Planning for Shoots + Shot List - Music Video

Below is a table of all of the shots I need to film for my music video. The table includes where I plan to shoot the footage, what scene is taking place and the types of shots I need to ensure I include. Additionally, I also included the plan for each shoot including the hair/make-up, costume and the props to give me a sort of 'checklist' for every time I go out to shoot to ensure I have everything I need.

Below is a collection of influential images to help inspire me and to also help me to visually set-up each shot.

Main Influences

Along my journey of research and planning for my three products; music video, Digipak and website, I have been influenced by various existing products to help me enhance and develop my creativity.

To start with, I looked at existing videos by my chosen musician, Ed Sheeran, to gain influence from his existing products and to develop a realistic sense of branding with my own music video. My two favourite videos of his were The A Team and Give Me Love:



These two videos were the most simplistic of all of his videos, which is what I like and want to apply to my own work. Although quite simple, they're both very artistic in the ways that they portray the lyrics, whilst a few of his other videos are more comical and are created for the purpose of entertaining, whilst these are here to tell a story, which is what I want to also portray for my song. I think the dark and 'grundgy' colours work well in these videos as they give them a serious tone, furthermore helping to portray the emotion and story of the lyrics, so this is likely to influence me to use darker, neutral colours within my music video.
