Filming Updates




Friday 7th November - Today was our first day of recording our music video. We recorded in a friends home today because we wanted to use an old style TV and arm chair for a couple of our shots and he agreed to let us film there. 

The shot to the right shows the protagonist and lead singer (Josh Brison)sat in a arm chair watching TV, which links with the lyrics "It's much easier for me, to stay at home with Richard and Judy".




The TV to the left is supposed to show footage of 'Richard and Judy', however it wasn't available at the time of filming so we've used this shot for the meantime.








Monday 10th November - Today we started shooting our band shots in the college studio. To begin with we took a few practice shots to get used to and become confident with the lip syncing. The practice shots are shown below.

After a five minute warm-up we then moved on to filming the actual clips for the video. At this stage we have only recorded the chorus and shots of the lead singer however we plan to film more in upcoming days.


Wednesday 12th November - Today we caught a train to Middlesbrough to record shots for the chorus to go with the lyrics 'Away from here'. 

The shots include a time lapse of the train arriving at the station, another of the protagonist boarding the train and another of some of the journey.


Today we also drove towards Peterlee via the A19 in order to record a time lapse of the traffic again to go with the lyrics 'Away from here'.

Mood Board


Mood board from RobsonBoyd

This is our mood board which shows the different ideas which we feel will make up our music video. We have included conventional things like the guitars and band picture so that we can stick to the convention of the genre. We have included the bar and alcohol because of the lyric 'Saturday is your only highlight when you go out and live the high life' which we interpreted as people drinking alcohol. 'I'm so sick sick sick and tired, of working just to be retired' to go with this lyric we have included the image of the stressed office worker. The image of the train has been used because at the end of the music video we plan to have a shot of the protagonist leaving on a train to go with the lyric 'Away from here'
