Planning Storyboard for my Music Video

Image
Storyboard scenes 1-12 In my first scene actor #1 will be in the frame either wide shot or mid shot. Actor #1 will be holding a picture and a behind the back angle will be slowly be zooming into her closer.  In the second scene actor #1 will still be in the shot but only from the waist up. As the song is starting out the main part says "do you remember" this will be symbolized through the video as Actor #1 is remembering her night on September 21st. Frame number 3 will now have a up close shot of her hand. When the shot is up close you can now clearly see the two people standing in the picture. The picture is warm and colorful and looks as if it was at a dance. The photo is know extreme up close and is in the same position. As the video goes on you can see that the photo comes to life. This photo is now "moving" because Actor #1 had a flashback. In scene 5 you can now fully see actor #2. This actor is seen putting on a record for the music. Scene 5 is still up for d...

Genre Decision Blog

 After researching at least 2 genres in film, I have to best pick which mine would fit into. Because I am going with a more suspenseful theme I believe a thriller would have more relation than an action genre. Action movies include more fast pace and fighting scenes, while a thriller is more about the storyline in my opinion. Thrillers use more psychological tricks which I think I will use. By having further research and ideas of thriller it will be easier to film. I chose this for my opening sequence because the project is surrounded by suspense. My main two ideas were either, a family/ person trapped inside a "tv" or shown being watched through the other screen. Or,  a person realizing an identical copy of them is living not too far. Both ideas still need to be worked on but overall they have more mystery than action. Because I will be choosing this genre I can incorporate many of the elements. This includes low-key lighting, eerie music, and special effects. The darker mor...

My Pitch

Image
For my movie pitch, I want to go with a more suspenseful theme. This doesn't necessarily mean scary, but something that leaves the watchers interested. For my first pitch idea, I want to portray a family/ person trapped inside a "tv" or shown being watched through the other screen. The people being watched have no idea that someone is watching so they are doing stuff they normally would. For example, if I walk up to the TV and clean it, the people watching me either as a show or "spy", will see me from this view. This can portray a lack of power that one may realize they have. The suspense In this comes from the cluelessness throughout the person's life. It may choose them to rethink everything they have done as they are being watched 24/7.  If I do not go with my first choice idea my second choice will be a person realizing an identical copy of them is living not too far. For example, the actor may be driving and then pulls up next to a car. They then reali...
