Planning

Today we decided change our idea again because we did not like our idea as it wasn't really working and also due to scheduling with people. We changed the idea to instead of using our artist as the person having relationship troubles we are going to use my sister and me or my sister and her friend, showing them having relationship problems. We thought this would work as in the original video by John Newman he is isn't apart of the storyline within the video he is just a performer, which is what we are going to do. This will work better for us and help us to get the filming done quicker.

Schedule

Storyboard: 22nd November, this is when we plan to have our storyboard finished by. After the storyboard we will make an animatic to get a rough idea of our music video and the timing.

Filming: In two weeks we plan to start filming our video

Locations: We need to take pictures of our locations to ensure they match our music video. We will be using a kitchen, living room, park and drama hut. We need to make sure the actors are organised for the shooting days. Need to book the drama rooms for filming and the smoke machines.

Costumes:  Test pictures will be taken before the filming

Audience pitch: This will be done after the storyboard is finished but before we start filming.

In today's lesson we made a schedule of what we all needed to do in our groups. We discussed when we would have our storyboard finished and then when we would be able to start filming. We think we should be finished by then end of the week and then will start filming two weeks from now (week beginning 22nd). We also talked about costume and location.

Today in our lesson in our groups we were trying to find the song to make a music video for. We looked at songs by Passenger, Mumford and Sons, Jason Mraz and others. We established we wanted to work in the genre of pop and soul. We looked at many music videos to try and gain inspiration. We looked at the video Run the World by Beyonce, we were creatively inspired from the choreography and location.
