Our Idea Explained

Our Idea Explained

INTRO
We want to start with varied shots of Leeds to carry on with their last video and then also some countryside shots. Then close up shots of the band packing up from a gig/rehearsal space, not showing their faces only their bodies, instruments and set ups. 

MAIN BODY 
Then we see them getting into their car, this is where we are introduced to the man with the "smile bag" on looming in the background. After this we see them driving through a city and we see some interesting camera shots, to where we get to a cafe.
In the cafe the band are doing a gig, surrounded by elderly people, the man with the smile bag is there watching from a corner table. He get a text to where the next gig is and then gets up and leaves. We then see them back in the car again but this time we move into the countryside with varied shots of moorland etc. We then see a series of shot of the band moving around the car and the man with the bag is in the car too.
We see a extreme long shot of an abandoned shack and cut in until we get inside the building. The band wander around the building and surrounding area and then shots with the man in the background appear, in each shot he is getting closer and closer to the band and at the end there is a sort of black out and when the lights come back on the band are sat tied to chairs with the smile bag on.

MVDay: My finalised Idea - Key Points

Our finalised idea- key points
Our video is an amateur re-creation of Christina Aguilera's Candyman. To do this we will incorporate members of our school e.g. younger years and select members of the post 16 student body as well as members of staff that are willing to participate. We will also take full advantage of the equipment, locations and props available to us through school and friends to help us successfully re create this video to our fullest potential. We however only have the space of one day to couple this task therefore we will be rushed for time, but we through planning we can hopefully meet our deadline. 

The shots and locations are pretty straight forward however the shots rapidly change through out following the normal style of a pop video, so we will have to take many alternating shots to successfully create this which will be a challenge. 

1. We will use 3 upper 6th girls to take the roles of the 3 main Christina's 

However we only have one hat so the main blonde christina will wear this as a running piece of costume to clearly show who is playing christina in this sequence and in many others through out the video. Wigs will be worn to replicate the blonde, ginger and brunette christina these may be swapped around during the video to create variety.

2. lower school students will be used to create the crowd shots i.e. the soldiers and band.

 The band will wear their normal white shirts and a dickie bow to create a simple look which will be effective. Also as we don't have access to this amount of instruments so card board cut out ones may be used. 

For the soldiers we will create paper sailor hats for them all to create a running piece of costume, clearly indicating that they are soldiers. 

3.

We will slap incorporate teachers into the mix as either Christina's or extras. 

4. There is a key dance scene in which we will use Paige to be the main female dancer and another male dancer to be her partner.

5. To create the back drop for the single Christina's we will either use coloured card or a green screen. 

6. To create the back drop for the airport we will need to use the green screen to create and effective backdrop.

7. We will use the cafeteria at school to re create the bar scene and will instead use the spinning chairs from the media classroom
