Shot List:

- Leigh on Sea Marine Parade 

- Beach hut in Thorpe Bay

- Arcades in Southend on Sea

- Robertos Ice cream in Southend on Sea

-  Studio

- Bedroom

 Shot type

- A wide range of shot types including establishing and wide shots, close ups, mid shots, and screen through screens

Camera movement

- Once again, a wide range of camera movements - some static, some in motion, zoom ins and zoom outs

Props and Costumes required

- Phone

- Camera

- Ice cream

(Minimal props required - more of a focus on the talent themselves)

- Cohesive costumes - eg. in some shots all wear white top and jeans for all ages (to show that the couple are the same couple at different ages). Scarlett wears a dress in her studio shoot as following pop ballad conventions, the artists typically dress formal (matching the mood of the song), despite the informal studio setting - I would argue that this adds to the professionalism of the music video, and helps appeals to an up-market audience, exemplifying that the music video is also serious and aware that the underlying message is bittersweet and mature.

 

 

 

 

 

Ensure these sketches and shot lists are on your blogs before the end of term.



Statement of Intent

 Statement of Intent

The music video will address the songs themes of nostalgia, love and passage of time by following a central couple at different life stages - childhood (age 6), teenage years (present day - 17 years), middle-aged (50s), and elderly (70s). This will successfully allow me to "represent" the two "social groups" of "age" and "gender".

Meeting the brief, the "socially conscious 16-25-year-old-audience" will relate to the coherent themes of nostalgia, change, and youthful memories, aligning with the brief's requirement for a "primarily 16-25 year old middle and up market audience of style-conscious people".

The audience will engage with it because, while being deeply emotional, the video will be visually compelling and cinematic, featuring multiple different shot types to enhance the intimate yet universal storytelling. 

I will use digital convergence by referencing the website at the end of the music video as recommended in the examiners report, ensuring cross-platform promotion. The website will also promote my artist to her target audience and enable fans to interact with her, featuring the music video, exclusive behind-the-scene content, and an interactive section where fans can share their own nostalgic memories. The audience will also be encouraged to interact, through email sign-ups and features social media posts, creating a cohesive brand identity across both platforms.
