This is my mood board displaying the different props and costumes I will need for my music video. I have selected specific clothes, footwear, accessories and props that I believe will suit my music video genre of indie/pop. I want my music video to look professional and refined and the clothes I have chosen reinforce this idea. It is important for me to think of how I want my actors to look so that I can ensure I take footage right the first time around, without needing to re-shoot and reshedule enabling myself to move and work quicker.
The type and colour of the characters clothing are an important element to my music video as they will need to relate to the theme of my music video - indie pop. In addition to this, the type of clothing my characters wear must interest my target audience which is men and women from the specific age group of 16-25. I will ask the main singer of my music video to wear a flannel top and jeans as these are common pieces of clothing associated with this particular genre of music. Furthermore, as I will shooting in the drama room at school which is very dark and surrounded by black walls, the singers clothing will need to be a little colourful so they don't blend in with the background behind. I will also ask Aaron to wear converse as these are typical items of clothing from the indie genre. In terms of the narrative sequences for my music video, I will ask my characters Victor and Sam to wear similar clothing to what they usually wear as I want my music video to look realistic and traditional. Moreover, as much of my footage will be taken outside, they will need to wear coats and scarfs as I will be filming during the winter months.
Props will also play an important role in my music video. For some parts, I will include scenes of my male singer playing the piano as part of my music video includes an instrumental at the beginning of the song. I will also include props such as a kite and chessboard for the narrative pieces of my video to fit the visuals of the song. This is ideal for my music video, as I plan to include flashbacks of the grandfather and grandson having fun and enjoying time together. Towards the end of the music video, the lyrics of the song talk about death. As this is quite a sensitive subject I will take footage in a graveyard, capturing the main singer walking down a footpath. I might also include footage I previously took at Brampton Graveyard as part of my location reece. I will also take a picture of Victor and Sam together and print it out for my main singer Aaron to hold, to show a connection between the narrative and perfomance sequences of my music video.
