Planning our idea

Out of the three options available (Music video, children's TV show, or short film), we have decided to choose either short film or music video. This was chosen because making music videos is new to us, so we will enjoy the experience more than doing another film, however if we do not think that the music video will work, then we will choose short film. We also enjoyed doing the preliminary task, which helped to prompt our decision.

I will be working with Dan Saker, Luke Bates, and Charlie Woodrow. We will all have many different qualities and skills to bring to the video including:

Dan:
Director of the video, planning of shots and angles
Luke:
Editing, musical editing and mixing, filming
Me:
Filming, planning, and writing
Charlie:
The arty stuff, posters, album cover, costume, setting, mise-en-scene

Working in a group of 4 may be difficult to co-ordinate our plans and agree on ideas but we believe that it will ultimately make our outcome a much better quality.

For this task, our main aim is to create a believable, successful outcome. We think that an outcome of this quality will include:

• a detailed planning process
• attention to detail with filming (preventing continuity)
• music that suits the video
• planning and storyboarding of the shots
• well stitched editing
• an original story/idea

Our next step is to plan out ideas for our video, and to choose a song.
