Location and Setting

Our group has decided that to work best with the style of the song, filming in a church would make for a fitting and unique setting. The song is slower than traditional rock songs and the cello and violin create a smoother sound than guitars that lends itself well to a church setting.

Also, lyrics such as 'Need something that I can confess', 'I'm gonna give all my secrets away' and 'Something to get off my chest' all lend themselves well to a church setting. These lyrics show how the song is about the singer confessing his secretsOur group is thinking of including the confession box from the church in the video to create a greater relationship between the visuals and the lyrics.

These photos are taken of a local church that is a possible candidate for a filming location. We have created an e-mail to send to various churches asking for permission to film which we will send when it is proof-read. I will post a screen-shot of that e-mail when we send it and any replies we get.

We also needed to make sure that the churches we asked would have the correct look for our video (ie We do not want to film in a modern church that doesn't have a holy or grand look about it. Churches made of stone and with stain-glass window(s) are what we are looking for.

There is however a problem with lighting in churches that will need to be adressed since churches are so dimmly lit.
