Costume Ideas

These are my costume ideas for the different scenes of my music video. I have tried to utilize the different items of clothing which the talent already have, especially as I don't own any male clothing for my male character to wear. The aim is to present them as looking slightly alternative which will represent the genre of the music. For example, I will have them both wearing black skinny jeans and Leah will wear casual items  such as a band t-shirt, a leather jacket and other dark clothing. 

I will model the look of Jordan in particular on the band 'A Day to Remember'. They are often seen wearing casual clothing and simple t-shirts and jeans. They are not clean shaven and they don't appear to be formal. Therefore, I will try to re-create their look in the video to represent the genre, especially through Jordan's costume as I can make him look as similar as possible to the members of the band by the choice of costume.

Organisation of filiming

During my music video I would like to include a scene where the young couple are seen eating out together. This will be one of the 'flashbacks' of the time where they are both happy together before the female receives her diagnosis. I have decided to approach and ask the permission from the owner of Lempicka cafe in Beverley (Claire Strawbridge) who is also my boss to let me film this scene in her cafe.

I have also organised two dates with the talent via Facebook to do some filming for my music video. I did this by sending a group message to both Leah and Jordan. Monday 11th November and Friday 15th November.



Location List

Location List

• My House (due to the majority of the scenes being inside and I can provide the required mise-en-scene and costume for Leah)

• Beverley town centre (INSERT PICTURES HERE)
• Poplars Way Park (INSERT PICTURES HERE)

 

UPDATE TO CAST LIST

Due to personal issues, Katie and Adam feel that they can no longer participate in my music video. Therefore, I have had to search for another female and male lead. From approaching some students who are also college/sixth form students, I have found a new female and male lead.

Leah Andrew (17 years old)
 I chose Leah because she studies Theatre at A Level and has experience of performing in number of different plays and productions. Therefore, I can rely on her to put 100% into her performance when playing the role, she will also be used to listening to instructions and being infront of an audience or a camera. Again she is a member of my target audience which will allow the viewers of the music video to relate to her age, and relationship experiences.

Jordan Allen (16 years old)
I chose Jordan to co-star in my music video as he is part of a theatre group
which both he and Leah attend. They have built a good friendship and I feel that due to the nature of the role (acting as a couple) this will allow them to be more comfortable together in front of the camera. As he is also part of a theatre group, this means that like Leah, he will have experience of performing in different plays and productions and will also be used to being infront of an audience or a camera. He is also a member of my target audience and as my storyline focuses on a young couple, I needed him to be of a similar age to Leah to create verisimilitude for the young audience.
