This bike is similar to the bike that I will be using in my music Video. The bike I will be using will be in white. I believe it will add a more vintage feel to my video. My artist will be seen to ride the bike in the location shown below. I want my artist to ride the bike very elegantly. I will get shots of the bike as she rides it to the final destination which will be of the pier near the river humber and on Hessle forshaw. The camera shots for following the bike will be a tracking shot and extreme long shots. this showing that she is travelling and that she is going to go somewhere.
This is the location for part of my music video, It is the Hessle foreshore near the Humber Bridge, I will be doing my filming here during a sunny morning or afternoon as the sun reflects off the river and gives it an almost magical look to it. This will be during the travelling scene when she is riding her bike to the river pier. I will be closely monitering the tide because in the picture you can see the rocks and the pebbles but this is when the tide is out. I want my artist to be able to walk freely down onto the pebbles, so this will be closely monitored.
This is the Humber Pier were the ferries used to transport people across the Humber when the Humber bridge was not in existence. This is a lonely and desolate place, were the hustle and bustle of people used to be but now it is a place were not many people go. This is why I have chosen this scene to be the ending of my video, It is to symbolise a changing of mood and tranquillity.
These are the kind of dresses that I want my artist to wear during the shoot, they are both fashionable and also symbolic. As you can tell these famous actresses wear this certain type of dress. It is neither long or short showing a sign of femininity but also a sign of rebellion. They are not worn with anything else which is simplicity which I aim for with my Costume. But white also Symbolises Innocence which will be seen in my music Video. My artist will also wear a minimum amount of makeup.
Unfortunately my pride and joy has had to be sent off for repairs so instead of having the bike I will be using my artists car. I don't think it will make much of a difference to my narrative, but I have had to incorporate the car into my Narrative. The car is cool and new and also is a mode of transport which was one of my main key ideas that the artist needs to be seen moving and travelling. I will be shooting from the passenger side and hopefully get some point of view shots.
I want my music video to also be appealing to wider audiences, as music videos tend to be in the city but I want to break this tradition and choose a more alternative location and this was a country lane. as I do not have the bike no more it has to be able to fit a car down it. I want the road to be full of hedges and greenery to show that my artist is getting away from society. Using traditional English settings also will appeal to audiences from different countries as they like English heritages.
This is Mel, She will be the actress in my Music video. I picked Melanie because she does drama both academically and also professionally. Choosing my artist was one of the most crucial things that I needed to think about. I believe Mel offers so much potential for my music video. I did some test shoots with Melanie to see if she was up the standard of my music video and I believe she is. I wanted an actress who could uphold a performance whilst showing emotion. Melanie is also the same age as my target audience. I have told Mel that she will need to wear a Pacific dress code and also not be able to wear makeup. I told her that she was wear light makeup but to make it look as if she had been sleeping, giving her a look of innocence, natural beauty and also a sign that she has been drinking on a night out. Mel is very beautiful and in fit shape like most of the performers in music videos. I will be working closely with Melanie on the performance I require her to do in the music video but also what kind of emotions I want to see from Mel. I believe I have chosen a good actress to star in my music video.... (4 days later update) Mel has found a white dress which fits with my specification. If you look at the images above of the three dresses it is the same shape as picture 3 but has the same pattern and look as picture 2. She has also got the flat shoes for the shoot. I have told Mel also to wear only a little amount of Jewelry
This is the kind of look that I want Mel to have for the shoot. This look symbolises innocence and natural beauty. It also depicts on how society does not usually see girls. I want Mel to look as if she has had a heavy night out, so the use of makeup and performance is key to making this clear to the audience. I have told Mel not to wear foundation but wear a heavy use of eyeliner but then lightly smudge it so it looks like this image. Hair will have to be wild and out of control, this will be done by the use of lots of hairspray. I believe that this look will create more of an intense and emotional feel with the audience. I will be using many close up shots of Mel during the recording of the video. I have taken into account that makeup, costume and hair will take time before the shoot so I have incorporated this into my schedule for the day of the shoot.
