Location of Shots

 Live Shots/Garage Shots

We chose to film the majority of the video at live venues/gigs. This was because when we did our research we found out that typical punk videos are very low budget, and in most cases they feature the band playing performing live. The main reason why we chose to film in the garage was because it suited the genre perfectly. It looked run down and was very low budget.

Abandoned Hotel Shots
We found an abandoned hotel, the windows were smashed in and the building had been vandalised. We thought that the location fitted in so well with the punk genre that we decided to use it for out CD cover and magazine advert.

Bridge and Train Track Shots
An unused train track was a great place to film some lip syncing shots.



Storyboard Draft

This was one of our first storyboard drafts. It contains original ideas for the storyline of the music video. In the end we decided not to use any of these ideas. This was because in our research we found out that the majority of punk videos contained no storyline at all. As punk videos are very low budget, bands mainly record themselves live at gigs or just performing in general.
