Plan
The media product we are making is a music
video. The song we are using is Alicia Keys – Doesn’t Mean Anything as we feel the idea for our music video was suitable to the props and locations we had available. The idea we chose for our music video is about a girl starting a new school. The video takes you
through her journey throughout the first school day. Scenes include her walking
into school and facing bullying difficulties and eventually making a new
friend.
3 The roles
we assigned in our group were:
-
Henry –
Direction and video organiser – Henry has good organisation skills and creative
idea’s for shots in the music video. He also has experience working with camera’s.
-
Rachel –
Actor and second planner – Rachel takes part in after school drama classes so
her acting skills are the best in the group. She also is organised and is good
at English and writing.
-
Jess – 2nd
Actor and writing planner – Jess has strong English writing skills and is good
at communicating so an acting role was ideal for her.
The
equipment we used/booked were:
-
Camera and
tripod for filming
-
Film tape to record and save the footage on
-
iMacs for
planning and video editing
-
Rooms for the filming locations
-
Actors for the characters in the music video

We don’t
need any materials for this production as all of our props/locations are available to us around school which is where we are based.

The
locations we are using are all around the school e.g. classrooms, corridors, the
playground , PE Department and the school hall.

We are planning
the video until September time making sure all of the written tasks are completed and we know what we are doing. We will then be shooting the
video up until October time making sure we collect all of the shots we need for editing the video together. Finally, we will edit the video throughout October so the Unit is completed by the end of 2012.
