Practice shots/scenes for video

In this shot, I wanted to capture my character running away from our protagonist, but I was unsure as to whether to use a tracking shot to catch her running away. 



In this shot, I decided to keep the camera still as she ran off. It isn't as interactive and feels quite lifeless.


The tracking shot of her running away is much more engaging, and it's much better to keep an audience entertained.

Prop making for music video and final outcomes

For my music video I needed to create some props to establish the idea that my character is a reknowned and coveted character in the narrative. I took inspiration from Lara Croft and the many games in her franchise.

Schedule

This is the calendar I will be sticking to for the production of my video.
I have decided to go to visit one of my actors on the 19th to the 20th before filming as they are also my artist. Therefore, I can get my artist images for the website, and also for some prop posters in the video that are imperative to some of the scenes in my music video. 
Then, on the 22nd to the 24th, both of my actors will be free for us to film all the necessary scenes of the video. 
The earlier establishing shots will be filmed on the 22nd; including scenes of London, to set the location, and also the outside shots of the house. Then, on the 23rd, the main bulk of filming which features both Chris Styles, and Hayley Osbourne will take place, with us using Southwark Park for the majority of filming - as mentioned in a prior location post. 
The 24th will then be used to review the footage and grab some last minute shots while I'm still on location - just in case anything has been missed in the rush of the main filming day. 
Once all footage has been collated, editing will hopefully begin on the 25th!

Sketching and Storyboarding

This is the vaguely outlined storyboard for my music video. It hits every pivotal scene that I am definitely going to film and include; however, it also leaves room for me to take creative liberty in places. This will give me scope to experiment with various shot types and locations within Southwark Park. I have labelled some of the shot types and transitions, but not all - once again to enhance my creativity on the shooting days. I believe I will make some minor changes on the day, but the general idea of the video and the overall direction I'm taking will remain intact.
