Lighting

One thing we have been thinking about during the storyboard process is that of lighting. We have planned to shoot our video in the darkness, as we feel that this would add the perfect effect, aswe also plan to use a firework in the video.


The problem is that we will need substantial lighting to make the band video and so they just not look like shadows. Or first idea was to bring 4 cars into the field and have them on full beam, something which we plan to test beforehand.


Our second option is to edit the video after filming in the day although this could be an issue with the skills we have and the limited to time.


Our third option was to just abandon the idea of filming in the dark and make it work in the day but this is something we will find out after doing a lighting test.




Above is a video by The Drums, for their hit single "Let's Go Surfing". At the time, The Drums were a fairly small band, so will have had quite a low budget, so we plan on taking some inspiration from this video.
