This document is a project proposal for a landscape-driven music video. It outlines the rationale, concept, research plan, evaluation process, bibliography, and production schedule. The rationale discusses skills developed in previous projects and how they will be applied. The concept is to create still and slow-motion shots of landscapes accompanied by a drone soundtrack. Research will include analyzing similar music videos and books on the purpose of music videos. Evaluation will involve ongoing reflections and a final self-assessment. The bibliography lists 10 potential sources including primary research interviews. The production schedule spans 16 weeks from initial proposal through presentation.

Project proposal title and date:
Landscape driven music video
Main area of activity:
Reference your medium you will mostly work in; Graphic design, Film, Photography,
Interactive/Video Game etc.
Filming
Rationale: 150 words approx.
Review your progress throughout the 2 years- what products have you made and what skills and
knowledge have you acquired? How will you use those skills?
What was your previous, similar production and how will it have a direct impact upon your project?
Over the past 2 years I have developed numerous skills in various different areas, including using
text and print to an effective level in which I can choose a specific style and font, keep it consistent,
match the subject of what I am doing’s vibes. I have created various film projects, however I
haven't fully explored the concept, in this project I hope to have filming days in which I will go out
and have a plan of what I want to film and also to film anything I see when I'm out that will look like
a good addition to my video. I want to explore my video skills however and develop a good sense
for what filters to use to achieve the look I want and have shown in my research. I would also like
to develop my audio skills because the project may require me to produce my own music for it.
Project Concept: 200 words approx.
What is the concept for your project and what are you going to make?
My concept for my project is to create a series of stills and slow moving forward shots of the
Yorkshire countryside and possibly Norwegian Mountain ranges and urban areas. I want to lean
more towards power stations, wind farms, and other colossal buildings that contrast with the
tranquil background and setting. This will be accompanied by a piece of either my own composing
of a slow and droning soundtrack, or a piece of classical music like Pier Gynt or Frederic Chopin
What research will you need to conduct and how will it help you make your project?
I have and will be researching music videos that follow the same visuals I aiming to create and
using them as inspiration for how I could make my own. I will be reviewing books that contemplate
on the existence of music videos and their purpose so I can challenge the fact of what I will be
making to make it seem right and suitable for the image and sound to match.
How will the project be evaluated and reviewed: 150 words approx.
How do you plan to evaluate the work? Reference conducting on-going evaluation (Production
Reflections) and your final self-reflection (Evaluation), analysing your work and its outcomes.
How will this process help developing your working practices as you continue with your
study/media career?
