Production Schedule

Original Proposal

The plan is to film a music video which successfully represents the narrative side of the song which the artist has conveyed through the use of lyrics. Alongside this, myself and Chloe have planned to incorporate several conceptual segments in order to convey the themes and motifs around the song, and this will be carried out predominantly using props and costume.

Schedule

• Initial dates for filming: 

• Prep: Tuesday 15th November 2016

• Final deadline for filming:

Tuesday 15th November 2016: Prep Day

Time: 13.50pm-4pm 

Location: My garden

Actor(s): Kate Sweatman 

Props/Costume: White background, black paint, glitter, bikini top and makeup. 

Equipment needed: Camera, tripod, white lights.

This is the very first day of the filming process and the aim is to begin filming for the conceptual parts of the music video. Within the conceptual section, our actor Kate will be standing in front of a white background, appearing nude lip syncing whilst having paint artistically thrown at her. 

We first started off by getting our actor ready for the shoot by doing her makeup and her hair to ensure that she looks the part. We focused on a dark eye makeup look but added some glitter to her eyes to make her look more relaxing. 

After finishing her makeup, she then got dressed in a bikini top so she would appear nude from the shot we would be filming. Once outside where we had set up, we had our actor sit down and focus the camera to make sure we would film the right shot, we did a practise run through of the song to make sure the first actual take could go to plan as well as possible.


Wednesday 7th December 2016: Location and Practise Shots

Time: 2-5pm

Location: St Mary's Island 

Actor(s): Holly Fagg

Props/Costume: camera, tri-pod

With travelling to our new location of St Mary's Island, we were able to walk past the docks and achieve a good view of the river and with the time of day it was, a good view of the sky being close to sunset.

Wednesday 16ty December 2016: Final Filming Day for Music Video

Time: 3-4pm

Location: Media Studio

Actor(s): Holly Fagg

Props/Costume: green screen, tri-pod, camera

The plan for this filming day is to complete the filming of the lip syncing for the performance element of our music video. As shown by our storyboards, we will film our actor Holly lip syncing the lyrics to the song Poltergeist into the camera therefore enabling us to cut and change which part of the lyrics we incorporate into the music video if need be. As shooting each try only takes around 3 minutes we aim to keep filming the lip syncing part until we get it to the standard we are happy with.
