Storyboard


Storyboards

Below is the storyboard for our music video that we will use as a guideline or benchmark for our filming ambitions.

We shall follow up on these blueprints and stay true to them as much as possible to show consistency with our filming and to show that we have carefully planned out our music video with care to make it look as alternative as possible.

Whilst we shall still do this, we will also improvise and add additional shots on the filming days due to the fact that once we are on location we shall utilise our media expertise in order to incorporate additional shots that we feel will help us gain additional marks in our production. Overall we shall not let this factor impede our already good storyboard but we shall show field improvisation in order to overall improve our production.
If we do decide to scrap or modify one scene we can then compare it the original draft and then justify why we chose not to do it to emphasize upon our adaptability.

Our overall priority is to make sure that the concepts of our ideas and locations go together to suit the alternative genre and not subvert the conventions of it. This shows how dedication to make the best media product that we can possibly






Cutting To The Beat

Cutting To The Beat

These are shots of cutting to the beat of the lyrics. We have coloured coded it so that we understand when everything cuts and then when we go out filming it is easy to follow.

In the event that we have a situation that needs to be addressed by the emergency services, we will ALL carry mobile phones in case we need to call for help and we will all charge them to 100% the night before to ensure that they last as long as possible whilst we are out filming. In addition, in the event that we are confronted by people for whatever reason, we will need to extract ourselves from the location and get to safety as soon as possible.

An example of this could be that if one of us had an allergy to something we need to ensure that at least one of us had an epipen on hand in order to addresses the issue effectively without putting the victims health at risk or in extreme cases saving them from dying from an allergic reaction. To stop this happening in the first place, if anybody does have an allergic reaction, they will need to be vigilant with what they touch/go near in order to try to prevent from happening in the first place. Also, for standard injuries, we will need to have a small medical kit on hand in order to attend to wounds such as cuts and bruises.
 
 
 
Send letter to parents highlighting H&S issues and student responsibilities

Prop List

Prop List For our Music Video
 


Below is a prop list of all the equipment that we shall be utilising on our filming day for the music video. 
 
 

Budget List

Budget List
A budget list shows the main props and costumes that we want to purchase to use in our production. The list shows the name, price and location of the item that we need. It is extremely important that we create a budget list so that we can keep track of the total cost of our production. It will also help us to control our money more carefully as we will know what we need. Plus it will inform the group of how much money each person needs to contribute to the production.
