Following Production Processes P3 (d)

Following Production Processes P3 (d)
in this posting i will be displaying and explaining how i followed correct production processes.

following production processes 

deciding on the track was a very hard decision, I wanted to produced a fast paced, stricking music video that could include many different filming and editing techniques. I chose 'come with me now' as It already had a strong storyline that could be represented through the music video, and the song has diverse  sections that would be able to be divided into separate ares of filming, enabling me to have two separate styles of film running coherently,


The planning stage was one of the most vital sections of the whole music video, listening to the song and deciding what it meant and creating a new concept idea for a music video was the most difficult factor of the overall production. starting with the understanding of the song, coming up with ideas which could easily tell the storyline within the song was important , this helped give me the first script, helping me produce ideas, and also filming techniques and styles used in the finished product.

How To Achieve The Final Product

After coming up with my initial plans, I begin with the development of a in depth design which will  enable me to make a professional standard video. The planning of the music video is essential for the success of the video, enabling me to know the way I should present the theme, as well as forming the foundational structure of my music video.


Storyboarding enabled us to came up with ideas and add more depth to the story, which for most of the narrative was the lyrics , and because the audio has a lot of narrative already listen to it, it was easy to form a good plan for a video that will back up the track. Also I analysed the words to make a script, I then based my narrative on it . The comments on the script put more detail into the concept , providing me with more ideas to take my music video into the next stages, which is filming.

Planning the shot list allows me to provide step-by-step instructions on my filming and in what order. This document allows me to stay organised which makes sure the video will be top quality because of in depth planning and organisation. and therefore improving the  narrative of the final product.

RECCE
is a vital part of my music video. going to locations and making sure the location is appropriate for the video before actually filming there. If the location isn't suitable it might make poor footage due to disorganisation, and If i got to an unsuitable film location i will then have,to relocate and jeopardise the quality of my final music video as i will then have to rush the filming to meet the deadline. Also it helped me to instigate initial thoughts on the shots I would be taking, allowing me to plan camera angles, lighting and what footage would look good in different locations.


Mise-En-Scene was in the music video to create emphasise and create a running theme for the music video. For the band and instrumental scenes, I ensured that all clothing used in shoots where the same through out to keep continuity.



I also have to organise and choose the correct equipment to use for my video. After creating my shot list, I had a good theory of what lenses I will need to make the most professional looking video. the use of a 50mm lens for some clips allow me to create a 'human eye effect', giving the video a true perspective of what is occurring in the shot, allowing me to keep them engaged and involved with the music video.



Was My Concept Achieved

I think that my original concept was achieved by my final music video, following the narrative given by the lyrics, giving a well rounded, captivating round-up of selling his soul to the devil

Following Safe working practices P3 (c)

here i am displaying how I followed safe working practises I created this by using my risk assent and displaying how i changed and managed the risks 




jumping down stairs


as you can see in the middle of the film the main character is running and then jumping down stairs there was a risk that the character could fall when running and jumping we took this into account when deciding where to shoot this shot we decided on a corridor with carpet so that if he fell his landing would be cushioned we also used crash mats.
the shot below shows Gareth running down the hall way we had to clear the hall way before hand so he did't fall


Hit by a car crossing the road 
while crossing the road from the school to the path across the street there was a high risk that he would get hit by a car  this is because we filmed it in a high traffic area we tried to minimise the risk by filming during an off peak time in the day.


Little lighting increased risk of tripping 
because we where filming in the dark there is a moderate risk that we could trip over wires or other objects to minimise the risk we went out during the light and made sure the path was clear we also gave out flash lights to all the people working on the shoot this allowed them to see where they are going when not filming,

Lighting 
during some of the indoor scenes we needed to set up lighting this was to allow us to create a professional product we wanted to use lighting during the running scene  this added a new danger which was the wires we had to tape these wires down to reduce the chance of the actor falling over while running down the hall.
