Above are the photos taken from our shoot at our location in Crystal Palace park. After researching different parks and steps that we could use, as a group we felt that the Crystal Palace park steps were ideal for what we wanted to create. The idea for this scene was first instigated by the Rocky scene where he is running up the steps for training and it represents him getting to the top having been training for a while. We decided to shoot it very similar to the way Rocky shot the scene as it makes it an intertextual reference which is included in Andrew Goodwin's music video theory.The location that we chose was perfect as the steps were very wide which is important as it wouldn't look right with narrow steps.
However, when we arrived at the location we encountered some problems. Firstly, as we do not have access to the correct equipment we had to improvise for example when Rocky is running up the steps from a high angle it is from a very high vantage point and must have been a crane shot whereas we could only use a tripod. However, the scene was a success overall as we got all of it shot in one day and when edited it came together nicely and will look good in our music video.
