15. Video Story Plan: Brief Synopsis

-

My chosen track has lots of potential for different storylines and narratives. My video will surround the idea of sexuality and people struggling with relationships with stereotypical heteronormative views and how that can affect an insider's view of the relationship itself.

In my music video, I will include different types of representation such as gender and sexuality and I will communicate these representations through my narrative: person one falls in love with person two but a third party intervenes in the growth and intimateness of their relationship causing person one to end up coping with that loss and revealing stereotypes throughout their grieving. 

In my video, I will also incorporate the idea of the recording process of the song itself. For example, the video begins with the artist (person one) in the studio, shot with faint typical studio noises and voices before the track begins to play. I feel as though this gives a more personal sense to the video as it shows that this is sung by the artist, and it is their own emotions conveyed throughout the lyrics in the song. The video will also end with a studio shot, indicating the conclusion of the video.  

There is a shot of my artist walking on the beach which is a recurring visual throughout the video. This will consist of rather dull and cold colours as it is representing them feeling blue, literally. Person one will be walking towards the camera, mid-shot, whilst the camera is moving back at the same pace as person one. 

The video will include contrasting shots, for example, person one is in bed and person two is in and out of these different shots showing the progression of the distance between the pair. 

I will also integrate the visual of person one sitting outside at night on a pavement or patio with lights facing them directly, whilst they lipsync. This juxtaposition is stemming from the idea that the spotlight has been taken away from them in the relationship aspect of their life and their love is no longer received as romantic, only platonic.

16. My Five Main Ideas and Story Boards

-
1. The Studio A visual of the recording process of the song itself. The video will begin with the artist (person one) in the studio with typical studio sounds in the background before the track begins to play. 2. The Beach Next, there is a shot of person one walking on the beach which is a reoccurring visual throughout the video in which the intensity of their emotions increases. This will include movement to convey that idea. 3. The Bedroom There will be a 'bedroom shot' of person one and person two lying in a bed together whilst person one is lipsyncing. This is a repeating visual throughout the video, however, the positioning of the characters changes parallel to the narrative depending on whether or not the relationship is steady or if it is rocky. For example, person one and person two will be facing each other in one scene, dissimilar to another scene when person one is facing the camera and person two is turned away from person one on their phone which is the first visua...

38. The Process of Creating My Web Pages

-
 Creating Web Pages When choosing a website-creating platform, I chose Wix. I chose it as I saw the potential of creating the artist's website I had envisioned. I started by choosing colours that I thought correlated with my music videos, such as blues, as I needed a sense of synergy and branding. This also allowed me to add my artist's logo at the top of the page, next to the given navigation menu.  I also added in section background drops of waves as a few of my scenes are on the beach and I saw this as a sign. The blues of the ocean and the sky related to my synergy colour of choice. The first recognisable feature of my home page is the website header video which consists of short clips of my music video to tell the storyline and engage the audience immediately.   My home page has my main artist image next to a brief information column to fully introduce the artist. I slightly struggled with the formatting of the website as I had not done this before, but it took ...
