Storyboard - part 1

This is the storyboard I did for the intro of our song; where there are no lyrics.

 

 

 

Finalising Our Music Choice

We wanted to use 'clean' version of Ciara's - 'Living it up' and so we tried cutting Nicki Minaj's part out in order to make it more suitable for our target audience of young teenage girls. We used the software Garage Band to fix this however  there was no way of making a clean cut and therefore we decided to use a different radio edit featuring only Ciara. 

We do plan to use Garage Band in the editing stage of making our music video to cut the end of the song.

Costume Ideas For Singer

We are still in the process of deciding what to dress our singer in in the different locations. We looked and some celebrities for some inspiration and these were our favourite outfits. The majority seem to be wearing some sort of leather clothing, weather that be a jacket or leggings/ trousers, so we thought to fit in with the conventions of other music videos for some of ours we could dress our singer in leather and also maybe ripped jeans. We still also need to decide on how she is going to have her hair, shoes and accessories!

Costume For Dancers (Tunnel)

 

For our second location of the dance sequence (the tunnel) we decided to dress our dancers in the classic black leotard and opaque black/ skin colour tights. Again we decided that our dancers would be wearing converse. 

Costume For Dancers (Stage)

After discussion we decided that for our first location of the dance sequence (the stage) we wanted our dancers to be wearing black leggings, a black crop top and converse. We wanted to dress them in quite basic clothes so as not to draw attention away from the singer.

Props

Here is a list of props that we are going to have in our music video:

1. Clear bowl of water/ food colouring die (for intro) 
2. Umbrella (dancing in the rain)

As our music video doesn't really tell a story and is mainly based around the locations it is set in and the dance scenes we can't think of that many props that we need. However, I'm sure that a few more will pop into our heads when it comes to filming on the day 

Lyrics breakdown (part 6)

I'mma live life to the fullest
I'll be speeding like a bullet
I'll be rolling like a train
I'll be dancing in the rain


For this part of our music video we were thinking of having our singer walking on the train station and 'dancing in the rain' with an umbrella at the train station to create a relationship between the lyrics and visuals
