10. List of Props, Costumes, Make-Up

Prop and Costume List

Here is a List of my props and costumes that I am going to use in my music video. As you can see from the sheet there is no make up needed. I also say which location each item will be needed in. When we come to filming I can look at this document and see where I will need the costumes and props for. This makes it a lot easier for me as I don't have to look through lots of paper work or try and remember the information it is clear and simple to read on this one document. 

18.Track Permission

Here is a email that my group and I have sent to Atlantic Records to ask permission if we can use their artist Ed Sheeran's song for our music video.

16. Location Permission

This is a short power point that shows I have asked for access to all of my locations.

17. Talent Release Form

Here is a document that shows I am allowed to film the artist performing his song. With out this document the artist could turn round mid filming and say he quits. This gives me the proof that he has agreed to let me use him and film him in my music video. This is a simple sheet each is very important to the process as it gives me the safety that the artist has to be in the music video. 

11. Location

For my music video I wanted to have a range of different locations. This would allow me to have as much footage as I possible could. As my song has a quick pace I want to be able to edit quickly with the beat. I have chosen to do this as I think it will make my video look professional as my research showed me that music videeos cut on the beat. And the most successful music videos have three or more locations. I have chosen to have three locations, a dark room, a conservatory and walking on the street. These locations are very different and will help keep the audience interested in the music video.

Street:

The first location is on the street, this will help tell the audience the narrative of the music video. I want to give the idea that the artist is sad and lonely as this will help the audience understand the message behind the song. This location will make the artist seem down to earth as he will be walking the streets like every other perosn. We will also see performance shots on the street. This will allow me to have a lot of footage of the artist lip-syncing so that the audience can see the talent that he has. It will help make the video successful as it will seem to the audience that it is professional.  

Dark Room:

The second location is in a dark room, in this location we will see mainly performance shots of the artist singing and playing his instruments. The dark from will tell the audience that the artist is lonely feels sad. This will give the idea of love loss to the audience. I will also use this as another location but I will change the set of the room. I will use the second set to get more narrative and concept shots in. I will use it to show the artist making the origami birds and the dark setting with help set the mood and get the message across. It will also give me more footage to use when editing.

Conservatory:

This is the final location I will use, in this location the audience will see a mixture of performance and narrative shots. The audience will see him lip-syncing and playing his instruments, and we will see him looking out of his window which will give the message of the song across. I will also use the location to show some of the origami birds, in this location the birds will blow away through the conservatory doors.

As I started to film and started to edit the footage I started to see that the locations were not quite working so I came up with some new locations which you can see below. 

Here is my first location, Brick Lane. I thought about this as it is very narrow and the roads get very busy which will look good in the video as the artist walks past them. This location also has side roads which are not as busy which means we can get two different types of shots with this one location. 

9. Storyboards

Here is a short video of me and my group making our storyboards. As you can see we are spliting up the work so that we can get the work done quicker. We talked about the type of shots we want for each location and then we each took charge of doing something to help.





Here are my storyboards that I have made to help me make a professional and successful music video.




Here is my animatic, it is a video that shows what my music video will look like once it is all done. I took pictures of my storyboard and put them in the order I wanted. I then cut each shot down so that you can see how long each shot will last. This is roughly how I want my music video to look, there may be slight changes in the video if I change my mind on a shot or if a shot doesn't work as well as others.

Here are still images of my storyboards:
