Venue Changes

Venue Changes
Although we were originally, and throughout the whole research we were thinking of Lock 42, in the last few hours before we were meant to be filming we faced a lot of problems. When enquiring about Lock 42, we were told that it would be fine to hire out the venue and just ring a few days before. However we did this, and we were told that are a lot of items in storage so we should check whether it would be possible, but we were told there isn't a lot of room at all.

As I (Alex Rhodes) was in town this day, I went to enquire about the possibility of using The Cookie Jar. This then became our chosen venue as we had it all sorted with the owner and they allocated us a time from 11-2 which would have been enough time to film a higher quality video. However, we received an email the day before we were meant to film (we were meant to film on Friday 25th October) saying that it wasn't going to be possible (the image below).

This lead to us making calls all day on the Thursday to try and sort another venue out. The only other one we felt met our requirements was The Soundhouse in Leicester, however this didn't have a backstage which is what we needed, and therefore we need to go somewhere else to get the backstage shots.
