storyboard

This is the storyboard we have created on paper, this storyboard shows each stage of filming so we can clearly see what shots we need to consider when filming for our music video, from this we have been able to consider appropriate locations and props we need to include and it has given us a clear idea of how many shots we need to use.

Storyboarding



We have created a rough idea of what our video will look like with this storyboard. The storyboard was created on IMovie which we found easy to use.
The timing however is not matched perfectly with the music, and the lyrics need to be matched better to the action of the female artist. We are aware that the cuts/camera shots are probably too long for this 'dance' video so they need to be modified so they fit with the music. This is something we need to consider and put right before the filming takes place.
Each Post it pad is numbered so the order of each cut is clear and when it comes to filming we will be able to have our numbered storyboard in-front of us and refer to the shot we want via the number on the post it.

Filming locations

 This is where most of the outside filming will take place. We will be using artificial lighting because the filming will take place at night.  
  This is the room where most of the 'daning' shots will take place. We will also set up the Dj and have the party people in this room.

Pitch to class



One of the main concerns with our media video was the lighting. Some of our shots will take place in the dark therefore we will need to use artificial lighting. To solve the lighting issue we have a flood light that we can use for the exterior shots as well as disco lights for the interior shots of the party.

Another issue raised during our pitch was the concern that we will need a lot of people to make our ‘Project x’ Party scene look realistic. We will aim to resolve this problem by having approximately twenty people organised in a small area to create the illusion that there are 100+ people there. 

Before filming, we also have to think about the props we use e.g dj mixing board. As well as this the style of the band is crucial and so is the style of the people in the party. We want them to represent our target audience/ audience profile.

analysing 3 different videos



Analysing Rita Ora-How we do… music-dance/pop, lyrics use words such as ‘party’ and ‘drunk’ and are represented In the video with the fun energetic atmosphere, this also works with the dance beat. There are a few solo shots of the artist dancing and singing, the video would be either in the illustration or amplification category.
