Storyboard

I created a rough storyboard to highlight the different sections in my Music video. This will help me to plan my shooting schedule and plan.

Shooting plan

This is simple shooting plan of my when, where and what I will need to film certain aspects when filming my music video. This help me to stay organised when filming to keep me to my time frame.

Initial ideas

Initial Concept

Basic idea: section 1) Footage of a band practising, recording and performing ( ideally a male band to represent the original band) section 2) When the pace of the song speeds up or when it repeats itself, flashbacks and memory's are shown ( clips at a beach, funfair, party's, going out etc.) section 3) The sense of moment to go with the motion of the music clip, the band or an individual travelling this could ether be on a bike, a train, driving, skateboarding. The character could be going to practise or recording perhaps. Especially with the memory section or for even the whole video I wish to include a filter to make the film look older, creating a nostalgic, lost summers feeling and atmosphere to the clip. Ideally this filter would work well for the memory's section of the video to highlight that the footage is a flashback, rather than the present time. Within this concept idea I took inspiration from the filters used in “ submarine” as the film aesthetics achieve the nostalgic, 70’s film effect. I plan to look at the different filters that are available on adobe premier pro when editing my clips or other programs and effects to achieve this retro- effect. The concept of how the three sections are played one after the other repeatedly, for instance footage of the band, memory's and then the motion scene would play small sections and then cut then move onto the next section but would be a constant cycle throughout the song.

How and why do genres use share codes and characterises?

New music video "the Cads, Skin"

when looking at my concept idea of memory's, I realised in order for the concept to work that the song for my music video needs to contain repetition, or almost a loop which features through the clip, which ether speeds up or is continuous. so that the idea and aspect of memory would be played throughout this section.I feel as if my song choice at the moment " Yin" by the Nocturnes is almost to slow and does not have this idea of repetition or a loop, therefore would be tricky and harder to achieve the concept that I want to. Therefore I have found a new track " skin" by the cads, I personally feel that this song is much more suitable for my concept and plan, the up beat music and repetition fits well with my audience of young people as well.
