Meeting - Discuss the 'Journey to work' Scene (22nd December)


Today we (Lewis and Daniel as Billy was unfortunately still ill) decided to meet up for breakfast at a local cafe where we could discuss the next scene on the agenda being the journey to work for the main character. The important topic in the discussion was where were we going to film this scene as this wouldn't be as easy to find. As the main priority was where we would find such a place with what we were looking for we decided to narrow down places we could film this. Then it hit us, that we needed a place with a prestigious and corporate environment, this being Canary Wharf, the Isle of Dogs.
Canary Wharf would help us capture a corporate vibe where everyone are dressed smart in suits and pencil skirts. As well as the people, the architecture that would be captured within the shot would give that extra corporate feel and would establish the scene which in turn should help make sense to the audience by helping them understand what is happening during the narrative. This being a day-to-day routine.
We also discussed what could be dubbed as repetitive which we could infuse in with our music video to keep consistency among the repetitive theme of the song.
Two main repetitive things came to mind these being revolving doors and escaltors which can be easily accessed in Canary Wharf.

We also discussed how we could show the main character going to work, our first thought being transport. We thought that as we have easy access to the London Underground (Public Transport) from where we lived so we thought we should use this to our advantage and capture this footage at Woodford Station in Woodford Green. This would only be a mere establishing shot to give a clear understanding to the audience of the narrative.
