Location: Cardiff centre
Date: 15th of November
Today, we filmed in Winter Wonderland in Cardiff centre. We decided to film here as the multicoloured lights will serve to represent the colours of the LGBTQ+ flag. We wanted to incorporate the colours in this way as the times that my character spends with Jade's are the times that she is most herself.
As it is getting darker early now, we chose to film at 5pm. Filming at this time gave us the perfect lighting to ensure that the lights were able to stand out and ensured that our footage would be clear and not turn out grainy due to the bad lighting.
We chose to film here as we felt that throughout the piece, the contrast between coloured lights on a dark backgroud would play a large role in the symbolic aspect of our video. The contrast between the colours serves to represent this idea of my characters finding light in Jade during a complicated time in her life. It also mirrors the contrast in colours worn when my character is with Jade compared to when she is with Josh.
We decided to film a POV shot when Jade and my character are sat having a drink together in Winter Wonderland. We decided we wanted to include this shot as it would show the way that my character looks at and idolises Jade's character. It would help to show their relationship.
