Set design for our music video
As we will not be using any specific set, only the outdoors, we will not be needing a set design. However, we are hoping to set up our band to perform their song at the top of Primrose Hill so we would therefore have the instruments set up on the top of the hill. This would include the drum kit, the microphone and the amplifiers for the guitars.

Lighting for my music video
We will be having natural outside lighting for our music video as we will be filming outside, and therefore, there is no need for bringing other forms of lighting outside. Natural lighting has been successfully used in many other music videos such as indie rock band The Verve's "Bitter Sweet Symphony", Kiesza's "Hideaway" and Supergrass' "Alright".

Props for shoot days
The only props that we will be using for our music video include two guitars with their two cases, a mic stand and mike, amplifiers, a drum kit and sticks and three pieces of lighting equipment, as most of the video will be using natural outside lighting.
We will be using:
Two amplifiers similar to this, however it will not cost any money as we are borrowing it from school
Drum sticks which we will also be borrowing from school.

Alongside a Yamaha drum kit also borrowed from the music department at our school.
Our bass guitarists own guitar case which looks like this

Our guitarists own guitar case which looks like this
As well as his very own guitar which looks like this
Therefore, as we will be borrowing all of this equipment, we will not need to spend any money renting or buying any of it, thus helping us to budget for the rest of our cohesive package.

Locations for my music video
We chose to film at the Barbican Centre as it is an attractive outdoor area and we feel that it shows off London really nicely.
We will also be filming around Southbank as it is a common place for Londoners to go so I think it is quite nice to show this hustle and bustle with time-lapse shots.
These houses by Primrose Hill would be perfect to film by as they are really authentic, attractive and colourful, conveying the band positively as they surround themselves with colour.
Again, Primrose Hill high street is a nice area in London and as it is a highstreet it shows how the band are just normal guys from normal areas who are very talented and want to share their music with the world.
We chose to have them run up a hill in the video to signify them chasing their dreams and Primrose Hill is perfect for this as it is a lovely, natural area and close to the Primrose high street.
