Planning Ahead

Now that I have completed a large section of my planning and research into certain aspects of my production, such as the location, casting aswell as tasks such as storyboarding etc. I feel that I am now in a relatively strong position to move forward within my production. Today I spent some time looking at what direction to head next with my planning and research, knowing what I have already completed I was in a position which meant I could think more about the types of shots rather than the finer details that have already been completed such as locations.

I have set myself some tasks of planning and research into a number of different shots, these are listed below -

• Widescreen Editing
• Main Chorus Shot Planning and Research

This lists of shots that I need to put time into getting a greater idea about through the planning and research skills I have showed previously. I will be trying my hand at the different shots in order to know what it is that is required and note how to improve upon my skills before the final production filming. I will be keeping my blog upto date with these types of shots through video's that will be uploaded to my Vimeo account, I will also been keeping updated with my progress and how I will go about improving any downfalls within the practice runs.

Cast Costume (Olly Murs)

Today I have been making the final decisions on the type of outfit I want my Olly Murs to sport, I have opted to go with a very classy and gentlmanly type look for my cast. Considering the location I plan to use and the meaning of the song in terms of it being a first date, all this aswell as the fact Olly Murs tends to wear a lot of these type of clothes I have opted to go with the below.

Ska Hat - This is a look that is used frequently by Olly himself, it will add to the look and give a classy feel to the outfit that will really come across during the production. It will help to give him a sense of individuality and really represent my artist in the right way.

 

 

The grey waistcoat will accompany the white button up shirt beautifully, along with the matching trousers. This will give him a chic and once again classy look, without making the look too formal for the cuts.

 

Matching trousers is a must for the look, this will help to finish off the look and give my cast the complete Olly Murs look. It will overall give him a smart and sophisticated feel and really add to the vibe of the music video and the production as a whole.

I have decided to go for a pointed end to the shoes as I feel it will once again help to add to his individuality, it will give him stylish look and will again sway away for a business look and more towards a chic and sophisiticated feel.

Having selected this look I am very happy with the look that will be achieved during my production. My cast will be sporting a very classy look that represents my artist correctly and really helps to set the mood of the production and set the scene for the date that will be involved within the production.
