Photoshoot plan

Talent Release Forms

These are the talent release forms for everyone who is involved in the music video. It is all filled out and signed so every person involved is legally bound to follow the schedule through to when they are no longer needed. These are put in place so that the person who is involved has to stay involved and cannot back out, if they do we have the documents to show they agreed to it and that they cannot back out. They are also useful as it has all the participants contact information so we can contact them if needs be.

Location Permissions letter

 

Here is a letter which is to be sent to any locations managers for the locations we are trying to film on to gain their permission to film there and if they decide to change their mind about us we have it in writing that they had agreed to let us film there for the specific dates and times listed.

Draft Advertisments

 

Here are three drafts advertisements we had come up with for our bands album. My one is the black and white advertisement with the man in the suit wearing the monkey mask. I like elements from all of the advertisements. With the drawn one i like the idea of the three band members with the warped text of the album name and the monkey face logo. The monkey wearing the suit I like because it is a memorable idea and people will remember it. I like mine for the rock feel to it, as it seems quite artsy and uses a font to reflect the rock of the band.

Costume and prop ideas

Here is a mock up of the things that i would be wearing and some of the props that would be used in the music video. Some of these things will be used by the band as a whole like the musical instruments. Some other things will be a recurring item through the music video like the boxes and the vase and picture frame will be used in the slow motion shot of things that will fly through the frame which would relate to the relationship and the breaking up.

cd ideas

Here is the CD cover ideas that each of our group has made up and we are going to build off of these ideas we have come up with individually. From this we can make one final CD cover that suits our group and will fit well with the type of image that we all want to give off about the band. There is also our shooting schedule which has all dates we will be filming on, who has to be there and what props and equipment we need to have there on the days. With this we can keep very organized and have it all completed in the right time.

Storyboard Video

Here is a video animation of our storyboard with the song that we have chosen to further visualize what we want to have for our music video. We have tried to sync up the shots to the beat as well as to try and visualize some of the types of editing we want to use.

Storyboards

St. Helier Train Station Location Scout

The pictures above are of St. Helier train station which is one of our locations for one of the strains of our narrative for the music video. This is where the characters luck gets even more worse because he misses his train because he drops one of his boxes down the stairs and has to retrieve the things from it and within that time the train has gone and he is even more upset and worse off!

The Concept

Here are some notes that we made about our concept which help us come up with the concept in total. Our concept is the idea of a narrative of a break up between two people and the rough patches they go through during this break up. We related this through the lyrics that we annotated of the song which sounds like there is a break up. We are going with an amplification approach to the music video as its the way we had analyzed the lyrics which gave us the best results for an idea that we want to do. The concept goes through a break up scenario where the man is thrown out of his house with his things and he is walking around with nowhere to go with all his baggage symbolism the baggage of the relationship and this goes on until his band steps in and helps him by taking on his baggage and working at his problems together as real friends.
