Possible Pictures for Ancillary texts

I recently went to see the band whose song I am basing my music video on so I thought I could use some of the pictures that I took for my ancillary texts



Pictures of the Drumkit which I was hoping to use for the album cover and on the CD itself

I was hoping to use this one for the picture behind the CD itself

I was hoping to put this on the side of the album with the song list on it.

Current Video Idea

I am having to change my music video idea because the person who was supposed to playing my main character has a busy schedule so I wouldn't be able to get the time for all my cast to be together to be able to film the sections with her in it.

My original idea was that I was going have Alice having an argument with her boyfriend which results in him hitting her and when she falls into Wonderland the Mad Hatter and the Black Knight was supposed to represent the different sides of the boyfriend that she is now aware of. Also, the Red Queen was supposed to be the girl that the boyfriend has been cheating on Alice with which we find out later. At the end we see that her boyfriend tries to ring her to apologise and she deletes his number off her phone to give the impression that she doesn't want to be with him anymore.

However, due to having to change my story, my idea is still that Alice has an argument with her boyfriend and the Mad Hatter and Black Knight represent the different sides to the boyfriends personality however the Red Queen now represents the different side to Alice and how she has to overcome that part of her personality that depends on the boyfriend to do everything for her in order to turn into someone that is strong enough to break up with him. My video still has a dark theme around it because of the twist in the storyline.

Locations

Forest scene - Park near College
I have chosen this location because it is easily accessible, therefore enabling me to get more filming done during college time when the weather permits it. This changed to the forest near Humber Bridge

Field - Rugby field near College
I have chosen this location because it is remotely accessible, I am able to have my forest location in the background which I had initially planned and there are less likely to be people around to capture in the background because it is somewhat secluded. This changed to a field near the Humber Bridge

Execution room - Seating area in park near college
This location is different to my initial plan. However, when wandering through the park I came across it and thought it would be perfect because there is a seat where the Red Queen could sit and watch and a overturned log on which Alice could kneel to make it seem like she is on trial.

Bedroom - My Bedroom
I thought my bedroom would be the best place for the bedroom scenes. This is because my house is central for both cast members and includes all the aspects that I had initially planned. When I first planned it, I was hoping to use my original Alice's bedroom, but then we had to change cast and my bedroom was the closest in comparison.

Porch - My friend Rosie (Alice)'s porch
This was the best option for the porch because her porch leads straight to her staircase which made it more realistic when she turns to run up the stairs. Also her main doorway doesn't have much of a step up to the door, on which the boyfriend would fall down when he got pushed out if it within the beginning shots. However, this had to be changed due to unforeseen circumstances.

Queens' room - ?
I have yet to find a location that would be realistic enough to pass as a Queens' bedroom.

Concert room - Pastel Jack's practise area
Due to the fact that I am friends with the lead singer of Pastel Jack, he has said that they would be willing to let me into their practise room to film them performing the song.
