Getting involved with musicians in and around Newcastle will be easy, however I've just started asking friends if they can help me out by performing a couple of songs which I can film. I made a professional set up in my living room, with a quirky and relaxed atmosphere.
I'm hoping after university to get my own studio and equipment that I can make into a professional area in which musicians come and record short live performances. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of the set up, purchasing two wooden chairs to create the look that I felt my videos needed. The setting up of the camera and the tripod took a lot longer than anticipated as I'd never experienced the university equipment before. However I feel much more confident with setting up the performance space next Wednesday for filming with Fiona Clayton.
