Main Task - Artist Correspondence

We managed to find Littlewing through a friend, and due to the fact they have a Facebook page for the band, it was very easy to make initial contact with them. We made most of the correspondence with the lead singer Annie, who was then able to contact the other members of the band for us. 
They were very willing to help us with creating a music video. I think was particularly because they are an independent, so it would be very useful to them to have a music video created for free.
They had a lot of faith in us by letting us create a music video for their song, as they had to trust that we would make a music video that they could use themselves.
Obviously, we had hoped for the band to feature in the music video, and having asked them, they seemed more than happy to.

Following this initial contact, Annie forwarded the message onto the rest of the band to make sure they would be up for it, and thankfully they were. It was so useful to be able to work with the band directly, due to the fact they themselves had written the song, so if they had ideas for the music video they were able to tell us.

It seemed like it had been plain sailing organising what the music video would be like with the band. However we encountered one issue; trying to find a date to film. We realised that it was near impossible to find a date that 5 people from 2 different locations could do. Eventually, we found a date that the band and my partner could do, but I was unable to get time off work to help. Although I was disappointed that I would be there for production, it was the only day that all the band could do, so I entrusted my partner to complete the shoot for me.
