Rough Cut Feedback

After showing my classmates the rough cut video my team and i had made, we got some feedback from them.

29/11/2016

My team and I had a meeting talking about our CD case. We have looked at varying artists and their albums to give us some ideas on what we can do. We looked at Childish Gambino's album titled Camp which shows photographs of a forest and this fits with our theme as we have featured a forest as scenery in our music video. This is a possible background that we will include in our CD case however, we have also thought about changing it and making the studio a place to do our shoots to have a clean and clearer view on the bunny. Long exposures may be used in our shoot to give a blurred look to the photos and show motion, this will portray the confusion that we have in our video.

My team and I will discuss this in more detail.

Risk Assessments

Risk Assessment for Epping Forest

One thing which could be a potential risk is that the weather could be really bad. This is a risk because if it rains, the camera could possibly get wet and therefore be damaged. Also it can affect our actor and crew. To resolve this, we have taken the precaution of checking the weather beforehand and also making sure we are fully prepared for rain (for example, bringing an umbrella to protect the camera and bringing appropriate clothing).

Another risk that we could run into while recording in Epping Forest is that while shooting the last scene where the bunny walks into the water, it will be extremely cold. This is an issue for the actor as he will need to get warm immediately. To avoid anything from happening as a result of this scene, we have taken the action of bringing extra clothes and a heating pad to make sure our actor doesn't get too affected by it.

Risk Assessment for God's Own Junkyard

While shooting in God's Own Junkyard we could run into the risk of having a passerby trip on the tripod as it is a very small space. To avoid this we will make sure to leave as much space as possible for people to make their way around us and we will also look ahead of time to check what times they are least busy and make sure to shoot then.

Risk Assessment for Central London shoots

The weather could also be an issue while shooting in central London. To prevent any damage we will do the same as we will while shooting in Epping Forest and take an umbrella to protect the camera from damage.

Epping Forest

This will be the location near the end of our music video, it will symbolise the area which the bunny feels he belongs and is meant to be.

Brick Lane

This place will be the main scenery in our music video as it is somewhere a bunny is not supposed to be, which will convey a feeling of confusion and being out of place in somewhere that most people feel normal. This will also show the isolation that is in the song we have chosen, as the artist has felt isolated from his friends/family because of his own actions.

10/10/2016

My team and I have completed our storyboards for the music video. We have a total of 30 scenes however we will be adding more to it as we record. We will begin shooting as soon as we have all of our props together. We have also emailed the record label to ask for permission to use the song and make a video for it, evidence of this is published on my blog.
