1. Post Production
Story Board
Post production on left hand side and Original story board on
right hand side.

2. 1. On the day, we came up with different variations that we wanted to include with
the post it notes. As well as using our original idea of having the time and date we
also added the love interests address on a post it note, to continue the stalker traits.
2. This shot remained the same to the original as a point of
view shot.

3. 3. When producing our original storyboard, we were not entirely certain
of the doll’s equipment that we would be using. We therefore knew on
the day of filming that we would want to show the girl playing with the
doll’s items to mimic the boys actions. When filming we thought it would
be a good idea for the girl to manipulate similar objects to the boy so that
when edited these would correspond.
4. It was only during editing, that this shot
was matched to follow shot 3 and both the
girl and the boy’s actions correspond in the
sequence. From the way in which the
sequence is edited, it is clear that the actions
of the girl represents the boys actions and
transition.

4. 7. When it came to filming, we had a general
shot of showing the boy shaving in the
bathroom. However we improvised on the
day with additional shot of him putting the
shaving foam on and then a shot of him
shaving in the following shot.
8.
9. This shot remained exactly as
planned as we have the boy walking up
to the camera, effectively looking into
the camera like it is a mirror.

5. 10.
13. Instead of having three candles
11. when filming we choose to use only
one so that the shot of the match being
lit could be instantly followed by the
lighting of the candle. One candle
therefore emphasise the romantic
atmosphere the boy is attempting to
create

6. 14. We focused on the placement of each individual
object more than intended so that when edited
each item would build up the picture of his tidiness
demonstrating his personality, when placed one
after another.
15. This shot was slightly altered as we had
originally intended to show the boy waiting by
the front door only from behind however on
the day we thought it would be appropriate
the show his emotion as he waits.
16. We have then cut back to the boys final
preparations and choose to have the boy
pouring icing sugar on the cake. This method to
decoration for the cake was decided on the day
however before filming we did know that we
wanted to show him decorating the cake.

7. 17.
Remained
the same
18. When editing we choose to
cut back to the boys emotion
after showing the text
message. This was therefore to
clarify the boys progressive
anger as it is made evident to
the audience that his date is
late
19.

8. 20. When editing we decided to show a
shot of the doll waiting at the table for
the date to represent that the dolls
actions are happening to him. From the
shot of the boy in reality followed by the
shot of the dolls its is clear that the boy
as been stood up.
21. Cut
to the
boy
looking
at the
time
22. Cut back
to the post it
note of time
the date is
meant to
arrive

9. 23. Following this we have a shot of the boy
throwing his jacket on the floor as a result of
his anger. This was thought of on the day.
24. After completing a first draft there were
gaps in our piece so we filmed additional
footage. We therefore choose to add more
parts of the boy outside after his reaction to
the previous events.
25. It was only during editing that we choose to
have two destroying shoots of items relating to
the date together. We therefore choose to
have the shot of the toy table and chairs being
knocked down after the boy has thrown of his
jacket. When placed together these shots
therefore emphasise the boys anger.

10. 26. This shot was
additional to our
storyboard as we needed
more footage to fit the
song. We choose to have
the boy walking to a
location which is later
clarified at the end of the
music video.
27. Cut to the boys anger
then cut to a point of view
shot 28. These shots where
brought together during
editing by a match on
action shot.

11. 28. On our original storyboard
we had a really broad image of
‘cake destruction’. We were
uncertain of how this would
translate however we knew we
wanted to show the boy
destroying the cake. On the day
we choose to use a low angle
shot to heighten his aggression
and to have the cake thrown in
the direction of the camera.
29. Cut to boy walking outside
and then return to the boy inside
the house falling back onto the
floor 30. It was only on the day
that we choose to have the layout
of the table in the shot as the boy
falls back crying.

12. 31. Remained exactly
as planned.
32. When editing the
beats show two
bangs and
highpoints in the
music which
fitted perfectly to
the boy banging
on the sink. It
was therefore
only during
editing that we
choose to match
this shot to the
two beats in the
music

13. 33.
34. This shot was additionally thought
of during post production as we
filmed extra footage. We therefore
choose to show the boy effectively
ruining his shrine of the girl as part of
the process of destruction.

14. 35. This shot was originally going to
be a closing shot for our music video
of having the door slamming however
we choose to add more to the
storyline after this shot.
36. Boy walking down the street. Shot
from Behind. Appears somewhat
silhouetted as we choose to film this
in the evening.
37. Choose to use 2 jump cuts to
speed up the pace of his walking but
to also indicate the consequently the
boy is walking a far distance. This was
thought of during post production as
we realised we needed additional
footage.

15. 40.
41. During post production, we choose, to have the
post it note of where the girl lives lightly over the shot
of the boy arriving at the girls house as a clear
indication of where the boy has been walking to.
42. This was not planned however we choose to show
the boys arrival at the girls house and showed a long
shot of the boy standing at the gates of her house
which portrays his stalker characteristics.

16. 43. The boy further walking to the second location
was only though of during post production. We chose
to use a medium shot of the boy walking directly
towards the camera.
44. It was only during editing that we choose to match
another shot of the boys footsteps in order to indicate
that he is travelling a long distance.
45. The Final break of the doll then indicates that his
character is ‘damaged’ and effectively broken.

17. 46.
This shot therefore makes it clear that the boy
has arrived at the girls house by showing the
image of the girl in front of the second
location. The music appears to calm down from
the climax of the music and it is clear that the
boy is seriously depressed!
47.
48. We then choose to have the boy checking
windows, portraying him as even more of a
stalker than we had originally intended.

18. 49.
We then choose to have the boy throwing
her picture into the river. This section has
connotations of suicide however it is
avoided. This shot is calmed with the
shot that follows to somewhat relieve the
audience as the feel sorry for his
character and the emotional damage that
he is going through.
50. We were filming into the late evening
on the second day of filming which
worked to our advantage as the dark shot
of the boy from behind shows him
walking into the darkness somewhat
demonstrating that the boy ha entered a
different state of mind. Following this we
have the boy fading into the distance.

19. 51. This shot of the boy flicking the
broken head away we only chosen during
editing and appears creepy and eerie but
effectively demonstrates that the boys
character is ‘destroyed.’
52. Choose to end our music video with
the boy knocking at the girls door. This
differs greatly from our original story
board of ending with the boy texting the
girl and asking where she is.
