Shooting Schedule (Preliminary Task)

Day 1 Tuesday 5th July - We will shoot all the inside and garden footage at my house for about the first 45 seconds of the video. All three of us will be there and these shots are only of Toby so we don't need any extras.
Day 2 Tuesday 12th July - This is for the main part of the music video and will be shot at Longs Wood. We have arranged to have a drone to film on and for 3 extras as well as Toby.
Day 3 - Thursday 21st July - We will be filming the finale to the music video and any extra shots we need. For this we have managed to get 4 extras and Toby.

Song Choice

I've chosen to use Powerless by Rudimental as the song for my music video. This has been one of my potential choices from when I first changed my idea. I wasn't really sure whether it would fit or not but after I put it with my footage to see how they went together, I thought they fitted really well. I've divided the song into sections of the choruses and verses so that I can match my footage accordingly. The music video to this already contains a strong narrative as do many of Rudimental's videos.

Initial Ideas

I have to so initial ideas, they are similar ideas but based around two different songs. I like to mind map my ideas because this means i can link parts together and getting everything down on paper before I start adapting it. One of the main parts of mise en scene that I want to focus on more than the others is camera angles. This is going to be important especially to show the change in perspective between the characters. It will also give the video an edge.

Editing - Transitions (Preliminary Task)

A key part of our music video is when he appears at a different location so I spent some time adding cool transition effects to the footage. The first one is a dissolve and directional blur this doesn't quite have the flow I wanted because the shots were filmed on separate days meaning the camera angles are different. The second is a cross zoom, I prefer this one because it hides the cut between the shots a lot better making it almost seem like one take; this will be the one we use in the final cut.
