Practise Test Shots

Last night, our group decided that we should take a few practise shots in preparation for filming after half term. We filmed in one of our main locations, the Tithe Barn in the College. We used the lighting in the theatre, which included a red which made it warm looking. We placed the mirrors in a circle how we would like them to. The only problem with this was that there was a gap between the mirrors, meaning that we could see the stage and the chairs behind. After seeing this, we turned the lights down further, however, the footage was then too dark. For the future, we'll film the video after the stage and chairs have been moved.

Pre-Visualisation

Planning for our Music Video

Here is a discussion between our group about different aspects of our Music Video. In this discussion, we talk about our cover idea for our digi-pak by using a special app. I explain how we are going to use make-up to create the effect of bruising and the use of fake blood, which will make our male character have that edgy and eerie feel. We speak of lighting for our music video and the location of where we will film. We also talk in detail about our concept and how we will film each scene.

Mood Board

All of these photos, from the mood board, have been taken for inspiration from different music videos. We will use these aspects throughout our music video. We have taken our main influence from alt-j, 'Breezeblocks' and 'Coming Down', Five Finger Death Punch.

Time Lapse of Storyboarding

First Look at our Location Shots

Here are two locations where we think we are going to film our music video. The first four are taken in my kitchen, where we believe the murder will take place as we are able to splatter blood on the wall. The rest of the shots are from the Tithe Barn at school. This place is a good to film as it is a large space and has a set of mirrors, which allows us to move the mirrors around as much as we like.
