Production Diary

 As I am close to filming my video, I want to make sure I have all the necessary planning posts completed as I feel as though these will really help me when it comes down to shooting, especially the costume planning and the prop list. When I do begin to film, I will look back at these for guidance.

 The song I have chosen for my music video is ‘You’ by The Pretty Reckless. As The Pretty Reckless are a rock band, I want my artist style to look somewhat like a rock artist. This may include the heavy make-up she wears or the dark clothes. In fact, for this post I also looked at images of Taylor Momsen (the lead singer in the band) for style ideas. She tends to wear rock style clothing and dark black eye make-up. This type of look is something I think is relevant to include in my own video also.

 The props list was also necessary to create. This included all the pieces of clothing I needed for the costumes, the objects I wanted to shot within my video and the vital equipment. As I mentioned before, I will look at this before shooting so I don’t forget any important props for my video.

  My latest post was my moodboard which I created to express the themes I want to portray within my music video. I enjoyed creating it as searching for particular images to go with the song gave me even more ideas for the production of my video. I also used the song I am using in my video in the background to create a stronger sense of what my final music video will look like.
