2. Starting Shot
The first shot I want to use in my video is of a close up of a
wooden gate, in a field. I want to use this as my first shot as
I can then set the scene. I want it come in to focus quite
slowly, as the start of my chosen song has a slow pace at
the beginning and I feel that it would fit in nicely.

3. Finishing shot
S For my finishing shot I am planning on creating a long
shot, this will be of the main character walking off in to
the distance in time with the melody.

4. Location
My chosen location is to film my
music video in a rural area. I would
like to film some scenes in a calm,
quite area as well as a busy loud city
location. This can then emphasis the
differences and highlight the purpose
of the song, and how homesick the
character is.

5. Location
S To portray the location to the audience I am planning to
use a series of establishing shots, this to suggest the feel
I am trying to show. My plan is to create a indie feel, this
being the reason why I am including so many rural out
door shots . I will also include a series of close up and
mid shots of various objects such as sticks, or the grass
blowing in the wind, enhancing a calming, peaceful vibe
to my music video.

6. Casting
S I have not yet planned who I am going to use in my music
video. Although I have a few people who may play the role.
S For the male role the people who may be casted are Mathew
Tyler and Sam Marlow. The reason I have chosen these to
appear in my music video is because they have a similar
fashion sense and appearance which I was hoping to use
within my video. By casting people who already have a similar
fashion sense and look I feel they will feel more comfortable in
what they wear and it will also benefit me as it will be cheaper
as they can then wear their own clothes.

7. Male Role
S When capturing the male role I want a serious of camera
shots which are used. These being a mixture of long
shots, mid shots and close ups. My plan is for the male
to be walking down a field, here I will show a close up
shot to show the facial expressions of my character,
signaling to the audience that he is peaceful and happy
being where he is in the country side, him feeling at
home. I will also be using a long shot and the camera
movement of panning to show him walking happily
thinking.

8. Male Role
S I will also shoot some footage of my male role in a busy
city, by using close up shots to show him feeling
uncomfortable and out of place and mid and long shots to
show that he feels lost in a busy place, feeling lonely. I
will also use a panning movement to show the business
and the claustrophobic feel of the male role, as he is out
of his comfort zone.
