Shooting Schedule

As I had several scenes to shoot for my music video which were all in different locations, I decided to record a shooting schedule which allowed myself and my cast to know when they were needed to film specific scenes. I have planned to shoot early, allowing of plenty of extra time these shooting schedule's to re-shoot any scenes or to do more filming.

 

Storyboard

A storyboard is a simple yet effective way of planning of music video. Below are 5 pages showing my initial ideas for the visuals and storyline of my music video. I chose to do my complete my storyboard by drawing my ideas for the music video every 5 - 20 seconds. This allowed me to have an exact idea of what I needed to shoot while filiming, so that I would not miss any necessary shots and I would have a wide variety of images for my music video. 

I became aware that the storyboard is a simple way of letting you know if you don't have enough ideas for the music video, or if you were repeating a specific shot or scene too many times. This was the first time I was able to put my ideas onto paper so it provided another opportunity to review them. A good music video has a strong storyline and is able to clearly present it to it's audience. 

Appearances: Ben Howard

Ben Howard in 2012 is an emerging artist and is likely to reach great success in the music industry in 2013, therefore identifying his target audience at this current point is difficult as it could potentially expand. I have also looked at the type of venues which he performed at, one of which is the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire in London this implies that Ben Howard's music is reaching large audiences as he is able to perform at some of the largest and well established venues in the country.

APPEARANCES 2012

In order to understand the scale of audiences which Ben Howard reaches as an emerging artist I decided to look at his appearances during 2012.

• Ben Howard's presence on his Record Company's website is strong
• They provide various social platforms where you can access or contact Ben Howard
• Simplicity is a key theme, the design of the web pages don't take away too much attention from the music

Pitch

I created this presentation to pitch my ideas for my music video. I briefly evaluate how my ideas contrast or are similar to Ben Howard's typical music videos. I also consider any problems which I may face in the process of creating my music video.
