Equipment we will use

Equipment
 
Technical equipment:
 
- Camera
-tripod
 
Costume and Make up:
 
- dark clothing, Burgundy, purple and black:
Leggings, simple top, make it simple because it will go well with the mood and the emotion because it'll allow the focus to be on narrative and the lyrics and not by the clothing.
- Natural with bright lipstick, because this will allow the make up to still be visible on camera and the lipstick will help because it'll make it stand out and show the feminine side.

Plan for Photoshoot, loctation incomplete 20.04.16

Shoot date and time: 8th May, Morning-Afternoon
 
Image Description: The video will be emotional and quite natural with lighting this is because the chosen song has emotion within in.
 
Shoot Location: Brighton, this is because the song that we have chosen, will be able to link to the beach theme and it'll help the narrative.
 
Model/person: Amelia, Paula, Ellie and Megan, all these people have agreed to take part in the video, it also allows us to make the video as best as possible because they are all interested in drama meaning they can interpret the lyrics well.
 
Lighting: Natural, outdoors, good weather, in order to get a clear and visible shot.
 
Costume: Casual clothing, because it allows the audience to see, that these are everyday problems, it also allows the video look as realistic as possible.
 
Plan of Shots:
 
 

REPRESENTATION & AUDIENCE

The ethos of the band, is happy and careless, this is because the video, is upbeat and has a catchy and bubbly tune to it, but on the other hand, the music video is quite careless and sad in the sense that the main character within the video, is feeling un wanted and isn't fitting in but she just accepts it which makes the story behind the song quite emotional and upsetting for the audience, this song represents mixed emotions. The beat of the song, will attract artists such as Sia, Zara Larsson, because they are quite upbeat artists.
 
The psychographic group is explorer. This means that the group, is full of energy and that they like new experiences and taking on challenges. Explorer highlights difference, sensation, adventure, indulgence and instant effect.
 
I think the targeted age for the group is 15-25 year olds, this is because I think that the beat will attracted that age group more because it is a happy beat and not too emotional and sad, I also think this because the message of the song is to allow people to realise that it is okay to feel out of place but not to let it control you to the point where you feel alone and as if you can't fit in, these are the common ages where people feel as if they aren't so able to fit in because they are just finding themselves and worry that won't fit in or be liked etc, the song is then made relatable to the audience in the sense that they can listen to the lyrics and read between the lines to find the hidden message behind it, the song could possibly help people become more confident as feel like they can fit in more.

Music Video

Our group for our music video, is a group of 4 friends: Amelia, Paula, Ellie and Megan. Amelia will be the main character throughout the video. They agreed to take part in this as they are interested in performing arts, they will be singing the chosen song and possibly performing also. The group will be available to complete the whole video.

The group we have chosen, aren't signed to any music record label, they are willing to take part in the filming of the video. The song that we have chosen, is 'Hide by a beach, Lana Del Ray', this is because it has a good story behind it that will work for the group to have emotion within and make it effective.
