2. GUIDANCE
This template PowerPoint presentation includes all the
relevant elements you need to cover in your Music Video
Assignment
It is suggested you save this PP in a different name and
share it with your group so you always have a copy – some
sections require you to delete the information on the slide
and replace with your own work
Add more pages to each section where necessary [you
should be doing this!]
Add visuals as you see necessary
This document will be added to as you progress through the
pre-production phase.
Delete this slide when complete
4. RESEARCH & IDEA
GENERATION
Select a song/track that you like [or don’t like!]
Generate three ideas for music videos employing styles,
techniques and conventions that we have looked at in
previous sessions. Explore how you could interpret the
song differently using different methods
You can add any extra info you think is relevant, images,
mind maps, etc
For quick mind maps you could use bubbl.us to generate
these
5. RESEARCH
Watch a selection of videos to get your ideas started,
make note of a minimum of 5 – add extra slides,
screenshot the video and in bullet point note down info
in terms of camera, editing, art design, performance, etc
and how this might link to your production
Hint!
You’ve already done this in
your case study, so you can
summarise that here where
relevant

7. RESEARCH
I will be taking inspiration from the five videos I've linked in the
previous slide which are all drill videos, I will be trying to replicate
some of the similar effects and visuals used to create my video. All of
these videos are conventional drill videos with many similarities in
terms of the way that they are both filmed and edited, lots of pan
shots, continuous shots as well as mid, long and close ups, with slow
motion used effectively as well. The editing is done in a way that
stylistically is associated to drill and trap rap music videos with lots of
visual effects that link and pop onto the screen in time with the beat as
well as a variety of smooth, interesting transitions that fit the mood of
the songs. A lot of glitching and shaking between transitions for added
for extra effect.
8. RESEARCH
In “exit wounds” They’ve filmed with the story
line that they are surgeons performing on a
patient whilst wearing costumes. Fits well with
the mood of the song and the lyrics.

Use of visual effects for example when Blanco's lyrics
read “Spartan baby I might splash” a water effects
sweeps onto the screen as well as the lyrics
themselves, could see myself taking inspiration from
this.
Visual effects used as references to the song, when Blanco
uses bar about crash bandicoot he pops onto the screen
smoothly n it looks really nice, this is used multiple times in
the track and I will likely take inspiration from this and apply
it to my own works.

They have edited this so at first
it looks like a window but then
it cuts to static but then it goes
into the video, effective

9. IDEA GENRERATION
My music video will be filmed and edited In the format of the “drill”
genre, the song I am most likely to use is Blanco x bis’s “I don’t mind”
and I will take inspiration from this video as well as the others I've
linked in the previous slide. Visually wise I will include various shots off
flash cars as well as flares and people wearing masks to keep with the
conventions of a drill music video, setting wise, I know many locations
which would be suitable including potentially abandoned buildings
however would need permission from the site manager to be able to do
this. I would like to use drone shots which could be used as I am
currently working on borrowing a drone of a mate, I think I could do a
lot of effects on smoke and fire so I will try get my hands on flares and
smoke grenades to be used correctly and safely for the purpose of this
video. I will be taking inspiration for this project from drill videos I have
seen before and potentially might try to use some of the effects I have
seen before an apply it to my own works, for example the splashing
water effect I have talked about in the previous slide might work well
with this. I will not copy anything I have seen in previous videos but
instead do my own spin on it. The camera work will once again follow
the conventions of drill, I will include a lot of low angled shots that
portray dominance and power as well as panned shots and continuous
10. POTENTIAL SONGS
There are many drill songs I could choose from and hope to use in future
projects but I'm going to narrow it down to music I'm currently listening to.
The songs that I think could work well with what I am wanting to do are
blanco x bis’s “I don’t mind” as well as SL’s “100 thoughts” there are many
other songs that would work well with my ideas but these two are what I've
narrowed it down to, my final decision however could be swayed if
something better fits my criteria. Ideally a song with a good beat as the
editing needs to fit around it. I think I am most likely to choose “I don’t
mind” as visually and editing wise I think there is more I could probably do
with this track, as I already have some ideas in place that need to be put
into practice. I think the beat in general will be easier to edit around rather
than “100 thoughts” as “I don’t mind’s” heavy base would work really like for
transitions and would look nice and smooth in the final edit.

11. POTENTIAL TECHNIQUES
The editing techniques that I would like to use are those most frequently used within to
the drill genre, such as flashing and shaking between transitions, freeze frame
animation, changing the color of things like smoke and fire and generally smooth
transitions that look cool, RGB splitting could be used very effectively for example with
green screened blood squirting on a car or wall as seen below. Endless possibilities in
terms of editing I think I will need to film and review the footage and see what I can do
but, I do have some potential ideas that could work nicely. I will certainly be taking a lot
of inspiration from other drill videos that I have seen however I will not copy exactly
anything I have previously seen but instead do my own version/spin off on the original
idea.
RGB splitting of blood potentially will
be used
Example of freeze frame editing, I will try to use this
12. CONVENTIONS YOU PLAN TO
USE
I plan to include visuals of flash cars that I will then layer some effects
on top off. I also plan to involve visuals of me and potentially others
dancing, doing hand signals and lip syncing some of the words wearing
masks/covering face, at no point in the video will you see the identity
of those involved, which is often common within the drill genre. when it
comes to the edit I can throw some effects onto this a sync it with the
beat to create a classic drill convention. I would also like to include
multiple settings with lots of takes which will make the editing process
easier as there will be a large pool to choose from in terms of footage.
Filming and editing it will be done in a way that other drill artists have
used with lots of close up and panned shots. I would also like to use
RGB splitting when it comes to the final edit to create some nice effects
and transitions, for example blood squirting and water splashing onto
the screen in sync with the lyrics. I will also include visuals of shoes
and clothes and put some visual effects on things like the Nike tick for
example or changing the color off the lettering on a jumper or t shirt.
13. MIND MAP OF IDEAS
[SUMMARY OF IDEAS]
.Drill video . song; I don’t mind or
100 thoughts
.Wide range of locations . Use of flares and
smoke grenades
.Use of RGB splitting . Abandoned buildings
.Multiple shots for a large footage pool . People in
background
.Visuals of cars and people . Masked faces
.Some props used .freeze frame editing
.potential use of drone shots .visual effects on
shoes/clothes
.lots on visual effects
14. SUMMARY
5 opportunities of your ideas
.visuals of cars, able to highlight and throw effects onto
cars which is a convention of dill.
.freeze frame editing techniques, once again a key
convention of drill music/videos.
.visuals of smoke with added effects thrown on top,
might potentially be able to change the color of the
smoke itself and add flickering which would look really
nice.
.potential drone shots, will take my video to the next
level and make it look more professional
. Smooth transitions, I will film transitions correctly so
when it comes to the final edit things look nicer and
seem to fit better together.
15. SUMMARY
5 restrictions to your ideas
.no prior editing experience on after effects, so when it
comes to the final edit I could see myself struggling
potentially but with the right guidance and teaching this
shouldn't’t be a major problem.
.limited experience on premier pro, I have only used
premier once prior to this the project in the induction week
when I made a short film titled “the key” I got to grips
quickly with how it worked and am proud of my final edit
considering I had no prior experience with editing.
. Car is in the garage for a week so need to fit my filming
around that.
.gaining permission to film in abandoned buildings, need to
make sure I am not trespassing onto others land without the
green light to do so.
.if I cant get my hands on a drone the video will not reach
its potential, drone shots will take my video to another level
so would be really useful to include these visuals.
16. FINAL IDEA –
ARTIST/TITLE/INFO
I don’t mind- Blanco x bis
Blanco and bis are both members of the London drill group “Harlem
Spartans” who are located in kennington, they were one of the first
major drill groups to blow up after the emergence off rappers like loski
and mizormac who were instrumental players in the genre off drill as
well as the poster boys for HS, many of Harlem Spartans members are
currently in and out of prison which means focusing on music isn’t
always there top priority, they were set to be the biggest drill group in
London before key members, most notably mizormac went away who is
arguably the best drill rapper the UK has ever seen, he was arrested
and sentenced to 6 years just as HS were gaining some real recognition
for there works, although loski and mizormac are the most well known
this does not mean other members like Blanco and bis as well as Zico
aren’t equally as cold. Blanco who has recently just come back out of
prison is seeming to focus on his music now and leaving the roads
behind and this tune “I don’t mind” is one of his first since he has
returned to music.
HS are similar to other groups within the genre such as zone 2, 410,
OFB and 67 who are probably the most well known groups within the
genre which has caused some bad blood over the years, most notably
HS’s beef with 410 and zone 2, in their lyrics and videos all of these
groups are very similar with the way they throw disses and act in videos
but different at the same time with the styles of flow used by the
rappers and the identity of the rappers themselves.
17. FINAL IDEA-
ARTIST/TITLE/INFO
Drill music is a style of trap music defined by its dark, violent lyrical
content and ominous trap influenced beats. It’s a genre that isn’t
shown in a good light within the media, constantly getting shade
thrown at the artists for inciting violence within the music and videos
which sometimes can lead to shootings and stabbings, this is because
of the violent nature within London itself not because of this genre.
Drill was founded by the influence of Chicago trap rapper chief keef
with tunes such as “love sosa” and “I don’t like” he influenced a wave of
young UK listeners to start making a similar style of music known as
drill, which is just a UK spin on the trap style rap the streets of Chicago
were seeing in the early 2010’s, the first major drill group to come to
light in the UK was 67, a group from Brixton who's best known track is
“lets lurk” which lead them to get nominated for a MOBO award for best
newcomer in 2016, however the UK police has labelled the group 67 as
a “criminal gang” for the activities they are involved in on the streets.
18. FINAL IDEA – TRACK
SUMMARY
Summary/analysis of track [consider meaning, content, duration, pace
and style of the song]
The beat is a ominous trap style beat with a hard heavy base, whilst the
beat itself is a fairly slow tempo, at points the rapping is fast and lasts
a duration of 2.58. compared to their other works a lighter mood is
portrayed from Blanco and bis in contrast to what we are used to from
Harlem Spartans dark, violent lyrics. Whilst the lyrics in the song are
still conventions of drill it is rapped in a way that doesn’t make it
sound as violent. They are talking about the life they live on the streets
after just coming out of prison and what they do to get money and
what they then spend their money on, you will see them both make
references to expensive clothes and shoes and in the video it highlights
yet again a key convention of drill, which is the fashion culture in
London and the UK In general. Highlighting
expensive clothes
and shoes
19. FINAL IDEA – YOUR IDEA
Your creative concept/video synopsis [describe your
interpretation, use of imagery or narrative, genre
conventions, etc]
My final idea is to produce a drill music video that will include visuals
of flash cars, people in the background wearing masks doing hand
signs. There will be some moments lip synced but not to many because
it would the pain of syncing up the music with the lip syncing if we do
too much. There will be some pyrotechnics involved with the use of
smoke grenades which will create some very nice visuals. There will be
two cars involved in the video, a Mercedes convertible and a blacked
out polo. However they will be used for more than just visuals but as
potentially a source of light when filming at night. There will be no
identities of the persons involved within the video as we will all be
masked which is a common convention of drill. I will be filming at a
couple different location one of which will be an abandoned building.
21. GUIDANCE:
PRE-PRODUCTION
ASSESSMENT
You need to assess the viability of your production and
investigate what is required to enable you to make your
music video
Much of this task is hypothetical, which means you will
need to investigate standard costings for such a
production and apply these to your planned production
considering which equipment you would need and
resources, etc
Resources to support this are in the Pre-production
assessment folder on Blackboard
Delete the questions on each slide and insert your
responses
22. TITLE OF
PRODUCTION/PRODUCTION
OUTLINE
I intend to make a classic conventional drill video to the song “I don’t
mind” by blanco and bis.
The track is an ominous trap rap style beat with a heavy base with both
fast pace rapping as well as slow, the mood of the song is fairly violent
sticking to the conventions of drill but it is rapped in a way that makes
it sound not so violent, the pace of the song is fast in parts but slow in
others, the lyricism Is fairly nihilistic seeing their way of life failing to
see the views of others, the way they deliver the lyrics is calm.
To create my video I will need some equipment to be provided for me
for example, cameras, stabilizers and colored gels for lighting
I will include shots of cars as well as various other creative visuals
including fire, smoke and water. I also plan to use drone shots In my
video
23. LOCATIONS
You I want to include various locations to shoot in including an
abandoned building but would need to gain permission to be there
from the owner, I will get round this potential issue by getting in touch
with the rightful owner. Another location which could potentially work
would be either Sutton bank or the white horse which are both located
close to my house. this idea could be hindered the by the weather on
the day I’ll manage this by choosing a suitable day to film. I might also
film at various other locations including, the fly over bridge located on
the a19 close to my home as well as lake gourmire which is close to
Sutton bank. Distance is not likely to cause any problems as all the
locations I am wanting to film at aren't a great distance away from my
house. I will perform a recce on all of these location plus more to make
sure that they will be suitable for filming and eliminate the risks.
Drone shots of
these locations
would create
amazing visuals
24. EQUIPMENT
Equipment wise I will be using what the college can provide me, I would
like access to a camera, tripod, stabilizers, colored gels for lighting and
whatever else I can get my hands on, I can gain access to all of this
through blackboard which is used to book kit, however will need to
book in advance to ensure I get everything I need. I will be supplying
my own costumes, which will include many changes of shoes and
clothes as well as masks to be used in the production to stick within
the conventions of drill. I am trying to get my hands on a drone to get
some extra visuals that will work really nicely with what I am trying to
do. This all depends however if my mate is available on the days I am
planning to film on which is likely to be a Thursday and Friday as they
are the days I am free. I will also need to wait until my car is out of the
garage until I can film any visuals of that which I plan to be an integral
part of my video, it should be fixed by the time it comes to filming.
25. FACILITIES
I will be doing all of my editing during college time unless I am able to
gain access to applications like premier pro and after effects at home. I
think it will work for me best if I am able to do all the editing at college
as I will be able to ask questions to the teachers as well as my piers, I
have limited experience when it comes to editing and using after
effects so it will work best if I have support and am able to learn along
the way. i have a lot of ideas when it comes to editing I just need to be
taught how to navigate and use these applications as I have limited
experience doing so. I will not need any specialist equipment or studios
to carry out this project.
26. PERSONNEL
Me and harry will be filming together and id like to think we both bring
a lot to the table. We are on the same wave length ideas wise and seem
to work creatively and get stuff done working together. Harrys main
strengths would include editing, after effects, Photoshop as well as
bringing creative ideas to the table. My strengths would include
bringing creative ideas to the table as well as organizing and directing
fellow group members into roles for the shoot. My weaknesses
definitely include editing as I have limited prior experience on premier
as well as no experience on after effects. As a team we have limited
experience handling camera’s so that is likely to be a weak point but
there is no evidence how good/bad we are at filming. We are both able
to film on Thursday, Fridays , Saturday and Sundays so this will be the
days we are most likely to film.
I am not planning on including any external performers but if any of
my mates want to be in the video they are welcome to do so however
would probably have to transport them.
My dad is helping out in a way as he is letting me use his car for parts
and will most likely help by filming at some point.
27. PROPS/COSTUME/ETC
I will not be including many props as such however would like to
include the use of a blue and red smoke grenade to create some cool
visuals. Costume wise I will be taking different changes of clothes and
shoes on the day of the shoot as well as taking things like masks,
gloves and sunglasses. I plan to use green card to create a green
screen effect on things like the lenses in sunglasses and the
touchscreen in the car to create transitions. The clothes I will be
wearing will be conventionally drill related, brands like north face and
Nike will be used a lot throughout my video as well as other designer
brands. Cars will be used throughout my video and will be a real focus
point. Pictures of the cars I will be using are below.
29. PRE-PRODUCTION: VISUAL
PLANNING
This section is concerned with the visual planning of your
music video
You should use this section to develop the sequencing or
your video, establish the relationship between the visuals
and the track itself and create a structure for you to
follow when filming
It is important that you ‘pre-visualise’ the video before
you make it; it will make filming and production a more
streamlined process
The following tasks are part of your visual planning
Pre-visualisation and concept boards
Storyboarding
Shot list
30. PRE-
VISUALISATION/CONCEPT
BOARDS
Tool for exploring the direction and visuals
Provides inspiration and information for the “look & feel”
Presents key moments in your video
A means to sketch/plan ideas
Information on colour/lighting
Defining the “mise-en-scene” whats in the scene
Include as much here as you like, but keep it relevant to the
production, the following slides have been left blank for you
to approach in your own way, add more as you need to
Extension suggestion: edit a short sequence of clips that
have inspired or influenced your video [similar to this:

34. RIP-O-MATIC
You should also construct a 15-20second Rip-o-matic
test reel using existing footage to convey the type of
video you want to make
35. STRUCTURAL BREAKDOWN
the beginning of my video will open up with cinematic shots of my car that will fade to
black and transition to a drone shot of the car driving up until around the 18 second
mark when the beat drops. it will then cut back and forth from various locations with
me and harry performing, there will be a lot of low angle shots as well as slow motion
shots, pans and tracking shots. Around the 32 second point where Blanco starts to go
in their will be a location switch up to maybe the woods (Sutton bank) and there will be
various visuals and effects on show. For example a still shot but with certain areas
masked, with us walking in front of and behind trees which will look really nice and
clean in the edit. In this section I also plan to include various slow motion shots of
shoes and us just walking about in general with some over the shoulder shots as well as
low angle and close up slow motion shots of masks, to transition into the next shot I
will try to use blue card as sort of a green screen on a tree cutting to another shot.
When it gets to the 46 second mark their will be another location change to the fly over
bridge (in thirsk) with the car parked on it with me and harry performing in front of it
with low angle shots, slow motion visuals of masks and shoes once again as well as
more visuals of the car. At around the minute mark when Blanco comes back in it will
cut to inside the car with the camera focusing on the mirror which will be angled onto
my lips with me lip syncing the words and when certain verses are rapped, for example
”Spartan baby I might splash” I will throw a water splashing or wave effect over as well
as the verse which reads “semi auto no attachments” I want to have a glass shattering
effect or bullet holes onto the screen then transition into something else, I might try
transition by using a green screen on the touchscreen bit in my car by zooming into it
and transitioning into another shot. When it gets to the 1.15 mark it there will be
another location switch up this time to an abandoned building with various close up
slow motion shots of things in the building for example broken glass and smashed
bottles as well as tracking shots of graffiti. There will be more low angled shots of me
and harry performing to the lyrics. There will be other cinematic shots in this section for
example, recording the reflection of a puddle which is mirroring one of us performing
and perhaps dropping something into the puddle to get a ripple effect to then transition
36. STRUCTURAL BREAKDOWN
These shots will be followed by visuals of two st bernese mountain dogs with heavy
chains on. They will be filmed from low angles to portray intimidation, I will gather
various shots of them barking, jumping about, drooling and walking about in general as
well as shots of them in front of the car/cars. It will then cut back to one of the previous
locations maybe the abandoned building with more performing from me and harry as
well as more cinematic shots, things like matches getting struck as well as visuals of
smoke and various other things, in addition to this in the abandoned building i would
like to use a green screen to give the effect of me sat down levitating in the air, I will
also use motion tracking to give the effect of blood spraying onto a wall. To transition
out of this section of the video I will place green card over the lenses of sunglasses for
green screen effect, I will then zoom into this and transition into another shot. Will then
cut between more of the previously used locations with more performing to the lyrics
with low angled shots. It will be coming to the final seconds of the video when I have
used all of these shots so will cut between previously used locations once again with
low angled shots and various cinematics.
37. SHOT LIST
Your shot list should contain the sequential breakdown
of what you need to shoot for your video
It should work in partnership with your storyboard
It will be your working document when you film
It should contain the shot number, scene number, shot
description, framing and action you will see
It should also have information on performers in the
scene and other props, etc
Shot list template is on Blackboard in the pre-production
folder.

Information and images of your location[s] for filming
You should have address details, clearance/premissions
for filming, recce photos and floorplans [including
camera, equipment and cast/crew layouts]
Where possible, have a plan B fallback location option
Assess each location for any issues and suggest
solutions
43. LOCATIONS
The white horse/sutton bank is located, Low Town Bank Rd, Kilburn,
Thirsk YO61 4AN and is roughly a 15 minute drive from my house.
There are some possible issues that could go wrong when filming, for
example the weather, if the weather is bad we might have to abandon
filming and come back on another day. Something else that could go
wrong is that people might ruin our shots by walking in front of the
camera which could be really annoying as I am wanting to film in the
car park so I can get the white horse in the background which will look
good on the video. We will need to take all the filming equipment as
well as props and costumes with us to ensure that we do everything we
need to correctly.
Abandoned buildings located in thirsk at stoneybrough lane, there are
some potential issues that would need to be solved before filming at
this location, for example I will need to ensure that I am allowed to do
so by the rightful owner. I will also need to make sure there is nothing
hazardous there that could cause damage to either the persons
involved or the filming equipment.
I have been to this location on countless times and the owner has never
had a problem with us being there and on one occasion said it was fine
that we were there just to not cause anymore damage than there is
already
44. LOCATIONS
The fly over bridge located above the a19 in thirsk, there are some potential
issues involved with this location, for example no one will be allowed near
the barrier edge at risk off falling onto a main road, we are fully within our
rights to film at this location as it is identified as a public space. The only
other issue I can see being a problem is if the weather is bad we will most
likely have to abandon filming and come back at another time.
This stretch of road located roughly 2-3 mins away from my house
is where I intend to get drone shots of the cars driving, there is very
Little road traffic here as the only people who really use this back
Lane are the people who live on this stretch and farmers who use
This to transport goods, it is rare to see more than one or two
Cars down there at a time. There are no real issues I can think
of with this location.
45. LOCATIONS
There is another stretch of road that would be perfect for
drone shots, it is located on Wass bank road. The road itself
is quite windy and is surrounded by a dense woodland. I plan
to get drone shots of the car driving along the road as well as
the woods themselves.
This location is roughly 15/20 mins from my house and will
Not be a problem to get to.
Shooting location
46. RISK ASSESSMENT
Risk Assess each separate filming location using the
table in the camera H&S PP on Bb as a staring point
Completing a generic filming assessment would be a
start, then you can add specialist/site specific risks as
you progress your production
Remember, a Risk Assessment is an ongoing document,
you should evaluate if anything changes in production
and when you put control measures in place
You should add the table to each call sheet for each
location
47. RISK ASSESSMENT
Sutton bank/the white horse: there are many risks to take into account such
as cliff edges, cyclists on footpaths, lose stones and rocks could fall down
and falling into the lake.
Abandoned building: limited risks but some include, broken glass, sharp
objects, loose rood tiles and bricks, potentially others being there at the
same time.
Fly over bridge: some of the risks would involve falling of the bridge, been
sensible near the railings as parts could be lose.
Country road: other vehicles however unlikely and there is passing points,
don’t drive to fast, don’t walk on the road.
Wass bank road: other vehicles traveling on the road, keep speed down,
don’t walk on the road
Equipment: must be very careful when handling camera equipment as
someone could drop and it would smash, be careful with the tripod as if not
secured properly it could topple over with the camera on top, also the legs
might give way or snap. Be careful with what you attach the go pro to.
Cars; be careful of speed, especially on country roads, careful of the
cameras.
Smoke grenades: I will NOT be using smoke grenades as they have been

50. PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
Provide an outline of what you will do on which days
during production
You should broadly plan to the following structure:
- 2 weeks pre-production
- 1 week filming [plan for up to 2 days]
- 2 weeks editing [essentially 2 days for every day you
filmed]
51. SCHEDULE
I have had two weeks pre production for this project which I think I
have used effectively, I have a strong outline of what it is I want to do I
now just have to put things in place to do so.
I will be filming for three days In total, the 16th, 17th and 18th . The
Wednesday of filming will consist of me meeting up with my mate
Willem and his drone to gather cinematic drone shots. Some shots I
plan to take include, the two cars driving together on an open country
road and continuous shots of the lake and the surrounding woods.
On the Thursday me and harry will be meeting up and filming at
various locations such as the woods, the fly over bridge and potentially
abandoned buildings. We will try to gather as much useful footage as
possible so we have a large pool to choose from when it comes to
editing. We have ourselves a challenge as we have both decided to use
the same song and filming in a similar way so we will have to make
sure we do not use the same shots as we could get done for
plagiarism.
The Friday I will once again be meeting up with harry as well as cam
this time to gather more footage. This day will be used to film
anything/anywhere we haven't filmed yet
I will be editing for roughly two weeks, which should be sufficient time
to cut everything down and produce my final video, I plan to use all
class time as productively as I can to ensure that I am happy with my
