Planning

To kick off the conceptualization of my video I will be planning the music video from scratch till  I have all of my details ready to create my finished product

Time to analyse

Choosing my song was no easy feat. Scratch fighting dragons and going on a conquest in the highest story of the cloud castle , THIS is the real deal.

Analysing Analyse

Musicians aren't that far off from being being poets (well thom yorke isn't). Lyrics are a vital part of understanding music therefore, analyzing it was important as well.

Naming my Product

To start off since i am doing the project for my Media A2 music video without a group and the artist i chose produced a solo song I too went along with the idea of creating the artist for my music promotions package as a solo artist.

A rough Idea

Today I sat down and hashed out a rough preview of what I imagined my main narrative to be alone with some of the main shots but I do believe this a long way from the final thought out process.

Shaping it further 

After the first synopsis that was vague in it's direction and focused only on the main shots rather than a cohesive abstract conceptual video I sat down and discussed my idea with my teacher , and well the internet ( art can give you a lot of ideas) and came up with a much clearer picture of direction.

Mood Board

Treatment

The music video opens on the  instrumental chorus of Thom Yorke's Analyse. The first shot consists of a still shot with the subject ; a white sheet hanging like a body bag or a makeshift cloth swing for a baby, swings back and forth almost like a baby is swung  to make the baby stop crying.

Storyboard

So far my ideas have been conceptual with one moodboard that reflects my inspirations. To give it a further element of planning making a storyboard was naturally the next step. Not to say the most painful step so far. It might have actually made me cry but that's just between me and you.

Shot list

A blueprint is necessary for any work that requires building and planning. A shot list does that for any production process. planning out each and every shot as it will be done ensures that minimal reshooting is required for any project

Puppeteering

The first person that i had to cast for was the protagonist of course who created the narrative fuzz and acted as a representative of identity by feeling anguish under the ministrations of the dreary red hands. This role i cast for my ex group member Hiba Jafri with whom i could never start my group work as she left in early october to start A levels all over again.

The Factory

With ideas revolving around dripping fake blood , of perfection born out of molding and training , and persons who put their hand down your throat ( metaphorically) to rearrange your pieces to their preference, a location was hard to find. The idea i had whipped up was conceptual in nature and the things i wanted to get showcase were not only hard to showcase but also portrayed the problem of where to showcase. I knew i needed some obscure location with nondescript setting that was perhaps interlinked with a touch of rugged humane imperfection and the ways they are built on to be made a certain way. My first idea of a location was a building that was in between construction , where i could find rubble and broken brick walls. This idea also quickly became hard to pull of due to the nature of socio-political landscape of Pakistan making it highly unsafe for me as a girl to roam around nondescript remote locations like these. The second thought was something I believe will lend a lot to my idea and will help it grow. My father co-owns a factory where i could easily find nondescript locations due to the nature of the area ( an industrial location with a lot of free land far out to the city. After Building my rough synopsis of my concept and then visiting the location i got to borrow a lot from the location itself for the integrity of the music video and have it integrate ideas of underlying marxist layers of the concept of socialisation. I took a took and decided to make small clips to show how i developed my final synopsis and idea.

Mise-en-scene

Calculating all aspects of the set including light, stage direction as well as location and costumes is something done in mise en scene of a visual work. I went ahead and created a presentation to showcase these aspects.

The budget in acquiring items for this work was much much higher than the budget for my A1 project.

 

To make a list :

  • Since the location was much much farther away than any usual route the days I went by myself with..

May I use your work

To use Thom Yorke's work produced by XL recordings , i must contact the subsequent company and ask them for permission and a license to use their song to produce my music video. I mean of course I could do it the men way and go ahead use it anyway but no , let's keep in mind the good habits book we all had in nursery and stick to honesty.
