Location - Adam Jones

- London Embankment: The reason why we have chose to use “Embankment” as a location for our music video is because of the fact that it shows various famous landmarks such as the London Eye and Houses of Parliament. The embankment is a relevant location for this part of the video due to the fact that it is a popular and busy area. It is also an effective location because it is part of the inner city London and is very popular amongst tourists but can also be seen as an unglamorous part of the city. This would therefore indicate that he is living in a major capital city.

House: the location of the house is appropriate in terms of our music due to the fact that the lyrics are based on love between the performers; therefore the location of the house represents the real-life scenario. Therefore the house location allows the audience to relate to the situation of the performers as it is in familiar surroundings.

Street/Park: Another location we will be using in our music video of Justin Timberlake’s “Last Night” is on a public street and public park. We chose to use this location for this music video due to the fact that the audience can also relate to this due to the fact that the setting will look familiar to where they live and also to what they see on a daily basis. The location is relative to the song/video due to the fact that the lyrics are very realistic and therefore the setting of a normal street and public park exaggerate the normality of the song’s lyrical narrative.

  1. TEACHER COMMENT: Your exploration into locations conveys the purpose and meaning behind each chosen location. Your use of major landmarks will draw in your target audience as a recognisable location.
