Music video storyboards- Miss Georgiou

Storyboards

·         What is the purpose of a storyboard?

       The purpose of  a storyboard is to give a guide during the filming process of what shots we can film at what stage and what the precise shot is. The storyboard allows the planning of the music videos to be detailed and you can see what shot type it is, how long the shot lasts for, the angle, setting of the shot, actors, lighting and sound.

·         How did you use your primary and secondary research that you carried out, to plan your music video?

       We had decided to carry out research via vox pops and a questionnaire where we asked over 40 people about what they like about a music video and the music video that was conventional to our genre, from this we knew what we have to include in our music video such as a more narrative and concept based music video rather than a performance based music video, form this we decided to only include small performance segments. The primary and secondary research that we carried out was very helpful in this way as it made our music video be more enjoyable for the large audience and target audience that we asked in this research.

·         How did you and your group storyboard your music video

      Our group decided on the basic narrative together with individual ideas being discussed, then we decided what shots, lighting, setting and other elements that we planned through the storyboard. We drew each shot out so we had a basic idea of what the shot would look like.

·         How did you share the responsibility?

        We shared responsibility by all giving our own ideas and then discussing them, this was the most efficient and productive way of making the storyboards and narrative, and the responsibility wasn't pinned on anyone person.

·         Did you follow your storyboards, or did you make changes? Answer this question after you have filmed

      We used the storyboards as a guide, and when we got to the location we might have to change the original idea, or improve it from the original, also whith some shots we followed the storyboards exactly, but other shots we decided not to film.
