A2 Preliminary Evaluation Pre-Production

Before we started filming we needed to story board our music video and make lists of props and equiptment that we were going to need and use to make the music video.
We also had to assign roles within the group to make sure everything was organised and everyone knew what they were doing.

When story boarding we go the original video of of youtube and drew out all the shots and wrote the time length for each shot so we could match it up with the video and keep the length correct and timing in sync. Also we used the story board to create alternative shots incase some of the previous shots weren't able to be made/filmed.

We made a list of all the props needed to create the music video and assigned people who had the props to bring them in for certain dates when we needed them.
Some of the props we used: 

• Helmets 
• Drumsticks
• Guitars
• Drums
• Suits

We assigned the roles to the people who best suited them and did this as a group to make sure everyone was happy with the decisions being made.

Some of the roles assigned to people:

• Director: Sophie Nutt 
• Camera Operator: George Gibson
• (Lead Singer) Pharrell: Meg Rowland
• Guitarist 1: Dill Wakeford
• Guitarist 2: Joe Cuthbertson 

We also made a list of locations wee needed to shoot the music video in to make sure we had the right location. We knew we needed a dark location that we can put light up or on to make it a bit brighter.

Here are some of the locations:

• Main Hall
• AVS Studio
• Small Hall
• Gym

We chose the Main Hall because it had lights built into the ceiling and on the floor that we could use to get the correct lighting for the shots and we were also able to play the music out of the speakers so they could lip sync the song to make it look correct.
