Second Shoot Planning

For my second attempt at my cover photo shoot, I emailed the PR team for the band "The Darkness". After a conversation, I received an email to say I had been allocated a photo pass for the Bath gig. These photos will probably be very well suited as it is a professional band, and they are a rock band. I will take some of the band while they are preforming, and they will be under professional studio lighting.

From doing this, I have learnt that if you put in the effort, good things will happen. This is a very good opportunity to take some very good photos.

Just head to the guest list upon arrival Matthew, let them know your name, and they will issue you with a sticky photo pass which will get you into the pit for the first 3 songs.

Hi Tom,

Thank you very very much for this! It's much appreciated!

How will I show the staff that I have a photo pass?

Many thanks,

Hi Matthew

I've allocated you a photo pass for tomorrow's show in Bath, which will let you shoot the first 3 songs from the pit (no flash).

Band will be on stage at 9.15pm.

Any questions please let me know.

Thanks

Tom

Hello Gillian,

I have a Fujifilm S2980 bridge camera. It's not professional, but at the same time it's not a phone camera.

Thanks,
Matt

Hello,

I am going to the Darkness in Bath on Friday, and I was planning on taking some photos for my media A level. We have to make a music magazine, and I was planning on using the Darkness for my cover band. Would it be possible for me to take my camera in and take some photos?

Many thanks,

Matt Holden
