New storyboard ideas















































Here is a small outline of the new dieas I have created for the music video, in the form of a storyboard. The arrows between two boxes represent the change of camera shots and effects within the scene which will then link to the next scene. Here is a detailed list of what each box entails, in order;

Sitting down by the recording area, rapping on the mic through the window, then a one shot, pan across to the door as the artist walks past, then tracking him as he reaches the door to outside and opens it.
Transition: White fade out

Then facing other side of the door, pan across to be followed by the artist as he walks through the streets. The use of a white fade out to represent a chane of atmosphere and setting. He will then interact with a friend, to link with the line "familiar face". Then they will walk together and he will continue to rap. As the line "away with the fairies" appears, a special effects will appear to represent fairies, with a tilt up (possible trumbone shot) to the sky, and then back down to the artist as he continues to rap to the song.

He will then continue to rap, and then take out a piece of paper from his pocket, which will be a picture. He will look at it, which then it will cut to a shot from his point of view, where we will see what he is looking at, which will be a live video of himself rapping.

It will then fade to a scenario with building works and himself, where the chorus will be played. A cut will appear when the chrous has ended and the phrase "nothing ever goes to plan" is heard, to represent an interrogation. It will then fade back to the streets aroudn the phrase "so I chase". The artist will then talk to his friend on the verse "when blud when".

It will finally cut to a scene of a tunnel with some specific lighting, possibly orange, when it says "I can't take it no more", to represent isolation and being alone.

I guess you can see the idea of what I am thinking here. I will be using the artist's actions, and settings to represent the lyrics in the song, which will also include a large clothing prop variety to do so. It could be mroe challenging for me than my original idea, also with the idea of a one take shot in the beginning as he walks from the recording studio to oudside. The other shot I am thinking will be difficult, is the trombone tilt shot, which is itself very hard to accomplish successfully. If I am able to use these shots, then it should be a very promising first music video.
