10:00am-11:00am

I will transcribe my treatment for my music video, which will involve looking into the proposals of the music video. I will clearly state what the aims of the

music video are as well as stating exactly what will be involved in the

production of the video.

questionnaire.

When Shannon was present we decided to alter the synopsis slightly in order to allow the

investor to get a real sense of what the storyline will be like for the music video. This will also

give them an idea of how this will appeal to the target audience. They will also be able to

recognise that a video like this has not been produced in the past.

11:00am-12: 15pm

I will compose my budget for my music video by researching the exact costs that will be involved in the production. I will

look into the contemporary costs involved in hiring shooting equipment

and actors.

Sophia

-Internet-Microsoft Excel

I went back and looked at the websites I have got the hire prices from as I found that some of them were not as trustworthy as others. After

looking at other websites I was able to understand that some of the prices other

websites had quoted were very unrealistic.

Shannon will print off the lyrics to the song that will be featured in the music video. She will then write up the basis for the music video explaining exactly what will happen at each point. I will then write up the script for my music

video, even though there will not be any spoken discourse in the video, I will

think strongly about the types of shots that will be involved in the video. I will

also look into the types of facial expressions and body language the

actors will have to portray in the piece.

Sophia & Shannon

-Microsoft Word

I looked back at the script and altered the layout of the page in order to make it much more

understandable for when the characters look at it. For example, I moved their actions to the left hand side of the page, leaving the voice over of

the song in the centre of the page so that the cast can see what’s what.

Shannon will draw up the storyboard after analysing the script in order to

understand exactly what sort of shots and camera angles will be included and

displaying these through the types of drawings.

Shannon & Sophia

-Script

We were going to draw up the storyboard on Photoshop with a graphic tablet, however after completing the storyboard by hand we felt that

this displayed what we wanted much more clearly as it showed the shots in a good amount of depth. By having basic drawings we felt as though this will help us when shooting, as it is

clear to see what the scene is and what’s happening. I coloured the storyboard in after Shannon completed it in order to make certain

props in the scene stand out so we can see what is most significant in the scene. I coloured the protagonist and antagonist in different colours so when looking at the storyboard we will be

able to clearly recognise who is who.

29/01/20131:30pm-3pm

As some of the locations we are using for the music video will be shot at

Shannon’s house, she will be responsible for drawing up the site plans for the

video in rough and I will be responsible for recreating the drawings on

Photoshop.

Sophia & Shannon -Shannon’s drawings

-Photoshop

When creating the site plans we had to think thoroughly about the exact locations we will be using when shooting our music video. We had to discuss seriously about what outside locations will be ideal for the music video. In the end, we decided that the ideal location would be to shoot around the area of Shannon’s house as this would fit strongly with the target audience of the indie rock music video.

08/02/2013

15/02/20139:30am – 12:30pm

Shannon will write up the Location Release form in rough and I will write it

up onto the computer so that it looks professional however fits to our house style. Shannon will then be responsible for gathering the signatures as it will be her mum’s she needs to get in order to

shoot in her home.

Sophia & Shannon -Microsoft Word

The only change we’ve made to this task is the fact that we have decided to shoot on a different date to which we have stated in the form. The

reason we have changed the date of shooting is due to the availability of our actors due to

academic circumstances.

15/02/2013

15/02/20139:30am – 12:30pm

Shannon will write up the Talent Release form in rough. I will then type it up in best on Microsoft word in order to make it look realistic and professional.

15/02/20139:30am-12: 30pm

Shannon will write up the Risk Assessments so that we are able to

understand the precautions we must take when shooting and how we must act upon it if an emergency did occur.

Shannon & Sophia

-Microsoft WordAfter re-visiting the locations we plan to shoot our music video in, we were able to discover a

lot more risks that could occur. Especially when visiting the locations in the times that we plan

to shoot.

15/02/2013

15/02/201310:45am-12:30pm

Sophia will be responsible for typing up the call sheets. This allows the

producers to recognise what script pages the actors feature on as well as the types

of props and costumes the actors will need to be wearing.

as well as images of certain rooms where we will be shooting.

01/03/20139:30am – 10:45am

Shannon and I will write up the photo shoot plans for our ancillary tasks

directly into a blog post. This will allow us to recognise the sort of costume and makeup that the audience of the Indie Rock genre would like to see and may

contribute towards persuading audiences to purchase the product available.

Shannon & Sophia

-wordpress.comWhen creating the digipak and advertisement the same image will be used however we have decided to draw on people to an image rather than taking a picture with people in it. This will follow the house style of the product much more and will create a unique look compared to other products within the genre. Within the digi-pak we have also decided to use an image of the band looking as though they are on tour rather than a posed image as we feel that this relates much more to the genre and will be much more interesting for the audience to look at.

08/03/201310am-4:00pm

The duration of this day we will shoot the music video of ‘First Love’. We will stick to usual conventions by capturing a number of shot types so that we have a range of footage to choose from when

editing.

Shannon & Sophia

-Camera-Tripod-Script

We made sure we followed the conventions of music videos by sticking to the script as much

as possible however when shooting we came up with even more ideas and captured them too so that we can choose which shots to use easily.

08/03/2013

19/03/201310:45am-12:30pm

We will begin to work on our first ancillary task, which is the digi-pak. We will ensure that we include the stereotypical conventions of the indie rock genre so that audiences will feel drawn to the product. The house style will be the same as the mock up as we feel as though this worked well. The colours and font also contribute towards drawing in the audience.

Shannon & Sophia

-Photoshop-Scanner

Rather than capturing an image of two people holding hands for the main image on the front cover of the album we decided to draw stick

people onto a scenic image as we felt it gave the album a much more personal touch. As a result of this, we also decided to hand write a lot more

of the pages in the digi-pak rather than using standard typing on Photoshop. We felt this

worked very well as it made the album look a though it had been produced for someone with a

much more personal touch.

22/03/2013

19/03/201310:45am-12:30pm

We will begin to work on our second ancillary task, which is the magazine advertisement. We will ensure that we include the stereotypical conventions of the indie rock genre so that audiences

will feel drawn to the product. The house style will be the same as the mock

up as we feel as though this worked well. The colours and font also

contribute towards drawing in the audience.

Shannon & Sophia

-Photoshop-Scanner

We followed the idea of our digi-pak for this production as we decided to hand draw the

image again as we used the same image on the advertisement as to the front cover of the

album. This followed the house style much more strictly. Although a typewriter font was

used in some of the advertisement it still added a unique look to the advertisement as usually a

standard sans serif font is used.

Today we will begin the edit decision list for our music video. This will

determine the shots we will use and will explain why each shot is successful or not. Both Sophia and Shannon will be

responsible for choosing which shots to keep and writing the edit decision list by hand. Sophia will then type it up into a

table so that it looks much more professional.

Shannon & Sophia

-Final Cut Pro-Microsoft word

It was relatively easy to decide which shots to keep or delete however some that we felt were much more significant could not be used due to lighting problems, continuity and or the camera

at the wrong distance/angle.26/03/2013

26/03/201313:30-4:00pm

We will now begin to edit our music video. We will fit each shot to the beat in order to fit with conventions of music videos as well as linking the storyline to the lyrics when necessary.

Shannon & Sophia -Final Cut Pro

-Edit Decision List

We were unable to stick to our script at some points as our actors sometimes did not act the way we wanted. We also came up with new ideas when filming and decided to capture them if we needed any extra footage.

05/04/2013

03/04/201311:30am-3:00pm

We will now begin to evaluate our music video. This will display what went well and what didn’t as well as getting feedback from peers in order to see how we could improve the video.
