2. The first scene in the media room will be used with green screen scene where the girls
will start to dance and mess around together but in the process of changing their outfits a
lot making it look like an instant change of clothes almost like magic
3. The next scene will consist of lots of balloons all in the air and stuck to the backdrop, all
over the floor to make it look like a pool of balloons. This will be used with the white
backdrop to make it look less mad with all the balloons going on.
4. The next scene will be just the girls dancing with each other and prancing round the
scene with glasses used for photo booths and party poopers. This is a very random
scene with random props
Special Requirements: (inc. details of props / costumes needed, preparation required)
 For the preparation of my shoot I will need the backdrop up in the media room, this will
include a green screen but will also need a change to the white backdrop.
 There will be several costume changes throughout my music video which will consist of
different outfits and different colour dresses.
 For another one of the scenes I will need 20-30 balloons to make the backdrop more
interesting and make it more fun.
 I will also need a wind machine. This will add a good, fun effect to the shoot and will look
good on the actors.
 In another scene I will need a chair for a good photo-shoot position for the girls to be in.
For another scene I will try and get my hand on some wigs and some photo booth
glasses that are big and silly. This will look like they are having fun too and while the
umbrellas are going off to make it look like the photos are being taken

4. Week 1: today I started my music video planning. I thought by getting all the planning out the way I will have more time
to complete my actual video. I felt there was a lot to do so I thought the best way to do it was by making a production
timeline. I organised how I am going to do it and when I should be completing the different tasks.
Week 2: this week I started completing all of my pre production documents. I started by filling out the actor release
forms, the call sheets for different locations, equipment borrowing, equipment list, location recce, location contracts,
personel details and the risk assessment. All of these things I could complete before even starting to film my footage.
Week 3: this week I started my draft proposal and my proposal. This was very time consuming and I needed to put a lot
of thought into it as I wanted to get a distinction for this unit. I started by doing a draft proposal and I did that in the form
of bullet points as I thought that was the best way to organise something that I wanted to write about in further detail.
Once I had finished that, I started on my proposal. I outlined different headings which is everything I needed to talk
about. Which included: description of intentions, outline of my music video, target audience, sound, costumes and
props, editing, cast, inspiring music videos, filming and distribution.
Week 4: this week I made a start of my concept ideas as it was going to take a long time to complete. I needed to do
some research into my song and lyrics and really make sure I know what my idea is. I created a power point that
consisted of inspiring music videos, mood board, my intentions of music video, equipment needed, scene ideas, outfit
ideas, hair and makeup ideas, song research, editing techniques and conventions, storyboard, mind map, song lyric
analysis.
Week 5: this was the first week that I went out and filmed. I firstly filmed in room 11 with Rebecca and it went well. I
filmed a lot of different shots of her singing to the song and the lighting I felt was very good. Once I had filmed I used
what I had so far and put it into premier pro and made a start of my video. I filled in the bits that I had and made a note
of what else I had to do to fill in the bits that I needed. I got the music track I was using from youtube and placed it into
premier pro
Week 6: this week I was creating my presentation that we had to present to the class. We had to basically just make a
powerpoint of what our music video is going to be like so my class mates know what to expect. It was being recorded
aswell. I presented to the class this week. Now that was out the way I could quite literally just focus on finishing my
music video.
Week 7: I still needed more footage to fill in some gaps so I filmed during my lesson with Rebecca. We used room 19
which had the photoshoot equipment in. I wanted to film Rebecca having a fake photoshoot so I put the yellow seat on
the white background and had Rebecca sit on the chair with loads of little balloons around her which looked cool. I also
filmed her with a grey background with bubbles all around her using a bubble machine but it didn’t look good with the
grey background so I decided not to use it.
Week 8: now I had filmed everything I needed, it was time to put everything together. Now it was starting to look a lot
better and more professional which I was happy with. Continued editing and adding cross dissolves and dip to blacks to
add that extra effect.
Week 9: I carried on editing my music video
Diary

5. Draft proposal
Description of my intentions-
Be and look professional- Looking at different professional music videos.
Have costume changes& different looks
I want to make it fun and not boring so the audience don’t lose concentration
Week 10: I still felt at this point that I needed more footage to make it that extra bit interesting. It was a late call but I
decided to go out and film Rebecca again. We went to an external location as all of my other shots were internal and it
looked really dull. We went to Eastcote house gardens which had a lot of pretty scenes that I could use. I brought them
back to school and added it onto my rushes log and added it to my music video and it looked a lot better than it did
before.
Week 11: editing my music video more and more to make sure everything had been filled with lots of different shots and
a shot isn’t too long.
Week 12: this week I had basically finished my music video I just had to make some final decisions. I got 2-3 peers to
watch it and say what they thought would make it better. They said that I need to add some adjustment layers and
colour correct it so I did that for every single shot and made sure it looked professional and not messy at all. I created
the shot list and rushes log documents which I could only do once I filmed everything.
Week 13: this was my final few days to really make sure that my music video was perfect. I made a few adjustments
that needed to be made just to make sure there is nothing wrong with my video. I rendered it out and printed all of my
pre production sheets off and burned my music video to a disk and then everything was complete after a long 13 weeks
of this particular task.

Outline of my musicvideo;
In mymusicvideo,Iam havinga numberof differentscene changes.The openingscene of my
musicvideowill be shotinthe dramastudio.The musicat thispointis slow soI feltthatif I did a
scene inthe dark it will make the musicvideolookmore mysteriousandgloomyandmake the
audience wonderwhatisgoingtohappenonce the musickicksin.inthe drama studiothe actors
will be gettingreadyforthe shootbydoingtheirmakeup.Eventhoughthe musicisslow,Iwant
the tempoof the editingtobe fastas I want to compare bothof the characters whoare doing
theirmakeupthe same andI will cutbetweenthembothduringthe shorttime atthe beginning.
The locationwill be all blackaroundthemwithone spotlightontheirface.Thatwill show the
audience tolookandfocuson theirface as theywill be doingtheirmakeupinthe mirrors
providedinthe dramastudio.Whenthe songbeginstokickin and getsmore upbeatandfaster,
the scene will change completelytoa differentlocationwhichwill be room19 whichisa media
room that consistsof the greenscreenandthe backdropswhichare blackand white.Throughout
the song I wantto have at least3-4 differentscenesthatwillcontainof differentpropsand

there will be lotsof balloons,around20-30 balloonsall overthe floorandthe characterswill be

15. musicvideo,tobe funand by doingthisitmakes the audience looklike thiscertainphotoshootis
a lot of fun.There will alsobe some bubble blowinginthisscene toaddthat extrastage.At this
pointthe musicwill be upbeatandfastso easiertomove aroundand dance to it. moreover,as
well ashavingthe ‘photoshoot’scene inmymusicvideo,inothermusicvideo’sthere is
sometimesadifferentsceneof apersonsingingthe songbutonlycertainlinesinthe song,for

Target audience:
The target audience formymusicvideoisgoingtobe forfemale youngwomenwhoare inthe age
range of 14-30. I feel thiswill be the righttargetaudience astwofamousgirlswhoare starringin a
musicvideo,will attractgirlswhoare bigfans of themand evenlookupto them.Howeveritsnot
to say there can’tbe anymale fansas some male characters will be bigfansof the girlsas theyare
prettygirlswhoa lot of boyswill like andevenfancy.
Sound:
My musicvideowill justsimplyconsistof non-diegeticsoundwhichwill be the soundtrackof the
songI am using.I won’tneedanydiegeticsoundinmymusicvideoastheyare justgoingto be
dancingand singingtothe song‘Poison’ByRitaOra. I feel thatthisisa goodsuccessful songto
use as the song starts outwitha slowtempo,throughoutthe songitgetsfasterand more of a
beatbuildsup.I have chosenthissongbecause itisveryrecentand wasreleasedinMay2015.
Because itis sorecent,youngerpeople wouldbe familiarwiththissongwhichiswhatmy

InspiringMusic video’s
I have manyvideo’sthatI have watchedwhichIthinkthat will inspireme inmyown.I wantto use
a lot of slowmotioninmymusic videowhichIhave watchedacouple of professional music
videosthatfeature slowmotion.A goodslow motionvideothatI have seenis‘CiaraI Bet’which

I have decidedtofilmin3 differentlocations.Ifeltthatbywatchingothermusicvideos,mostof
themlookmore interestingandeffective whenithasvariousdifferentlocationsinsteadof just
one.My original ideawastojust have 2 locationswhichwere bothgoingtobe filmedwhichwere
bothfeaturedinschool.Butas my ideaprogressedIthoughtbyhavinga locationthatis outside
will make itlookmore effective andwon’tgetboringinanyway.Alsoas bothof mylocationsthat
I am usingat school are bothblackwitha blackbackgroundandI feltthat itwouldlookcooler.
