GUIDANCE
This template PowerPoint presentation includes all the
relevant elements you need to cover in your Music
Video Assignment 02
It is suggested you save this PP in a different name and
share it with your group so you always have a copy
some sections require you to delete the information on
the slide and replace with your own work
Add more pages to each section where necessary [you
should be doing this!]
Add visuals as you see necessary
This document will be added to as you progress
through the pre-production phase.
TASK 1 Idea Generation and
Research
RESEARCH & IDEA
GENERATION
Select a song/track that you like [or dont like!]
Generate three ideas for music videos employing
styles, techniques and conventions that we have
looked at in previous sessions. Explore how you could
interpret the song differently using different methods
You can add any extra info you think is relevant,
images, mind maps, etc
For quick mind maps you could use bubbl.us to
generate these
IDEA GENERATION
Two Door Cinema Club Sleep Alone
The song has a signification connection with the
somebodies subconscious and because of this I would
like to create and develop what people believe and
think about this will be done using a effects in order to
create an idealism environment for the viewers
enjoyment. I could portray the song with the complete
opposite by using physical rather than a mental
element within the song, If this method is used, then
mental health could be a major theme throughout the
video. The next concept of the song is that the
throughout the song there is a description of solider
and because of this it is could be used in order to show
a different aspect as well as helping the audience gage
a different understanding on the songs message. The
genre conventions which exist within the song are the
use of close ups on the main singer and this is
RESEARCH
Watch a selection of videos to get your ideas started,
make note of a minimum of 5 add extra slides,
screenshot the video and in bullet point note down info
in terms of camera, editing, art design, performance,
etc and how this might link to your production
THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS- GO

- In the music video it solely based around two poles

and how they are manipulated with choreographed
movement based around the beats of the song. In the
song there contains many different camera shots of
the same movement, this is used to give the viewer a
better understanding on what is happening in the
song. The song also uses close up shots at the
beginning of the song and this is used to show the
viewer, what the people look like, whom are
manipulating the poles.
THE WHITE STRIPES-
HARDEST BUTTON TO
BUTTON
In the music video it uses reputation in the sense of
the music instruments being played, this is used to
progress the video by them moving throughout a city
landscape by the use of instruments, the instruments
are repeated on the beat of the song this is important
in establishing a more prominent connection between
the song and the video itself. In the music video they
also used the reputation in collaboration with the
camera shot this is used in order to create a more
atmospheric viewing experience.
DAFT PUNK- AROUND
THE WORLD
In the music video there is a mass amount of robotic
choreography in which is done to the beat of the song,
in the music video it also uses flashing and bright lights
in order to emphasis the movement of the dancers.
Some parts of the video the movement is done by the
whole cast of dance this also give the robotic more
emphasis. Finally, the music video has a juxtaposition
of costume involved in the song this Is done in order to
increase the quirkiness within the song and therefore
the video.
NOIR DSIR - A
L'ENVERS A L'ENDROIT
In the music video for this song the use of reputation of
clips is done through the music video and the action
that are repeated are ones based around the work
place. The video tries to emphasis the menial task in
which people often do at work. Near the end of the
video, the repetition increases in speed, to the point
where it become flickering effect, this is important as
the song has a slight increase in tempo therefore to
emphasize this the repetition become much more
faster.
FOO FIGHTERS-
EVERLONG
This Music video is based around somebody
subconscious in which is portrayed in a sort of folklore
way. The music video has effects that manipulate the
hands of the singer in the band this is used to
emphases that this is not real as well as the power of
somebody conscious. Near the end of the music video
there is effects in which change the colour of the
screen as well as this there is a series of close up shots
on the different aspects of the band. Close ups are also
used to give the viewer a clear understanding on when
they are switching in and out of consciousness.

CONVENTIONS
- In Music Video there is a relationship between the
music and the video on screen, as well as this there is
often intertextual references, this can be influences
from films, TV programs, fashion and other music
videos. Conventions can also exist within music video
in order to help market the genre of music in which the
song may be categorised as, an example of this is in
the band Nirvana in which the band used older
stereotypes within the rock industry an example of
this is used in music video in where the camera will get
a close up of a guitar's solo.
SUMMARY

Pros
Location: There is only two locations in which i am
planning to film at this means that i won't need to carry
all of the equipment from place to place very often.
Effects: The Effect in which i want to use are ones which
will help establish an eerie atmosphere, which will make
the viewer question the lyrics within the song.
Traveling: The locations in which i am planning to film at
are all at my disposal therefore there will be no
permission or money spent to use the facilities.
Lipsync: This is important in having a clear structure
within the video, and this helps the viewer understand
and interpret what the actor is thinking as well as lip
syncing to the song.
SUMMARY

Cons
Time: Filming can take a lot of time and my idea is to
use lip sync and this can be hard to get the right
timings of filming as well as matching in post
production.
Budget: The money in which i have available is very
limited this means that i won't be able to afford
amazing props as well as maybe ideal locations, this
may mean i have to change the location in which i need
to film at.
Effects: Getting the right effect on my clips may be hard
as i am not that efficient in adobe premiere pro, this
also may affect the time taken, as it will mean it take
longer to get the right effect.
Weather: Taking the shots will require a day in which it
won't rain in order for it not to affect the equipment this
FINAL IDEA

Genre info: The type of music in which Two Door Cinema Club
play is Folk/indie based music, this sort of music has a
reputation for a quirky and unique style and the band follow
this convention
FINAL IDEA TRACK
SUMMARY
The song i have picked is Two Door Cinema Club-Sleep
Alone, i have picked this song as it has connotations of
a supernatural nature therefore this will help amplify
the darker message in which i want. The song for me
questions what reality is, an i have looked at this in the
previous section by analysis work by Michel Gondry
and this was the main influence for my music video.
FINAL IDEA YOUR IDEA
The idea that i have got for my music video is to use
distortion effects in order to create an eerie
atmosphere as well as this i want to use ghosting by
overlay clips in order to create shadows this will
hopefully emphasise the creepy and eerie atmosphere.
The meaning behind the song is today with reaching
out to society and getting your message across, I have
decide to make this message seem more sinister by
the use of these eerie effects and this is important in
understanding a alternative message within the song
and this is what i am trying to achieve within my music
video. the conventions within the indie genre are often
quite unique therefore due to the style which i am
trying to portray will be important in developing
another side to the track.
TASK 2 Pre-production
Assessment
GUIDANCE:
PRE-PRODUCTION
ASSESSMENT
You need to assess the viability of your production and
investigate what is required to enable you to make
your music video
Much of this task is hypothetical, which means you will
need to investigate standard costings for such a
production and apply these to your planned production
considering which equipment you would need and
resources, etc
Resources to support this are in the Pre-production
assessment folder on Blackboard
Delete the questions on each slide and insert your
responses
GUIDANCE:
BUDGET TARGET
You have provisionally given an outline target of 2000
to make your music video
This target should include a 10% contingency [that
means your budget should allow for 200 pounds
within the budget so realistically you aim lower than
1800]
Your budget should account for everything, except your
own time and input
Consider more than one option to solve a requirement
you may be able to balance your budget later, there
will have to be a compromise somewhere
GUIDANCE:
TIME
You will need to plan a schedule for the pre-
production/production/post-production
Nominally you should work on 2 weeks pre-production,
1 week filming [2 college days Mon./Tues first week
after half term] and 2 weeks edit/post-production
Who is going to do what? How will you split the time?
When can you film? What is the availability of the
equipment/resources/locations/personnel?
What problems can you foresee? How will you
overcome them?
TITLE OF
PRODUCTION/PRODUCTI
ON OUTLINE
Summary of intended production: I will be creating a music video for the
song Sleep Alone by Two Door Cinema Club.
Detail here what you are going to make and the intended outcome:
The main aspect of the music video will be themes of the sub conscious and
how the brain think when conjoined within the themes of the song. The
outcome which want of the video look like and gage the understanding that
the perceptive of the video is told from within somebodies conscious. The
conscious is a very interesting theme in which can have many different
interpretations.
Detailed breakdown of the music track chosen and your
interpretation of it [remember the questions in the workbook, e.g.
pace/mood/tone/structure]: The song has many different themes and
because of this the song can be interpreted in many different ways, one of the
most prominent themes is the one of the subconscious and the fear in which
exist in everyone. The song is fast paced as well as this the song Is quite
uplifting this gives the song the feel of overcome the fears in which exist
within us. The song is short and because of this the song are mainly made up
of just the chorus.
Specific outline your intended technical/equipment requirements:
The technical requirements for my video will consist of many different
technical elements, one of these will be the use of different
Include any details that you think [you could use material from your
pitch]
LOCATIONS
You need to identify locations and plan a recce.
What are the limitations and risks, eg distance,
access, cost, weather? How will you manage
this?
The Filming of the music video will take place in my
home town of Pickering, there I will be filming
throughout the main town centre and because of this
there might be some restrictions one of these is that I
will need permission when filming as well as this there
can be many other restrictions one of these is the
weather as when creating my music video it will be
important in capturing the right atmosphere for my
music video. When filming I will be limited in many
other ways one of those being that in my local town
they have markets throughout the week therefore in
EQUIPMENT
When filming a music video it requires many different types of
equipment and this is important in creating a visually stimulating video.
There are many different types of camera and the camera that I will be
using to create my music video will be the Canon C300, this will be
important in capturing a good image. When hiring a camera the price
of this camera is around 95 per day, this will mean that I will need to
make sure that I plan my shots carefully before taking them, as without
this means that I could be wasting time with the camera equipment.
When hiring a camera I will also need a tripod, in order to capture
stable video, a tripod is important in creating consistency between my
shots. Tripods can hired for around 10 depending on the branding of
tripod, at camerahire.com they have a range of cameras and
equipment in which you can hire for weeks if required for that project.
At college there is equipment in which I can use for this product this
will be important in lowering the cost of the project, at college there is
a range or resources but most importantly is having access to the
camera equipment in order to capture my music video. Keeping the
costs low are important, although making sure that I get quality
equipment is important in making a good video. The video will need to
have different resources in order to make it a good video. The overall
importance of managing a budget is making sure that you get your
moneys worth. Comparison is important as I can manage money
effetely and by getting the right equipment for the project in which I
am creating. Accessories can also be important in making sure the film
process is efficient therefore I would like to add a LED light to the top of
the camera in order to make filming in darker surroundings, much more
easier.
FACILITIES
Where will you edit your video? Do you need any other
specialist facilities?
Facilities that I will need to edit my video is a computer
which has access to editing software as this will allow
me to cut and visually manipulate the captured clips.
There are some editing facilities with in my local area
the price of these can be dependent on the services
included as many of these facilities can come with
someone whom has professional experience within the
industry of editing, this can be very valuable when
creating a video it will help to understand technically
what can be done to improve the overall quality of the
video. Although some editing facilities have this, it
might be financially beneficial In just hiring a studio,
especially as I believe that I have the editing skills in
order to manipulate my capture video. I dont believe
that I will need any specialized equipment in creating
PERSONNEL
CREW: What is you team? Who is in it? What are each team
member's strengths/weaknesses? When are they available? The
crew for my music video will be very simplistic, I will be the
camera operator and the actor whom will be in the music video,
keeping a small production bass will be good for me as it allows
me to move to location quicker and keeping with the simplistic
style I am going for will create a more rustic and surreal video.
CAST: Do you need any external performers? When are they
available? Cost implications? Will you have to feed them?
Transport them? I will not have any external performers although
I will have to move from location, therefore there will be costs
especially in transportation of to the location of where the video
will be filmed, as the location of my music video.
Other personnel? Is anyone else helping you?
PROPS/COSTUME/ETC
In my music video, I will be using a minimal amount of
props and costume, and the main aspect of the
costumes will be trying to create a surreal
environment, in order to try and establish a connection
between the visuals and the song itself. As the song
can be interpreted in a way where the subconscious is
a major theme therefore this is why I would like to
experiment in trying to create and surreal viewing
experience as people's conscious is limitless. I will not
be using any costume although I will creating a
ghosting effect in post production in order to create the
illusion that the video is surreal.

CODES OF PRACTICE
AND REGULATIONS
Do you need clearance for copyrighted materials? [you
will need to contact Mechanical Copyright Protection
Society-Performing Rights Society Alliance (MCPS-PRS)]
Do you have performers external to your group
performing? They will need release forms that declare
you can use footage of them in the production.
Do you have any actors under the age of 18? You will
need parental permission forms.
Are you filming on private property? You will need
written consent PRIOR to filming. Plan in advance. This
needs to be considered.
Consider where you may need specific risk
assessments and health and safety documentation
CODES OF PRACTICE
AND REGULATION
In my music video I will not be using any external
performers to my group, as well as this in my music
video. In the music video I will be the only performer in
my video this will make The filming of the music video
may need permission therefore I will need to contact
the appropriate authorities. Risk assessments, will
need to be done in order to assess the threats, and this
is also done in order to make sure that no one gets
hurt while filming the music video. The codes of
practice are very important in reassuring the safety of
the people involved in the music video.

COSTS
Using industry rates cards and researched costs of
equipment [cameras], cast, crew, props and facilities
[locations, edit rooms, etc] calculate the likely cost of
your production
Outline details of financial considerations of project,
this could be cost of props/costume/travel/food/etc
Explain what your overall budget is [if applicable] and
how this is to be met
How will you deal with any extra costs? Contingency
fund? What percentage of your budget should this be?
[hint: add 10% on to the final cost, this should cover
it!]
Do you foresee any problems? How will you manage
this/over come them?
FINAL BUDGET
BREAKDOWN
Camera: 95 Per Day therefore the total cost will be
285
Tripod: 12.50 per Day therefore the total cost will be
37.50.
The budget for the music video is 2000 therefore i will
have a mass sum in case any shots can be taken and i
will require to book the camera for extra days and this
may be because of the weather or other unseen events.
BUDGET EXPLANATION
AND JUSTIFICATION
The camera hire will be my highest expense when
filming my music video as this will cost around 95 a
day, although the budget for the music video is 2000
and this will mean that i can spend more time editing
and making sure that the video is edited in the surreal
may in which i have intend.

PRE-PRODUCTION:
VISUAL PLANNING
This section is concerned with the visual planning of
your music video
You should use this section to develop the sequencing
or your video, establish the relationship between the
visuals and the track itself and create a structure for
you to follow when filming
It is important that you pre-visualise the video before
you make it; it will make filming and production a more
streamlined process

CONCEPT BOARD
CONCEPT
The idea for my music video will be that the idea that
the fears within the main actor conscious, continue to
grow throughout the music video and this will be visual
represented as the ghosts which will slowly come
closer to the main actor although by the end of the
music video the fears will have been overcome, this
will be displayed visually by the use, of brighter as well
as the disappearance of the ghosts from the shots.
Whilst using the ghost related scenes during the
choruses, I will also be using shots that will create be
used in order to create a distraction within the fears
going on inside the head of the actor in the music
video, these shots will consist of sports, therefore
these shots will be b-roll of what is the main focus of
the video in which is the fears. The music video will
have elements in which question the mental health
and stability of the main actor. Another part within the
music video will contain different aspect of surrealism,
RIP-O-MATIC
You should also construct a 15-20second Rip-o-matic
test reel using existing footage to convey the type of
video you want to make
STRUCTURAL
BREAKDOWN
Breakdown your track into it basic sections [e.g. intro,
verse, chorus, verse, etc] and apply broad visual ideas
to each section
You can use this as the master template for your
production, then add more shots to each section when
you develop your full visual plan
You should create a slide showing all the sections of
the song, then add a slide for each section with
timings, lyrics, what happens and details on specific
shots

You could storyboard and shot list each section as you

go, to break up the process.
LYRICS
Know, My only goal is to see, When I'm only fast asleep, it takes more than strength to
find, This peace of mind

So I'll hold, hold, hold, Hold it close to my heart, Beating with every step, Hold, hold,
hold it close

He sleeps alone, He needs no army where he's headed, 'Cause he knows, That they're
just ghosts, And they can't hurt him, if he can't see them, oh

And I may go, To places I have never been to, us to find, The deepest desires in my
mind

We, we only know what we see, 'Cause we're always fast asleep, Is it so hard not to
believe, That we'll never know?, Oh hold, hold, hold, Hold me close, I've never been
this far from home,, Hold, hold, hold me close

He sleeps alone, He needs no army where he's headed, 'Cause he knows, That they're
just ghosts, And they can't hurt him, f he can't see them, oh

And I may go, To places I have never been to, us to find, The deepest desires in my
mind

t's in my head, And I have said, That I must be like him now, He sleeps alone, He
sleeps alone

And one last chance, To make sense, Of what has long escaped us, He sleeps alone,
sleep alone
INTRO
Know, My only goal is to see, When I'm only fast asleep, it
takes more than strength to find, This peace of mind
The introduction to the song starts with establishing a
connection between the main actors conscious. When
getting shots I will try and create a eerie atmosphere, as
well as trying to establish the connection between the
conscious, this will important in creating a surreal
environment for my music video. The shots I will be getting
will also attempt to question reality, this will be important in
have a continuous style, throughout the music video. The
shots within my music video have been inspired from the
surrealist work of Michel Gondry, this will be creating shots
that begin to question the reality, although near the end of
the song will be reviled that the whole video was created
within the head of the main actor, which will also create
suspense throughout the whole video. The introduction of
the song is important in order to help begin the style of the
music video, in order to create meaning as well as the
importance of the conscious. The effects that will be used in
creating the video will be important in amplifying the
significance and the illusion in which are going to exist
CHORUS
He sleeps alone, He needs no army where he's headed, 'Cause
he knows, That they're just ghosts, And they can't hurt him, f he
can't see them, oh
The chorus of the song has connotations based around the
subconscious, and how someone has to battle their fears alone,
this gives the viewer the atmosphere relating to inner strength.
The use of ghosts is important in understanding a paranormal
element within the song, this makes the person begin to
question the mental stability and understanding within the song.
As the chorus is repeated throughout the song this is important
in helping to progress the message throughout the whole song.
The song in general fast paced although the chorus is done at a
tempo which is slightly faster that the other parts of the song
this creates tension therefore for the shots in which I want to
include are going to have fast paced cutting in order to try and
establish a more prominent connection with the song and the
video. In the shots I want them to have a paranormal element
therefore I want to create the illusion of ghosts as well as trying
to establish a eerie and creepy environment, in which becomes
more prominent within the chorus. The chorus is so important
FINAL VERSE
And I don't know, If in the morning I will be here, And if so, Let it be
known, That I was worthy, I was worthy, I was worthy, I was
The ending of the song will have shots where the fears that once
controlled and overcome the subconscious have been dealt with
this will be used in order to create a clear ending, and show the
ending of the fears within the mind. The song has many different
references, relating to the subconscious therefore this is why I want
to create an atmosphere relating to this. On the lyrics I was worthy
in which is repeated three time at the end of the line there will be
same shot repeated in order to make the illusion that the whole
time the video was based inside the head of the main actor in the
video. The reveal of that the whole video took place in the
conscious will be done by using a long close up shot on the face as
the background changes around the main actor this will be
important in understanding the thought process in the brain and
because of the shots which are given the illusion of the inner
conscious. The shots will be done in a clear setting this will give a
good contrast between the previous shots in order show that the
main actor has overcome his fears. In the final verse the words And
I dont know if in the morning I will be here this is important as it
shows the uncertainty of the future and to make the image more
vivid I will be using video to effect with dark imagery in order to
create the sense of a dark reality. Let it be know this is used in the
song in order to give the viewer a sense of achievement and self
worth, as they want to be remember, therefore when implementing

during production
You should broadly plan to the following structure:

- 1 week filming [plan for up to 2 days]

filmed]
SCHEDULE
I will start the music video filming on Wednesday 22 nd
March at 10:00am, at this point I will begin to get some
b-roll shot, this will consist different shots of a nature,
and this will be important in highlighting the main
subject of the music video. The filming will last for one
hour and half. I will then continue filming on the
following Thursday I will start filming again at 10:30am
and this will be of the main subject in the video, the
remaining of the filming will be done on that Saturday,
and this day will be used in order to film and combine
the previous footage filmed as well as adding new
footage to the mix. When filming these shots I will
need to hope that the weather is good as the image as
I wanted will need to be able to capture the image
without any distortion.
