Performance

Plan

My final music video will consist of a mix of narrative and performance footage. The narrative part will be made up of the story following the Girl and the Werewolf, and the performance part will show the Girl (who is the main artist) performing the song in a studio. Although my storyboards have only shown the narrative part, I plan to cross cut the narrative footage with the

performance footage in my final music video. Having two different elements to the music video will ensure it remains engaging to the audience

throughout the whole song. Including performance as well as the narrative would be expected by my target audience of Alternative Rock as a convention

of all Rock related videos is to see footage of the artist performing.

The Performance part of my music video will be filmed in the TV Studio at CCN. I plan to make the TV Studio look like a studio space for the artist is perform in. I want to make it

look quite simplistic so that the viewers attention is drawn to the artist. I plan on having a white backdrop and floor with lights standing either side of the artist. The only other prop I

plan to use is a microphone and stand for the artist to sing into.

I will use three different cameras when filming my music video in the TV Studio. This will allow me to capture footage of the artist performing from a variety of different angles and

use lots different shot types. I plan to defiantly film with long shots, mid shots and close ups, and film directly in front of the artist, as well from other directions around her. I will

defiantly film some footage using a low angle, as this will make the main artist look empowering. This is extremely important to include in my video as it shows that women in

the music industry, especially in the Rock industry can be strong, and in control without being sexually objectified.
