Filming Location

Dean and I had a hard time trying to decide where we would be filming at. There aren't a lot of places around to film a music video that are cool, and that work with our target audience, etc. We looked up cool abandoned places to film at during the start of this project, but when Dean reached out to any owners for permission, he came up empty as they didn't respond. 

Thankfully, he's been around quite a bit and spotted this abandoned home area in our county. Angelo, a friend who's also a filmer and is helping us with our project, went to this same location a while ago to do a project. He let us know that the place is blocked off with a gate, but other than that, there are no "No Trespassing" signs or anything else of that nature. The location doesn't even show up on maps with any information about what the structure was supposed to be. It can only be found through specific map coordinates. However, it's not totally secluded. 

Dean and a friend and I visited the location today and went inside. It was my first time seeing the structure up close, let alone setting a foot inside it. The place is entirely run down and abandoned, and there's a wasp problem in the back where there are overgrown bushes, but as long as we didn't go through the backyard they didn't bother us. 



The structure has several rooms, all broken down or deteriorated in some manner, but these are the largest (and cleanest?) rooms available. We're considering that these rooms are where most of the main story and band performance will take place.
