Storyboard

This is my storyboard. The storyboard has been showed to all the band members and we have gone into great detail about the scenes and the long solos which have not been showed at the end of the song for 20 seconds. The band needed to see this as they needed to grasp the time frame they will be working with after showing this and speaking to the band we now as a group have a better understanding on what is needed and now feel confident we can create a successful video.

How To Create My "Moving Art"

I have done some research into how to create my moving art in my video. When i say moving art I'm really just elaborating on a faster stock motion idea. The moving art scene will be the lead singer smashing up a guitar looking very "the who-esk" fitting perfectly in with my rebellious genre. i have been toying around with the idea of using a stills SLR camera to create this but when i tried to make a mock up of this i found the camera could only shoot one frame per second which would mean my band member would have to smash this guitar up very slowly almost in slow motion which may take away the realistic effect i wanted to create. Instead i will be shooting with a video camera which can shoot up to 25 frames per second and then taking the film into a program where i can view each frame separately and then i can take out frames where i want to to give it that jumping feel making this different to stock motion as it will be quicker and in my opinion look more sophisticated

Informing the Cast

I have spoke to the my characters who will play the band about dates and times. We have set up a number of dates which does not interfere with their work or college hours and is perfect for filming.

The Lead Singer has been given a lyrics sheet which he will be learning and the other two band members have been asked to bring their own instruments. As the drummer will be playing on homemade drums the band have come together with items to make the drums out of this past week and we have successfully made a home made drum kit. Communication has not been a problem as i have been able to use email, text message, phone calls and the social networking site facebook. The location has been set we will be using the location of my own dining room and the clee hill the band are aware of this and transport will not be a problem as all the band members drive.

I have shown the cast members my storyboard and spoken with them about the video and there seems to be a great understanding with everyone about the high standards which will need to be met with making this video.

The band members are well aware of what they will be wearing in the video as i have chosen to use two different outfits between the live performance and the narrative part of the video.
