We began planning our storyboard for our music video. This is the major part during the production of our music video as from here, we will know what shots to take when and where. This storyboard will be a part of our pitch, in which we are building up as a group to present to the class after the halfterm. I was illustrating roughly each frame in our storyboard while Megan was re-playing the songs and listenting to the lyrics so that she could tell us all what each verse was about. Aaron and Hayely here were sharing there ideas of what shots to take.
The rough sketches i did of the different shots all connote a meaning by reflecting the characters emotions or the lyrics. We all agreed on keeping the idea of shooting the whole music video in black and white as we feel it amplifies the whole concept. The music video will not be completely in monochrome as we will have some parts showing colours.
As the song begins with the introduction of instrumental we will take a wide shot of the ballet dancer on the floor with her back to the camera. The camera will then later on pan round to her face which will lead to a close-up. This pan movement we do will be crossing the line disorientating the viewer and making the scene odd reflecting the characters feelings and emotions. There will then be a cutaway of the artist Isabel Beau singing. This resonates on one of Goodwin's convention as the demands of the record label will be fulfilled by the artist being shown and presented to the audience initially being advertised.
We will experiment with shooting hand-held and using a tripod so that we know where its best to use these techniques when filming. There will also be a range of shots taken so that when it comes down to editing we have lots of clips to choose from.
Throughout our music video there will be a range of cuts between the scenes of the narrative and the artist. This music video will tell the narrative of the bad times, in her family, the artist has been through and how she overcame this rough time. The music video will consist of a lot of short takes and close-ups to make the video snappy and interesting and to show the emotions of the character.
