Casting first draft ideas





First draft idea's of storyline




I was hesitant when having the initial idea of filming in Trafalgar Square as it is a busy location with tourists and being in Central London. But I think it would be a perfect location for most of my filming as the song is recalling a memory and so it should be a memorable place which Trafalgar Square is. I will need to get permission to film in the park and cafe I want to film close up and showing the relationship between characters in my video which I think should be fine to get hold of. It is a local park and I won’t be filming children so gaining permission I doubt will cause any problems. And I know the owners of the cafe I need to use, so it shouldn’t be a problem for them.

Depending on how my planning for my video goes the location and storyline may change but for now this is what I am aiming for as I think it will be the most effective with the music.


Ben Howard- London lyrics and annotations

I think it is important to keep referring back to this page as this was my initial reaction when first reading/listening to this song. This could be similar to other audiences initial reaction so by referring back to it every so often it keeps my ideas grounded and believable to the audience. By doing this exercise I think I have a better understanding of what Ben Howard is singing about. I can now use this in my video as it will have a better link.
