We have chosen to do some night filming in Piccadilly Gardens, Manchester. We have chosen this location because it is a busy well lit open space in Manchester with some great settings - water fountains, statues, grass areas and cafe's - it is a true hub for social life in Manchester. This vibrant setting is well suited to the video to provide a bigger atmosphere outside of the lonely situations featured in the bulk of the video and to show that there is a bigger world out there outside of their bad relationship.
We have also filmed some of the shots at an office building at the Manchester Science Park.
The facility allowed us to use the stairs and entrance hall to their building to shoot the scene where Madalina is in the lift and Laurie runs up the stairs to meet her at the floor she is destined to. We knew we could have filmed a shot like this in College but with the desire to not film any of our project in College, we sought access to this building which is only a 5-10 minute walk away and added to the separation and emotion of the music video and that the relationship is in tatters - she no longer wants to be with him and is trying to escape.
