Location/mood shooting in Brick Lane

Hey, these are the photos i took on monday in brick lane. I tried to take location photos but also photos that captured the mood of our song and music video. There were a lot of photos though so i mainly just uploaded the locations and may upload some of the others in another post later.


These stairs are just up the side of a building that you can climb up and leed to flats which we could film him running up or down.


This is the view from the top of the stairs down to the street below that we could use to get some good high angle shots.


You can climn over a wall to get into this area and by filming from the inside close to the bars we good get some good shots of the street on the other side (or vice versa).


This is a little side street that carries on much the same as it goes down. The teeth graffitti on the right of the shot are quite cool too.


Lots of shops in the area have big graffittied letters in different colours like this, we would have to check first but perhaps we could include shots of mike running past these in the order a s t h e n i a to spell out the song name. We wouldnt have these shots straight after eachother but interwined with other shots.


This is a part of a housing esate that you can walk into and there are some good places we could film inside.


This alley and bins might be good to film from or through.


This archway and railings looked good off down a side road.




Although this looks fairly busy, if we got there as the market traders were setting up or closing down (as they are in the shot) the boxes etc. create the illusion of business but without the people there they make it look very empty.

EDIT:
After our test shoot weekend in which we filmed in canary wharf we realised that as our best time (for practicality) is to film at the weekend we should film in areas that are busy for business (but ampty at the weekend) rather than places like brick lane (that are always fairly busy and dominated by the market at the weekend). As we found out by looking at previous latymer music videos, real music videos and by doing work in class however we realise that it is possible to film in multiple locations as if they are next to each other and so it is our plan to film in canary wharf, some small side streets (possibly in brick lane) and maybe around liverpool st. or bank.
