Location

We then looked into location we decided on going to Stamford as it was easier to commute there as its not far from Bourne and we did not want to set in Bourne as it is familiar to us and others , this then would take quality away from are promotional video.

we used stamford as its looks very vintage and we thought that would follow the conventions of many indie promotional videos. also the surroundings of stamfrod are very old so we thought it would suit the the tempo and mood of our song.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Reserching into loations in stamford we found many places where we thought would be ideal to shoot at the places above is where we planned to do are filming as the green has 2 nice bridges which would go well with "i am leaving this town" and there a few park benches amongst the green which we thought would go well with the narrative

 

By choosing stamford which is rural town we have not followed the indie genre as there promotional video are usually set in an urban envirioment so we are going against the typical conventions of an indie promotional video.

 

In mumfords and sons baabel they also go against the typical conventions indie music videos by setting the video in rural rustic town similiar to are choice of stamfor this is why we thought it would be ideal

In cold play promotional video the scientist, chris martin walkes throught an urban built up enviroment where this is typical to indie genre are those locations.

Also stamford has a recrational area which was ideal for music video as it fit in with the genre because in some indie video they preform in fields of areas which are bleak such as in the one republic videos the good life
