The document provides planning details for the production of a music video. It includes instructions on visual planning through pre-visualization, storyboarding, and developing a shot list. Examples are given for a concept board and structural breakdown of the video. Locations and roles for cast and crew are outlined. The visual plan involves shots of a character wrongly accused in court, breaking down in a prison cell, escaping with friends, and fleeing by plane. Filming is scheduled for a college studio and field with backup plans in case of issues.

Stage 4 Music Video Planning and pre-production YOUR NAME HERE
Visual Planning
Pre-Production: Visual Planning • This section is concerned with the visual planning of your music video • You should use this section to develop the sequencing or your video, establish the relationship between the visuals and the track itself and create a structure for you to follow when filming • It is important that you ‘pre-visualise’ the video before you make it; it will make filming and production a more streamlined process • The following tasks are part of your visual planning • Pre-visualisation and concept boards • Storyboarding • Shot list
Pre-visualisation/Concept Boards • Tool for exploring the direction and visuals • Provides inspiration and information for the “look & feel” • Presents key moments in your video • A means to sketch/plan ideas • Information on colour/lighting • Defining the “mise-en-scene” • Include as much here as you like, but keep it relevant to the production, the following slides have been left blank for you to approach in your own way, add more as you need to • Extension suggestion: edit a short sequence of clips that have inspired or influenced your video [similar to this: http://io9.com/5941145/this-directors-video-pitch-for-hunger- games-might-be-better-than-the-real-movie]
Concept board Wrongly accused is in court for a crime he didn’t commit He gets angry and upset. He breaks down in the cell. Two people come to prison and help him escape. They get him out and run to the airport They run into the airport. They get on a plane and leave the country. FOREVER!

Structural breakdown • Breakdown your track into it basic sections [e.g. intro, verse, chorus, verse, etc] and apply broad visual ideas to each section • You can use this as the master template for your production, then add more shots to each section when you develop your full visual plan
Structural breakdown – 1/3 Section [e.g. verse, chorus, bridge, etc] Approx duration What happens, visual elements, shots Notes of technical aspects/requirements Start of Song 5-10 seconds There will be four different shots, looking at the characters in the court room. The shots will be playing in time with the music. The final shot needs to zoom in and out of the prisoners face so it plays in time with the music. 1st chorus 30 seconds The judge sends the accused to prison for life. The Wrongly accused (now prisoner) is shocked and asks why. 2nd verse 40 seconds The prisoner is in his cell and breaks down.
Structural breakdown – 2/3 Section [e.g. verse, chorus, bridge, etc] Approx duration What happens, visual elements, shots Notes of technical aspects/requirements 2nd chorus 30 seconds Two people sneak into the prison and look for his cell through the windows. They find his cell and free him I need to draw a cell window in Photoshop. Bridge They start running to the prison exit.
Structural breakdown – 3/3 Section [e.g. verse, chorus, bridge, etc] Approx duration What happens, visual elements, shots Notes of technical aspects/requirements Chorus They luckily escape and run to the ‘airport’ This needs to be filmed with a green screen I an image of an airport entrance for editing. End of music They reach the airport, get on a plane and flee the country I need a video of a plane taking off – I either find a video on YouTube or go to an airport and video one taking off.
Storyboarding • Your storyboard should bring your idea to life • Provide an idea of the sequencing of you video • Provides a basis for production • Suggested online storyboard creators are: • https://www.storyboardthat.com • http://www.pixton.com [very complicated] • http://www.storyjumper.com [allows you to insert your own images] • Alternatively, hand draw or photograph your storyboard and scan or copy to insert it onto your slides • There are lots of tips collected together on Blackboard!
Storyboards A teenage boy (on the right) is in court for a crime that he didn't commit. (The witness is the guy on the left) The judge has no choice but to send him to prison for life as there is no evidence saying he is innocent. The Wrongly accused (now prisoner) is locked in his cell. He puts his head in his hands and breaks down. They find his cell, and tell him they're helping him escape. Two of his friends sneak into the prison looking for his cell. They run out of the prison and start heading to the airport.
storyboards They continue running to the airport. The prisoner stumbles, but his friends get him up and they continue running. They reach the airport entrance. I'm using the hospital entrance as the airport entrance because I couldn't find a proper airport entrance scene. It was the closest scene to an airport entrance. The characters facial expressions mean they're out of breath. They get on a plane and flee the country.
Shot List • Your shot list should contain the sequential breakdown of what you need to shoot for your video – it is both a creative tool for planning and practical tool for filming • It should work in partnership with your storyboard • It will be your working document when you film • It should contain the shot number, scene number, shot description, framing and action you will see • It should also have information on performers in the scene and other props, etc • Shot list template is on Blackboard in the pre-production folder.
Shot list
Task 3.2 Organisational Planning
Production Group Info • Include names, contact info, and defined roles at difference stages of production, using a table is suggested Characters Played by Court Judge Ben Wincup Witness Will Reid Defendant/Prisoner Harry Adkins Pennington Two friends Will Reid and Ben Wincup
Location information • Information and images of your location[s] for filming • You should have address details, clearance/premissions for filming, recce photos and floorplans [including camera, equipment and cast/crew layouts] • Where possible, have a plan B fallback location option • Assess each location for any issues and suggest solutions
Locations Where Address When Studio York College Friday Week 4 & Tuesday Week 5 Field York College Tuesday Week 5 Field I want to use the field for the ‘running to the airport scene’ because there’s lots of space and it will be the easiest place to film people running. People might be using the field making it difficult to film because people might/will get in the way, or it might be too cold/wet to use. Plan B If the big area of the field isn’t available, I will use a smaller area of it. Or if it’s too cold/wet, I will find somewhere that safer (not slippy) and on concrete.
