Filming Day - (30/10/13)

Our chosen venue as mentioned in previous posts by Alex is the 'Yellow Bean Studios'. We have had this venue secured for over a week, but we had not securely pencilled in a date and time until Monday. We had an advantage when it came to organising hours needed as Alex had already been involved in production for another groups video (this information can be viewed at the 'experience working on a music video post dated (9/1013). After a discussion we decided that a minimum of five hours would be necessary as the filming phase is a surprisingly longer than you would expect. We also came to the conclusion that a few added hours would be vital. These additional hours would allow arriving late to not hugely effect production, allow make up and costume to be thorough whilst also giving actors/band members breaks. Following the summary of our discussion we decided to get hold of our contact (Jono) who we have been sharing phone conversations with, and secure the hours necessary. We were able to secure a 9 to 5 slot for Wednesday (30/10/13).

The Studio Address is as follows ;

376 Western Road

Leicester, UK

LE3 OED

Again 'as mentioned by Alex in a previous post' we have been given access to a 26X15 ft studio with a white curved infinity wall studio area, a hi-glide, dressing room, seating area, WI-FI, kitchen, toilet and lighting. Our preproduction phase was completed before the date and times were confirmed. We completed an equipment list, storyboard and animatic. All of these making filming a lot easier.
