Dear sir/madam

My name is Harry Donald, I am currently studying A2 media studies at sixth form and have been given the task to create a music video.I am writing to request the usage of Jose Gonzalez’s song ‘Stay Alive’ in my self created music video.I chose to use this song as I believe it is well composed and allows an intriguing narrative. I shall claim no credit or ownership of the song as itshall go to Jose Gonzalez.

I would appreciate it if you could respond to this email informing me of permission to use the song in my coursework.

Yours sincerely,

Harry Donald

Risk Assessment

Rural locations: As a variety of my shots take place in woodland locations i must ensure my performers and I are being safe and responsible. This includes both looking after the things around us and ourselves. This is done through deliberating carefully where is safe to film. This can also be beneficial to the equipment. For example if a camera on a tripod is placed on uneven ground it will both get a wonky shot and be at risk of falling over.

Driving: Permission was taken before any shots were taken within the car owners vehicle so that the driver felt comfortable and wouldn’t risk an incident occurring.

Permission: when filming on private land, appropriate permission must be taken in order to film.
