Venue Scouting

We decided to look into several different venues for our shoot in order to decide which was most suitable. The first venue we went to was Intake Scout Group Hall:


Venue 1

Intake (270th) Scout Group Hall - Venue for Hire

Intake Scout Group has a hall with stage available for hire, capacity 80 seated. The hall has a fully equipped kitchen and sound system. The hall hire is charged at £12 per hour (this price is supplied by the venue please check it yourself for accuracy). The scout hall is located in S12.

Service/Activity Details: Intake Scout Group Hall Old Methodist Church Mansfield Road Sheffield South Yorkshire S12 2AP  (View Map) Disabled Access Details: Wheelchair Accessible with Assistance; Wheelchair Accessible Toilet. We visited the hall to have a look around and to take some photographs.

We quite liked the venue, it was large and had a high roof so we wouldn't have to worry about the crane rig hitting the ceiling, a stage and a sound system to play the song. However, there wasn't a suitable enough space outside to film the car scene and it essentially didn't look like a genuine nursing home. After sending these images of the hall to our band we had a conversation and they decided it wouldn't be suitable for the video.

Venue 2

Chris said that alternatively, he could arrange for us to film in an actual nursing home. We followed him up on his offer and he visited the home the following week and sent us these images.

Knowle Hill

Streetfields, Halfway, Sheffield S20 4TB

We agreed that this venue would be perfect for our video shoot; it looked like an actual nursing home, provided most of the props and there was sufficient space to film outside. This is the venue we ultimately decided to film at.
