Finishing of the story board- Emily

I am happy to say that we have now completed our storyboard for our music video. As you know we met in Starbucks in Leicester to get our work complete; all talent starts in Starbucks. It took just over two and a half hours to get it complete and up to scratch. There was a few hic-ups in the way like Vic mentioned in an previous post, but all was completed, now we just need to upload the anomatic which is in the process of being made. As all groups do there was a slight clash of ideas but we worked around it to allow all of our ideas to be into the video. When we were there we also finalised the costume and make-up to allow us to collect all the props we need to do the video. most of the props are pretty easy to collect i.e Jack Daniels bottles and cigarette but the chaise longue and the instruments are not so easy so planning ahead was a good idea.

Research & Discussion- Jack Reid

As a group we thought it would be better to collectively get together and  get the ball rolling by thinking of ideas, music genres, people to have in the video, locations and songs because that way we are able to agree and ensure that every member of the group is happy with the project at hand.
During this discussion we came up with a few different music ideas but ended choosing a song by The Pretty Reckless, we thought this because we liked the more mainstream rock genre as we thought it would be more approachable to different audiences.
 We also thought that a mutual friend of the group Trinity Maloy dresses alike and knows many of the groups songs. This will come in handy when styling the video and whenthe aspect of lipsyncing comes into it. 
 Vic researched on the internet and found a location near by which doesnt try and that would be fitting for one of the songs by the group.
 So after further diliberation within the group about songs clothing and genre of music, we chose to the song Factory Girl for numerous reasons. One being that the song doesnt have a video, this meaning we are able to think of our own ideas without being influenced by the ideas of their creative team.
