W/C 19th September

This week I have began to mind map the design inspirations in terms of similar music videos, location idea's, props and costume etc.

My main inspiration in terms of similar music video is Beyonce - irreplaceable. This video has inspired me the most because the storyline in the video is extremely similar to the story line in the song that I have chosen. Also, the video is set at home location and features the boyfriend being kicked out of the house.


I have also been looking back at the resource audit and the location reece I previously created and thinking more deeply into where I am going to film the video. I know I will be filming it at both a studio location and also a outside location, however now I am also certain about where exactly I will be filming. I am going to film at my friend Charlotte Urry’s house for the outside as she has huge gate outside her house which will make the video look more like the house belongs to a famous pop star, compared to a house that is on a busy road for example. However, for the inside shots I am mostly likely going to use my own house as I have a dressing room which will be useful for when I am doing shots in the mirror.


I have not completely decided what costume I will have my actors in, however I am thinking of using the beyonce video as something to copy and go along a similar route. However, in the Beyonce video, she looks glamorous, but for my video I am thinking of having the actress in home comfy clothing. The male actor will look very similar to how the male actor looks in my video inspiration.


I have now decided on the main actor and actress, who are Michael Zara and Shanice Angol.
