Prop List

One of the props I have bought is a mirror this is for a scene where the character stands a in front of the mirror and uses a lipstick to circle all her flaws. This is a very important part of the video as it shows how she see herself and how much she critics herself.



This mask is for the shots in the dressing room. In the story she is auditioning for the main part in a musical and the scene in the dressing room is her imagination as she sees herself getting the part. It represents her dream of being a successful ballerina; the fact it is a mask as well shows she uses it to hide behind.





Other props I would like to use is a poster of swan lake Russian Ballet or of a famous ballerina. This is to go up in her room and use as a transition shot between her room and the ballet studio. I also plan to have her reading a few magazines to show the influence of media on her.

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.

Final Plot Ideas (Preliminary Task)

This is our final plot ideas: The main character (a young boy) puts on his superhero mask and runs into his garden to get into his tent/den. The tent then transports him into another woodland world in which there will be others all dancing. In the middle of all the dancing and partying in the new forest the young boy will trip up/fall over in some way and as he hits the floor he will be transported back to his garden and outside the tent/den.  The boy will then realise he's back home and may be greeted by his mother asking wheres he been (that scene will be dependant on availability of actors). We tried to keep our idea as simplistic as possible, this was to ensure that we didn't over complicate the meaning of the video which is simply just about the young boy enjoying himself in his own imagination when he has the safety of his superhero costume on.

Song Choice

These are the song choices I have thought of for the revised narrative of the music video.
