3. RESEARCH & IDEA
GENERATION
Wherever you go/Avalanche
1. artistic looking and slow shots of a car with overlays of videos of
space
2. artistic looking and slow shots of a car with overlays of videos of
space with an explotion at the end
3. I was going to have someone on a bed in a room with led lights
slowly fading between colours
4. RESEARCH
Labrinth – Forever : this video had the singer lying in a chequered
floor singing the song with lights slowly changing colours as the
camara slowly moves closer and futher away from him
Labrinth - Mount Everest : this video had the singer in the centre of
the room with a piano playing as he sings the song
Kid Cudi - The Void : this video is an animation with the singer's head
in many different colours with a man falling into the head as one side
of the head explodes with the new york skyline in the background
Hint!
You’ve already done this in your
case study, so you can
summarise that here where
relevant
5. POTENTIAL SONGS
Were ever you go – Avalanche – This was the one I used
The void – kid Cudi
Nightcall – Kavinsky
Forever – labrinth
Mount Everest – labrinth
6. POTENTIAL TECHNIQUES

a classic car and people
Close up shots of cars
Slow cinematic shots
8. SUMMARY

2. The video will be shot outside so I need to have good whether
(were its no raining)
3. One shot will be shot in the rain, so I need to wait till it rains
4. one shot will be in the rains so the camara could get damaged
5. I'm riling on there not being another lockdown as some of the video
requires me to travel
9. SUMMARY

11. FINAL IDEA – TRACK
SUMMARY
The song is about space and the idea of intelligent life in
space its also about travailing
The track in upbeat and mysterious it starts of slow then speeds up
during the song
The song is 5:50 (but I can cut out the bits that I don’t need)
The song is about travel and space (I'm going to focus on the travel)
12. FINAL IDEA – YOUR IDEA
At the start the camara is going to face out on to a field with two
people standing out on the middle of it with a dog sat by their side.
The camara will then cut to a slow cinematic of the surrounding area.
There will be another cut and the camara will be in the corner of the
field facing right the camara will slowly pan left sa a car comes round
a corner the camara will the focus on the car and will follow the car
round the bend and finish with the car ether stopping or still driving.
Then there will be a cut to some people cycling down a road. There
will be a cut to a view from the window of a train and the cut to the
view out the window of a car. Towards the end of the song there will
be multiple cuts to different people's faces in different places the end
scene will be the view of the field at the start but there will be no one
in the field as it cuts to someone sat in a car as they start the car and
drive off and the camara will look up and go in to darkness.

21. Pre-visualization/CONCEPT
BOARDS
Look and feel of the video: I wanted the video to look peacefull an
d slowly get more chaotic I also wanted the video to not look like a
music video, but still fit in if music was overlapped on to it.
Colour: I didn’t specifically choose any colours for the video or any
specific lighting I just went with whatever happened for example I
didn’t care what colour the car was I just knew I wanted a car in the
video. And I wanted to shoot in day light.
Staging: I wanted the staging to look aesthetic as a photograph but
also a video. When I got the people to stand in the field it was
supposed to look nice as a still image as well as a video.

29. Location information
This was the only
real location that I
wanted to film at
because I liked the
amount of space it
gave me to film and
I like the turn. I
didn’t get any
permition to use this
location because it
is a small country
road and we only
came acros one car
and the wasn’t a
problem. There was
no plan B because I
knew that the road
would be clear for a
long period of time.
30. CONTINGENCY
PLANNING
My big problem with this is that I didn’t have a proper plan. Covid and
the lack of availability meant that I have got gaps in my video next
time I will be better prepared.
For example, as a contingency I would have shot all the footage with
people beforehand. Then if they were unavailable, I would have
footage.
31. PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
4 hours (morning) - field/car/countrylane shots
4 hours (morning/afternoon) friends and still life shots
Due to COVID:
30 minutes for stock images
1 hour 30 minutes editing
