Permission for shooting

Gloria Jeans Cafe is the location where major scenes of the music video are to be shot. Since it is a private business, it was important to take permission for shooting to prevent any complications afterward (during the actual production). Thereafter, I sent an email to them, asking for permission to shoot.


The next day I went to Gloria Jeans to ask the manager as well. He didn't allow us to shoot inside the cafe, however, we were allowed to film scenes in the area outside the cafe where tables and chairs had been set. Due to the sudden change in plans, I had to change some of the scenes that were originally included in the storyboard. Rather than shooting indoor, now all those scenes are supposed to be shot outdoor. Moreover, the scene in which the girl (Aroob) asks the manager about her purse had to be changed to Aroob asking another customer (who had been seated in front of her) about her purse.

Media Assessement

In this video, we went full swing on editing and mise-en-scene.  Action-Match and short takes prevented the video from being boring due to the limited camera angles and movements. Animation, adding layers of lower opacity, black and white tint effect, reverse and repeat effect made the music video look more interesting. Write-on and flash effects were used to introduce the title in an innovative way.  We used two studio lights, positioned at 45 degrees from the centre, with translucent white and red filters. A third light was used to form a rim of light behind the actress.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rfe_siD6IE

Research on Genres

I want to create a music video following the comedy and romance genre. To create such a text, I looked into the romance and comedy genre conventions that I could follow. These are some of the important points I noted down.  ROMANCE: COMEDY: I came across a table that showed the types of comedy. To my surprise, visual comedy (through editing) was not included.

Planning My Music Promotional Video

Even though, I have a general idea of the storyline of my music video, thinking of specific situations I want to portray can be challenging. I don't want to base my music video on a single problem which will make it very boring, so I've decided to incorporate many different situations in the video in a jumbled order. I made rough sketches of the different shots I wanted to take and the effects of wanted to add.                      I want to take a long video clip in which the actor is in the middle of the road and cars are moving beside him. The clip will be sped up to create a timelapse with lines of light created by the lights of the car.
