Production Log Week 2

As of this week we have started on our script for the music video, this consists of us using different camera language and different shots to match the song we have chosen, last week we decided what song we would pick and we picked mine so this week we have been trying to script out our ideas so that when we come to recording the music video we will know how it will look and what we have to do as we can follow the script. The hard part about doing this script is that we must come up with different shots that move smoothly but also matches the songs speed, so when me and my partner are writing out the script we exchange ideas and we go with the one that sounds more realistic, as the song we chosen is fairly slow we will need to come up with about 100-150 shots this is roughly 2 second's per shot, the reason for having so many is because their is a specific beat that we are following, in my song the main instrument is a piano and you can hear the piano every 2-3 second's, so every time you hear the piano key we will change shot so its basically cutting to the beat but to the piano, this will make our music video run smoothly as the sound and the visual will be working together allowing the audience to stay focused, this stops them from just watching the clips and blanking out the song.
