Rough Cut


Above is a rough cut of my A2 coursework music video. In my final version of the video I intend to finish the storyline seen within the rough cut. Also I may re - shoot some of the clips I have used, either to sharpen them up or to make the video flow through it's narrative better, giving the audience the ability to understand what is actually happening during the story arc of the video. I may also tamper with colour slightly to give it a deeper effect, possibly making the blacks 'deeper' and the whites 'cleaner'. I also intend to change the font in the beginning of the video to make it more applicable to my chosen genre, I had began to notice that the font I originally used would have been more suited to either a "Heavy Metal" or "Alternative Rock" video. I would also like to include a higher shot count within the video, in contrast I would still like to keep the shots coming at a slow pace to fit in with the overall tempo of the song.

Major Influence for Music Video



When initially thinking of what I wanted from my music video, I often came back to how Dallas Green's video for Comin' Home looked. The slow pace was something I was very interested in alongside the feel of the video, it seems to have a 'lonely' feel about the video which is quite haunting.

Risk Assessment

Here is a list of things that could cause harm or in general should be avoided.

Possible Risk

1. Actors must be careful when filming in the recording studio.
2. Loose wires could be tripped on.
3. Be wary of lights overheating.
4. Water in the bathroom could affect camera equipment.

Resolution

1. Make actors aware of surroundings and possibly set a guide rope when not filming.
2. Use cable tidies when shooting.
3. Switch between lights when off camera.
4. Check taps before setting off to shoot.

Possible Font Choices














I am yet to decide completely on what theme I would like the album to be but at the moment I have 2 options to choose from. I can either have the song as part of a metal album and have it as a break away track often seen in albums of this genre, such as Bring Me The Horizon - 15 Fathoms, Counting. The other option I have is to theme the album around an acoustic band and have this as a single being released. The 2 options are shown from the types of font I am deciding over.
