What happens, visual elements, shots Notes of technical aspects/requirements
beginning 7 secs Will be a change between the same
amount of shots as the music as the beat
beeps about 4 times so every beat the
shot will change in a style of a
compilation as such.
Different shots all need to be in
different angle and length e.g.
cannot all be medium shots
Beginning vocals
him
talking/mumbling
4 secs Will be a slow motioned shot of me in
the dark rooms the room begins to get
brighter until its pure white then
transitioned into a regular shot from
outside in the day beginning to rap
This will from a close up and go up
to an extreme close up to help
create the transition.
First line 4 secs Will be shot in one place which will be a
high angle view of me looking upwards
and towards the camera
