: Is it because you gained weight?
Main character: Excuse me?
Friend: (shows her the magazine)This article....helped me a lot
Main character: I....haven't gained any weight
Friend: You should probably just have my salad instead
Main character: You should probably eat a ****
Friend: *exaggerated chewing noises*

Props needed within the bathroom scene-
  • Toothbrush (provided by Alex)
  • Toothpaste (provided by Alex)
  • Green T-shirt (provided by Alex)

For this scene, our group needs a bathroom set up, for this reason we have decided to use the college bathroom facilities upstairs within the Oak building.

  • Telephone
  • Files/paper/books (provided by all of the group)
  • Computer
  • Picture frame (print out a picture)
  • Black jacket (provided by Alex)

We have decided to film this scene within the rooms towards the back of the library because the scene is already set up and within the room there is already props available to use such as the telephone and computer etc.
Calender Scene-
  • Calender (printed out)
  • Red pen (provided by college)
For this scene we have decided to use any location as the shots used are extreme close ups so the background would not be visible.
Bedroom Scene-
  • Alarm clock (provided by Emily)
  • Pillow (Drama rooms? )
Eating scene-
  • Salad (purchased from canteen)
  • Chicken and chips (purchased from canteen)
  • Drinks (purchased from canteen)

For the eating scene, we have decided to film the video behind the theatre in the room Oak 2 within the college. We have decided to use this location as the rooms here will be free and quiet to use.
