This is a balcony of a mannor house, which looks out over a rural area (fields, forestry etc.) I felt this would create a personal feel, but still involve open space and freedom. I could get a wide variety of shots using the different levels that this would offer me: e.g. stood on the wall, from below the balcony, looking down on the balcony from the upstairs windows etc. The trees that surround the area could represent the obstacles and challenges that Kendall faces before being able to break through..
Weaknesses - The balcony was big, and made Kendall look a bit insignificant.. It would therefore be hard to show him breaking through towards the end of the song..
This is a Ski Resort in Austria -
The reason I felt this could be a potential location spot - was because it has a large depth of field, and this would help me to show Kendall's deep thought and confusion between his heart and his mind. A weakness of this location is that it is such a beautiful place and this may take away the focus on Kendall and make the music video seem to happy rather than showing thought.
Fields with a single track road though the middle -
There are many locations around Oxfordshire where I could have a location simular to this one. I think this would be effective because:
- I can get a large depth of field, showing the whole world is at his feet.
- The single track road is significant as it represents a one way direction - Kendall can only make one decision and go in one direction.
- The fields represent freedom, and this is significant as it shows he is in control of his own decisions.
- It's slightly quirky and random, which goes with Kendall's independent style. This will create a stronger impact on the audience as the imagery and vocals will compliment each other and work together. I think this is significant because it will make the music video more powerful as the imagery will make vocals stronger and exaggerated, which will create more of an impact to the audience and allow them to relate to the song.
- It will create thought and emphasise emotions within the frame, which will draw the audience in.
After analysing three very different location spots, it has become very clear to me that I will find a location with a single track road and fields either side. I feel this is the most appropriate location style for the music video 'person inside'.
