Music Video: Shot lists & schedule

SHOT LIST

Basically, our music video will be faced paced & visually stunning, but without a narrative. Therefore, we know ourselves that the actual filming will be abstract & casual. We made a storyboard of the main, important shots that will define the video. Shots such as the mid-shot of Mr. Bones, or wide angle shot f the band playing. We will use a variety of different lengths and angles, but always bring the focus back onto that initial mid-shot to keep the video grounded & maintain a sense of space & physical orientation. Also, this is our first time making a music video. We cannot truthfully say whether a shot will look effective or not. This is another reason we will keep the shooting schedule more casual than last year. 

High angle - I took some shots of the band stood on a chair while they were all lying down on the mattress.

Wide angle - In the drama studio we created a set up with the lights, band and science equipment. In order to get it all in one frame we needed wide angle shots. 

Extreme close-ups - A few of the shots we took from the dilating eye, microscope and some of the lighting shots looked a lot better being extreme close ups.

Medium and close-ups - Most of the general shots of the TV smashing and other shots of the bands were mediums and close-ups, we used this as it functioned better together as they were quick shots, where as we gave longer for more of the artistic angles. 

There were multiple components to consider when we filmed. It wasn't just the four band members we needed to take into account, but also the availability of the south drama studio at school, the science department needed to know when and where we were using their equipment and the music department in order to use the amps and drum kit, alongside other members of staff and people who might be affected because of us using the space and resources.
