A-band-oned!

We now longer have a band to use! After much discussion with the band Forest, it's become clear that the band as a whole will not be available for filming over the next few weeks. We can get individual members to be available on certain days but unfortunately we need the whole band to be able to shoot this music video; a combination of exams, busy schedules and the run-up to the end of college have been to blame. We our only option now is to look for other bands who will be available to film. We only have a week and a few days to organize, film and edit a music video!

We've been looking for different bands that could fill the role. Holly began by looking at the "top 5 chart in Cambridge" through her work at a local radio station; this was a good place to look for aspiring bands who would be willing to preform in a music video. I wasn't there for it, but Holly found and contacted the local band 'Varsity' who were actually available to film on that night. Unfortunately, neither me more Dan were at college at the time and the other team members didn't have the necessary equipment to film them, therefore we let them go. We're running out of time and we're unlikely to be able to do anything special with this music video which is very disappointing and a bit disheartening for our group. 

As a last-ditch effort we went to the Long Road music department to ask if they had any idea if there were any bands there that would be willing to be part of a music video. They told us that the band 'Post' might be able to preform for us and that we should get in contact with them. Hopefully having a band literally next-door to us should prove to be easier.
