This is the idea we had for our music video.
We did not create a story board as this would be a better understanding on what the finished music video might look like.
In this short section of video, we used two layers and made one smaller. We then brought the smaller one larger to fill the screen to give it the look as we are zooming into the placeholder. This will continue throughout the music film zooming in and out of different place holders.

Music video treatment


Treatment for my music video.

“Hardest button by button” by the white stripes. White Stripes play alternative Rock, so the music have a high tempo and a fairly fast beat.

We will start my video by having a medium close up shot with Will in the camera frame in front of a blank wall with a single or multiple placeholder on the wall behind him, (any colour background, making sure the colour doesn’t clash with the colour of the card for the placeholders) then have them touch the edge of the placeholder and the music while start.
Within the placeholder will be someone or myself playing an instrument in time with the music as it plays.

When an instrument stops that corresponding placeholder with that instrument in will be covered by moving in front of it, or touching the each of the holder to turn that frame off, to indicate the instrument isn’t there.
When the lyrics come in the placeholder with the singer will be turn on and can switch between the person in front of the placeholder the corresponding placeholder.
Each placeholder may have someone different playing each instrument or will be all the same person playing every instrument.
The get the Footage in the placeholder, i will be shooting each instrument separately in front of a white wall so it is clear to see what is going in in that placeholder. 

The Style of dress will be that of a casual teenager, however we might try to add the effect of the white stripes by adding contrasting colors into it. E.g. black and white or just black. 
The lighting will natural or artificial depending on our location we shoot. we plane to work in different environment, both inside and out side.
