INITIAL IDEAS:

The storyboard above is a first draft storyboard created with initial ideas, that we thought could potentially work well. One of the ideas was to include a low angled one shot pan that would take the camera from the bottom of the stairs, upwards and around the top of the stairs in one continuous shot.

Another idea I thought could potentially work well was to include a photograph and to tear it up, as if the girl character just did not want anything to do with her memories with her former boyfriend. Therefore, by disposing of the evidence it would mean disposing of the memories.

 

 

After creating the pitches on three different ideas and getting audience feedback on what our intended target market liked/didn't like I have chosen Idea3.

• Idea3 consists of a mixture between narrative and performance. Therefore, there needs to be a balanced section of each.
• There will be a feeling of 'regret'. Therefore, Hannah (being the female character) will need to show upset and hurt through some form e.g. looking at and old photograph and crying over what has happened.

• Due to our chosen location being set at a warehouse, we will need to look at possible options to set our performance side of our promo video. One possible location to set our promo video could be Henry's dads packaging warehouse. We would be able to use one of the sections of the warehouse and move everything around to create an empty space for our performance.

• One possible idea is to place the band in front of a brick styled wall to create the effect that it will look 'rural'. Therefore, this will give it an edge while sticking to what is expected of the indie genre. 

 

• Another possible idea that as a group we thought could work well was to create an extreme close up shot of a slightly titled low angled shot looking up at the mircophone from the ground. This shot would also include the lead singers foot steps walking into shot to show the relevance the object has to action taking place after this shot. This technique will also be used to grasp the audiences attention as they will be wondering why the object is placed there and whom of which the microphone belongs to. Therefore, they will want to carry on watching to find out therefore, even if they are not a fan of that paticular genre we have chosen for our band 4KICKS, they will still be intrigued to watch to find out what this band is all about as they will appear mysterious due to their opening of their music promo video.

 

 

 

 

For the ideas for the images for our digipak I considered creating still images of the band however, putting them in a formation that put them in a line straight on (one behind the other). This idea came from inspiration from another indie pop band The Script (shown below). However, the image below shows the artist one behind each othe but not in an obvious line therefore, when positioning the members of our band they will be placed directly straight behind one another.
