Shot list

To prepare myself for the days I start to film my work, I have composed a shot list of all the shots that I want for my video. I organised this by splitting my video up based on the lyric that is sung at each point in the song, that way I can work out exactly how long each shot duration should last for. I then visualised each shot I wanted in time with the music, stating what kind of shot it was and giving a description of the video at that point in the song. 

Here is a link to the spreadsheet I created with all of the information I need to film my video.

No longer doing Tour Visuals

Image
 After a tutorial with my lecturer, I have decided that my original idea of doing 'Tour visuals' for a concert is too ambitious for my project. Given the planning required to get a video created, it is a lot more sensible if I just make one video compared to multiple. If I have more time then I will attempt to make more than one video, but at this point in the project I am going to fully plan one video at a time. With this in mind, I have decided to revert just to a traditional music video, keeping within the same theme and style of the existing Petals For Armor  music videos by Hayley Williams. I have decided that my song of choice will be 'Sugar On The Rim' because it has a really interesting lyrical meaning, comparing the silver lining on a new relationship to that of the sugar pressed to the rim of a glass. I think I have a lot of ideas that I can experiment with using this concept so I am looking forward to creating my shot list where I will detail exactly what I w...

Technical tutorials 3

This may be a strange blog post, but for one of my shots I thought it would be interesting to have a scene with a 'milk bath', so basically a bath that is filled with milk so that the water is opaque. I have seen photography shoots with this and I thought it would look really angelic, ethereal and capture the feminine theme that I am aiming for with my own music video. I found this tutorial on YouTube which I found to be very informative in explaining how to create this scene. Essentially you just fill the bathtub with water, and then this user poured 'a gallon' of full-fat milk over the top and that created the opaque look. She then scatters flowers over the top which I think makes the scene look really pretty so I definitely want to try this myself, despite how gross it kind of is.

Song choices

Here are some songs I am considering using for my degree project.  I will potentially make about 3-5 videos so will need 3-5 songs. I am still unsure of the genre and style I want the videos to be, so I am including a multitude of song ideas just to get my thoughts out there. Multiple tracks from Hayley Williams' album Petals For Armor : Simmer Leave It Alone Cinnamon  Dead Horse Why We Ever Sugar On The Rim Crystal Clear Multiple tracks from Daughter's album Music From Before the Storm: Burn It Down Witches All I Wanted Dreams of William Grimes 4ÆM Oblivion Future Holograms Valentine Crystal Castles Celestica Lady Gaga Aura Replay Alice Babylon I am most leaning towards using tracks from Petals For Armor  by Hayley Williams for a few reasons. The album only came out this year so it is still very fresh. The album has also not gone on tour yet so there are no pre-existing tour visuals for me to draw inspiration from, meaning if I were to create my own visuals, they would b...
