VIDEO SHOT LIST

Here we have created two shot lists, one for our performance shots and one for our narrative. We have used our reverse storyboard to understand what kind of camerawork is conventional for our genre, and we have applied it to our shot list. We have also thought about composition, shot distances and briefly editing. Click the image to view the shot lists.

STORYBOARD

Above is the storyboard for the narrative section of our video. We developed the story of a cowboy and his lover, that takes place in the wild west. When we originally came up with this idea, we had to think carefully, as mise-en-scene and locations etc. would be very specific. We have listed the shot types and length, and also sketched out what the shot will look like. Below the sketches is a short description of what will be happening in the shot.

VIDEO TIMELINE

Here we have created a video timeline, which we will work from when shooting, and filming the video. In the center we have a timeline of the song, above is our song lyrics, and below is our narrative. We have written notes around the timeline for additional features, aswell as drawn small pictures for a basic storyboard to follow. From doing this we now know what we have to shoot, in what order, and the timings in which the shots will be placed with the song. Click the image above to view the timeline full size.

REVERSE STORYBOARD

Here I have created a reverse storyboard of the performance in a professional music video by The Lumineers. I have closely analysed the conventional shot lengths, angles, movements etc. In order to try and stick to the genre when production our music video. From studying this professional text I now understand the conventional camera work of performance in the folk genre. Click the image above to view the reverse storyboard.
