The setting I have chosen for the main location is a small practise space. Obviously due to its nature it looks the part however it is also important for me to dress the set so that I can squeeze out the maximum referencing/iconography/stylistic look to the space. Therefore I have chosen to decorate it with other miscellaneous musical equipment such as amps and guitars. Even if they aren't especially clearly pronounced their presence would still add to the believability behind the video concept.
Another technique I used to add to the mise-en-scène was by decorating sections of the wall with posters from old copies of NME. NME is a music mag that used to occasionally include photos of musicians. Obviously all bands draw influence from other musicians therefore it adds another reference point to the imagery in the band. Depending on the mood I choose to evoke the presence of shot of Keith Richards looking down may add to the realism.
