Treatment For Lights.

This is an update of the treatment from the previous, a lot more accurate and in depth from before.

Mise - En - Scene

Costume ideas: Costume: We want our band to have star quality. How we style ourselves will help potray this. So it's very important we get it perfect. The style we're looking for is a mixture of a quirky yet simplistic, metallic delicacy. Kira will be wearing a mixture of Golds, Whites, blacks. Blouses and skirts. Makeup and hair will be simplistic, but noticable. With a smokey are to create a dramatic look but matched with a nude lip to keep the look grounded. Benwill be styled in Blazers Gold statement jewelry with a pop of glitter in something small like shoes. The colours will be similar with blacks gold and whites.

This is a polyvore set made by ben and i (bens on left mine on the right) Which gives a collage ofthe idea that we want for our costume design lots of blacks, creams and whites. With edgy bursts like the red nail polish and the glittery shoes.

The props we we will use are the fairy lights, antique box and an antique camera. The fairy lights will be used to drape onto the backdrop when we do the studio shoot, used so we can bur them and make them out of focus creating a bokeh effect. that is a signature styling that will be used throughout the whole piece of our project. The antique box will be used for the end of the narrative it represents what i find to bring me back to reality. The camera is what ben uses throughout the narrative which helps represent the idea of being followed and judged through the perspective of others. The props make a very important aspect to the video, even though there are only a few they make every bit of the difference as they are representative in their own ways to the whole piece.

Location:

Almost the same as our original idea. A studio, in the college, draped with dark curtains and decorated with fairy lights that will be out of focus. But the forest ( due to circumstances of the time of year filming) Will look autumn warm in the depths to make it seem more quirky. The warm look works perfectly with our video luckily. This will be set in christchurch park (shown on the map below)

The Cinematography will be very precise. It will contain a good amount of close ups of the artist inbetween shots to keep the main focus on them, this also helped by lots of mid shots showing off the costume worn by the artists as the styling in videos are very imporant, it's also important to show off the effort to the audience. In the outside shots there be lots of long shots and high angle shots to keep the charecters distanced to show the distancing that i feel especially from reality whilst im running away looking for 'home' Whilst the running commences, the camera will pan to follow to keep with the action. There will be lots of close ups of objects, e.g. the antique box to show the importance of the object within the video.

The sound that has been pre-recorded we will use and then sync it with the music when it comes to the editing. We will mouth along to the words when recording for the affect that we were singing it there and then. We will do this by using Bens IPad with the track on it then use it in the studio to mouth along too.

When it comes down to the editing we use lots of cuts giving it a jolty look, which is quite quirky but pop genre at the same time. Lots of dissolves and cross fades helping to gain continuity and getting the lyrics in sync with how we have mouthed it when we filmed.
