Today was our first of many visits to the Junction (a very popular cambridge music, theater and comedy venue). The visit was an introduction into the venue it's self and what we will be doing throughout the next 8 or so weeks.
When we arrived we were greeted by Simon (head of eductional links with the junction) and introduced to the rest of the staff. We were then given the grand tour and shown every room in the entire junction complex. starting off in J1, the main and original building. J1 is used for bands and big club nights. we then went into J2 which is a much smaller room and is used for theater and comedy nights and some smaller club nights, it also opens up for some of the big clubnights like Warning (which uses J1 J2 and upstairs). We were then taken upstairs and shown the 3rd room which is sometimes used as a practice room for some bands and often used as another arena for music on big club nights like Warning and Uprizing. We were then shown all the ofices etc and told about how the venue is run. We were also shown what is called J4 but actually known as J3 because there is no J3. This room is a studio space and used for band practices, dance workshops and other such things. This room is 10m by 20m and this is where i will be shooting my music video.
After the tour we discussed what each of us have planned, what we want to use the venue and what we wanted from the junction. For our video alex and i are making the most of whats on offer and using kirks green screen and shooting a live performance in the studio room and using the bar area for a few shots also.
