Mise-en scene
Our initial idea of the ladies of the late 1950's were women in frocks like the one above, so we asked Alex (who has now left the group but got to feature in the video) to bring in something which was similar to this and wear it in our video of her playing the character of Sue in the song 'Runaround Sue'. Another cast member for our music video chosen was Kirsty, who would be playing the man chasing the charachter of Sue in a field, dressed similar to the woman pictured in black and white above, to go for a different look which would take her away from looking like a woman as such. Once it came to hair, make up for our cast we used a look similar to the one of the woman pictured above, as she seemed the most suited to the era of the late 1950's.
Location
Before we could start off filming we had to establish a location which was open and easy to film in, we decided as it was our practice filming that we would film at the golf course behind our school as this was the most convenient area for our cast to use to run around in. An open field was the idea we were going for and the golf course seemed perfect for this.
Other ideas
Most music videos in the late 1950's were in black and white, so we have chosen to go along with having our music video in black and white also, to make it seem more realistic with the song and the 1950's era 'look' we are going for.
