Shooting The Solo

We were lucky enough to arrive at school one day and find the school field with an untouched, good covering of snow. We took our chance and got out there right away to film the shots for the guitar solo. We wanted that kind of distant from reality effect for this which is often used in guitar solos in videos. An example would be I Believe In A Thing Called Love by The Darkness. We don't want to go quite as silly, but we did want the guitarist to be very isolated from anything so we managed to get a few shots with really deep focus fields which should work really well.

We also got loads of close ups the guitarist himself and both his picking hand and fretboard. All of which are used in many solos in videos. Harry filmed this part of the video and we are both very pleased with what we came up with and can only hope to manage to match the footage to the song!
