Journal - Location Shots

Over the weekend, we went to Winter Wonderland for location scouting. Our feedback suggested that we use Winter Wonderland as the primary location for our music video because it is essentially a fairground, yet we wanted to check it would be appropriate. The Christmas theme is something that we are concerned about; we want our music video to look like a funfair, as opposed to something festive and limited to Christmas only.

I definitely think that there are elements that we could use for our shoot;  for example, the ferris wheel and funhouse could be key locations in our music video but we would have to be careful to avoid including Christmas themed things in the shot.

Filming at Winter Wonderland means that we will have to consider weather conditions when filming, though this will be a obstacle no matter where we film if it is outside. We may have to consider permit issues also. As a tourist/seasonal location, it may be difficult to film there due to the overwhelming amount of people. Another issue is expenses. For these reasons, we have decided not to use Winter Wonderland as a location for our music video.
