First draft (missing part of it)

Here is my first draft with the part driving to the field location missing. I am planning to film this week for this part and will upload a further draft once I have done so.

Magazine advert ideas.


I have been playing about on Photoshop with a screenshot I have taken from one of the videos I took.  I first started by making the blue smoke the only colour on the image but that wasn't as effective as I had hoped so I added colour to the band member also. This then looked quite effective and the composition of the image worked well as he is stood on the first rule of third line. I then downloaded some new watercolour brushes to create the effect on the right so that I could add text over the top and it be readable. 


The font I am thinking of using is the one below, I think this will anchor the style created by the underpainting area and adds to the brand image of the band. I will use this throughout all of my work to show continuity.


The image I have used is only a low resolution as it is a screenshot of a video so with my remaining smoke bombs, I will set up similar scenarios with all of the band members for alternate versions for use in different publications. I will also retake this one so that the production values are higher, having a higher quality image.

Opening scene first draft



I have added a new opening scene idea, which is of one band member washing the car and then getting a call. From this it will be implied that he picks up the rest of the band as they will later get out of the car together at the field location.

Props: Other.


Time management.


These are my proposed schedules for my filming and editing.

Props: DIY smoke bombs


I have painted them black so that they look neater than just the toilet/kitchen roll tubes that they are as black doesn't show up on the video in too much detail from the distance I am filming from so the quality of the props will look of a better standard and add to the production value of my music video.

Overall, these props cost around under #20, but will play a major role in my final production, hopefully proving to be excellent value for money in terms of production value added.
