Originally, we had planned to film the character running across a bridge, however, it was too dark to be able to see me clearly. The darkness also led to us compromising another shot - a reflection of the character's face in the river, instead we decided to film just the water as we liked the coloured lights that were being reflected.
We found this really beautiful location under the bridge by the river (above), the colour palette is in keeping with the colours that we used in our studio location where we shone blue, orange and yellow lights against a black background. I think that this will help to make our music video look more professional as there is a level of consistency, it also will help tie our video together as there will be recurring elements.
We managed to film the other shots that we needed, like me walking past and singing by the river. We also found other interesting locations that inspired us to film impromptu shots, for example, close up shots of a clock on the side of a building, a panning shot of a bridge with writing saying 'Camden Lock' as well as close ups of interesting patterns, all of which could be used in our music video to capture the atmosphere of Camden. We also saw this graffiti on a wooden door (below), I really like the contrasting textures of the peeling paint, old wooden door and brick wall as this creates an exciting visual.
Here is our vlog from the shoot:
