Way back in April / May time I got in contact with a singer songwriter called Charlotte Campbell from London and pondered the question would she like to make a music video with me. Obviously I wanted to use my quadcopter so asked about that to. I got a wonderfully positive response and we eventually set a date aside in June.
Due to restrictive schedules we only had one morning and afternoon to get it done. This meant really crossing our fingers regarding the weather as Charlotte had already booked a train and hotel. We decided to go for it and went all in.
On that morning I got up at 3:30am packed my kit, picked Charlotte up and raced the sunrise all the way to Bradgate Park. We parked up and made haste up the hill quickly unpacked and started filming. It was cold, still dark and we were both super tired. But we got on with it. The sunrise was out of this world and features on the opening seconds of this track. It really goes to show getting up early, making that effort really is worth it. I filmed a mixture of SLR and quadcopter footage as the morning went on until i had used all my batteries...though it was only about 7:30am still. We packed up and went to recharge everything in preparation for another wave of filming at another set of locations around the park.
We filmed alot that day and i probably have enough footage to make several music videos. Once the day was complete I sent Charlotte off back to London and the editing phase began. Little could prepare me for what was to follow, the lip syncing element to the editing was hard work, and i hadnt necessarily helped myself with how I had filmed. I stuck with it and sent over edit after edit to Charlotte who made suggestions and recommendations. After about a month of fiddling it was done. I sent it off and it has remained dormant until Charlotte was ready to release it.
I very much enjoyed this project, was great to get my teeth into, and would love to do more like it in the future.
I would like to dedicate this to my Dad (Larry) who loves actual harbours and all things maritime (not the metaphorical safe harbours in the song)
