James Blunt

Below is some photos of Jordan (Character) who is going to be performing the main leading role of the music video. I have also added a photo of solo singer James Blunt to show the impression and sort of look that I will be trying to give to Jordan in the music video. This is because of the sub-genre 'Indie Pop' that the music video is going to be so taking ideas from a well know artist such as James Blunt has helped me gain more ideas into how to make the mise-en-scene of the video to the best of my ability.

Filming

Here is an image I took of Oliver whilst shooting a clip for our music video. As you can see we have used a tripod so that the clip that we record is steady making it look a lot more professional as the motion of the video is a lot more fluent and realistic to the audience when they view the video. This will also make the editing process a lot easier and quicker if the filming is done to the best of our ability as we will have to cut a lot less out of the video during the editing stages. The reason to why our actor is looking downwards towards the alley to help show more empathy and make him look sad and make the audience know that he is thinking about his dog which has passed away.

Semiotics - Media Language

Here I have used pixton to talk about semiotics and what I have learnt about semiotics. I have conducted research on semiotics as I thought it is important as it will help with the development of the music video as it will allow me to understand more about what is going on within the music video and help Olly and I in terms of what we need to do to make our music video more professional and appealing to our target audience.

Weather Conditions

This is a table with the weather conditions that we want to have for these places whilst filming our music video scenes there. The reason to why I have created a table for this is so that when we go filming we can film at specific places depending on the weather on that day instead of waiting a week or two to be able to film at a specific place helping our organisation. This makes it easier and helps us save more time filming as we will know where to film depending on the weather that day. The only problem we may have is that it could be difficult to make sure our cast wears the right clothing depending on the day so we will have to let them know early enough to stop this from happening.
