Production Schedule

Beneath is the production schedule that I wish to stick to throughout the project.

The production schedule is another important piece of planning work that needs to followed. I have put 4 days aside in which I want to complete all of the filming. I will try to stick to this plan as it is important to keep organised otherwise things may start to take to long and start to become confusing, which will result in me not finishing the filming in time.

Assets List

Beneath is a list of necessities that I require to film my music video.

 These are the important assets that I need to help me film my music video. For example the guitar and drum kit are quite an obvious asset as I need them for the band to play as you can hear the drums and guitar in the song. Whereas the less obvious assets are possibly a toothbrush and a towel as you wouldn't think that I would have to use them but for my filming it is quite important that I have them as i have planned to film the video with them in.  

Analysis of CD Covers

Below are three different CD album covers, front and back and also the CD itself. I included the band that I want to use for my final video as I feel that it would have given me some ideas of how I should lay out my final Digipak. I also included Tinie Tempah's new album 'Disc-overy'. I also analysed MIA's album Kala, as both Tinie Tempah and MIA have colourful and vibrant Digipaks.


1. Tinie Tempah - Disc-Overy, I analysed this album as I had previously analysed the music video 'Written in the Stars' by Tinie Tempah this made it easier for me to analyse. I was able to analyse techniques much quicker than what I would have been able to if I chose another album.

2. MIA - Kala, again I had previously analysed a song from this album, which gave me an idea of how to analyse the CD cover. I also chose this album as it is a very vibrant and stands out, which makes it easier to analyse.

3. U2 - How to dismantle an Atomic Bomb, this is the final album that I decided to analyse this album as this is the band that I will be using when I make my final video. Although it is not the album that includes the song that I want to use for my final video but this album does give me some ideas for my final digipak

Stll Images of Storyboard for Video

Here are my storyboard drawings of how I want my video actually set out, however these are only guidelines and could change if I feel there is a better way to film a certain piece. With the drawings I have put small notes underneath to help remind myself of actions the actor and the camera have to make when filming the video. I have also put speech bubbles on the post it notes so that I also know what parts that the singer will be singing. 

Animatic Storyboard Video

Above is the animatic storyboard of how I want my video set out and the different camera angles that I am looking to use. The seconds in between each cut represents how long each cut will actually be when I go and film the video.

When I created the animatic storyboard I was required to use a video camera to capture the images, I did this by attaching the camera to a tripod and tilting the camera forward so that it was facing the desk. I placed the sheets on the desk and looked through the camera to ensure that the correct post it note was in the frame. After i filmed the first one I paused the film and slid the sheet along to the next post it note. This procedure took about a lesson to complete.

Music Video Analysis - Written in the Stars Tinie Tempah

Above is the video Written in the Stars by Tinie Tempah and the video shows the audience the experiences he felt when he was growing up as a young boy. Alot of the lyrics relate to the visual that Tinie Tempah is performing. Overall the video is partly narrative based because it is telling the story of a young boy, and also partly concept based because that young boy is supposed to be Tinie when he was younger.

Below is my full video analysis of the video Written in the Stars, here I have combined both text and images to analyse the video.

Music Video Analysis - Paper Planes MIA

Above is the video paper planes which is sung by MIA. This is the first video that I chose to analyse for my music video analysis. In order for me to create an acceptable analysis, I was required to answer a series of questions that relate to the video, the overall idea was to create a document that combined Images and text.

Below you are able to see my first music Video analysis, Paper Planes by MIA.
