Places to film our preliminary task.

We watched several different 60's video's to influence our ideas on what to do for Dusty Springfield's 'Spooky'. In some of Dusty's other videos she uses plain backdrops like flowers or trees etc. For ours we chose a retro style and went with a plain black backdrop with a single spotlight on the singer. We also decided to edit it adding sepia on to give it that crackling effect/ and older look to the video without actually damaging the footage. This works well with the era.
We just used a frame and a black sheet with a spotlight to film this and to get the look right, we filmed in school for convenience but in our real video we won't film in school as there are many things that complicate it like signs, classrooms etc. Here is an example of how our video should look after we have been through the editing process.
