Storyboard

This is our story board. We put a lot of thought into our music video and made sure it appealed to our target audience. We have had many ideas and this was our final idea which we decided to produce. We are using many close up's and medium shots. We have also decided to use high angled and low angled shots, we have used these to show our protagonists as superior and inferior at certain points of the music video. The high angled shots will mainly be used when the protagonists are taking cocaine so show they are feeling superior to anyone else. The music will kick in after the 4th shot and once the music starts, there will be excessive use of split screens and cut shots to show the minds and the feelings of Fallon and Thom. We will be using slow motion, point of view shots, blurred images, birds eye view shots and motion shots (camera jumping). There will also be use of diagetic and non-diagetic sound.

Shot One: Introductory shot, vinyl going clockwise from above. A birds eye view shot, medium/long shot. At this point no music will be played. This shot will be black and white

Shot Two: Close up on the name of the song. Still a birds eye view shot, at this point, our character will be placed on the vinyl and fighting against the speed of the vinyl to represent their state of mind. Black and white shot and no music.

Shot Three: Medium shot of our characters going around trying to fighting the speed. Still no music being played and black and white

Shot Four: Close up/Extreme close up of our characters on teh vinyl. We may be changing this shot and getting a low angled, side view, extreme close up of the vinyl going around with the niddle on the disc. Black and white shot and no music being played.

Shot Five: The music starts at this point, cut shots will be very quick, 2/3 seconds each of the giutar playing. An extreme close up of fingers and strings. This shot will be when the colour starts to kick in as well but it will be a bit distorted.

Shot Six: Close up shot of Fallon, our protagonist female, getting ready for the night. The camera will be positioned by the side of her. This shot will have colour but will be slighty distorted.

Shot Seven: Another cut shot lasting upto 2/3 seconds. Medium shots of people outside the club/pub, drinking and smoking. This sets the scene for where our video will take place and the audience starts to know what might happen in the video.

Shot Eight: Medium shot of our male protagonist, Tom, getting ready for his night out. This shot will also be a cut shot, every quick shot, around 3/4 seconds.

Shot Nine: Back to the extreme close up of the guitar playing and the strings. This will be a quick shot as well as the editing has to keep up with the pace of the video which will resort in fast paced editing.

Shot Ten: Extreme close up of our female character putting red lipstick on. We will edit this to speed it up and also cut out some frames to make it jumpy so it pushes the conventions of a typical music video.

Shot eleven: A long shot of the club, high angled. Fast paced shot to meet the fast paced editing.

Shot Twelth: A medium shot, lowish angle of Tom sitting at the table, picking up a £20 note and taking some cocaine. There will also be close up's of the cocaine and Tom's fingers around the money.

Shot Thirteen: Last shot of the guitar, extreme close up of the fingers and strings.

Shot Fourteen: Close up of cocaine on the table in our female protagonists room with just her arm and hand coming in and out of shot. Close up of her taking the cocaine.

Shot Fifteen: Our video know goes into split screens. This is to show the minds and night out off our two protagonists. Low angled shots as they walk into the shot and away from it to the club, this is so we can hear the shoes on the ground. THe lighting will be low key lighting as it is at night.

Shot Sixteen: Split screen continues. Point of view shot of Tom drinking and a low angled, close up shot of Fallon smoking.

Shot Seventeen: Point of view shot from Fallon walking into the toilet and talking to her friend. At the same time, we have a birds eye view shot of Tom sat down against the toilet with a roll up next to him.

Shot Eighteen: High angled shots of them both standing at the side looking spaced out with people moving around them. This will be edited in final cut where we will speed the people around them up and make them hazy.

Shot Nineteen: Fallon is dancing but still looking spaced out while the dancers around her are going to be edited in final cut to speed them up, this will be a medium shot. Tom is stood by the side looking onto the dance floor also looking spaced out. This will be a medium shot, low angle.

Shot Twenty: Fallon to outside smoking, point of view shot. All you see is the cigerette and some of her friends in as it is coming from Fallon. In the other split screem, there is a low angled close up shot of Tom taking some more cocaine in the toilets.

Shot Twenty One: Point of view shot from Fallon walking to the toilet, dumping into people by accident. Tom is leaving the toilets at the same time, this is also a point of view shot. Tom is shaking which makes his image distorted, showing the effects of the cocaine.

Shot Twenty Two: This is when Tom and Fallon dump into each other and it becomes a two-person frame. Both are point of view shots until they dump into each other and the split screen becomes one screen again.

Shot Twenty Three: The screen splits again and they go into opposite screens. There is a point of view shot used by Tom showing him smoking and a low angled, close up of Fallon taking some cocaine in the toilets.

Shot Twenty Four: Extreme close up of Fallon's and Tom's eyes slowly closing. The screens change from being completely black to opening again.

Shot Twenty Five: The screens are both black now to show the audience that they have both blacked out. Extreme close ups and low key lighting is used.
