2.11.12 - Final Storyboard

Final Storyboard: This is the final storyboard during the planning phase of the music video, however there are a few scenes which I am unhappy with but when I am filming I will fix.

Shot:
Location/ Audio/ Other:


Location: Pathway, near green open space
Audio: Introduction of song, diegetic of couple laughing/talking, fades into non-diegetic music of strumming of guitar from introduction of song
Other: Use of dolly to follow couple. As the couple aren’t in shot it creates the enigma of who are these people? What is their relationship to each other? Through the use of the focus on the ground through the high angle shot I will be able to introduce the titles for this music video such as: the production company, the artists name, title of the song
Location: Pathway, near green open space
Audio: Introduction of song, diegetic of couple laughing/talking, fades into non-diegetic music of strumming of guitar from introduction of song
Other: The titles may appear on a piece of card with the motif of the flower in the corner, however I may edit the titles to appear on top of the video using Final Cut Express, this I feel with give it a better finish to the overall music video – allowing it to seem like a professional music video
Location: Green Open space
Audio: Verse 1, lines: “As we sit there…feeling so close”
Other: This scene will appear as a date between the couple. I have chosen this setting to show jealousy through the colour green, but also to show the couples isolation/ they are the focus of each other’s worlds (I could possibly have people walking through the shot to emphasise the couple only having eyes for each other however I think it would take away from the romantic genre of the music video). It is at the very beginning that the flower motif is introduced. I decided to use a carnation because it is a symbolism of affection, love, passion but also is not the cliché flower of love (the rose)

Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: To show time has passed this is another date, another location, this introduces the breaking down of the relationship, the flower motif is the only constant throughout this music video
Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: The audience are introduced to the couple looking happy just being with each other, this quickly deteriorates
Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Boyfriend pulls his hand away, this indicates the subtext that he is no longer interested in this relationship.

Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Series of close ups, use of slow motion to emphasise the significance of the boyfriend pulling away his hand


Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Possibly birds-eye view of the hand pulling away


Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Extreme close up


Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Extreme close up
Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: Reaction shot, through the use of a shot reverse shot. The first mid shot will be of the artist due to Goodwin’s theory: Demands of the record label will include lots of close ups, I have incorporated this theory into my music video and will be featured later on in the storyboard.
Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: The next shot (the reverse) will be of the boyfriend, trying to look elsewhere because he knows what he’s just done is wrong.
Location: Angelo Italian Eating Place
Audio: Verse 1/chorus 1, lines: “You turn to face me…I could have been the one”
Other: The next mid shot will be of the artist once more, to show her shock but also her disappointment in the guy she loved.

Location: Waiting by a street light
Audio: Verse 2, lines: “Blowing hot and cold…said to me a lie?
Other: To show time passing we will us markers so that the shots can fade into each other. So we will film in this location twice, I have researched the sun set time so that I can be sure to organise the filming schedule so that we can film when it’s light and then again when it’s slightly darker

Location: Waiting by a street light
Audio: Verse 2, lines: “Blowing hot and cold…said to me a lie?
Other: This will be when it’s darker, the artist will get out her phone and try calling the boyfriend. This will lead into a series of close ups and lip syncing

Location: Waiting by a street light/ Bedroom 1
Audio: Verse 2, lines: “Which might have…pain, pain”
Other: Parallel editing so that the two scenes appear on the screen at the same time. As the artist waits for her date, the boyfriend has either forgotten or just can’t be bothered this is an enigma for the audience to decide upon for themselves.
Location: Waiting by a street light
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “I said no…love is like hell”
Other: Close up of artist to emphasise her emotions but also Goodwin’s theory as she is an up and coming artist.

Location: Walking down the street
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “I said no…love is like hell”
Other: Series of shots slowly getting closer to the artist, starting with an extreme long shot

Location: Walking down the street
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “I said no…love is like hell”
Other: Series of shots slowly getting closer to the artist, long shot
Location: Walking down the street
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “I said no…love is like hell”
Other: Series of shots slowly getting closer to the artist, mid shot
Location: Walking down the street
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “I said no…love is like hell”
Other: Series of shots slowly getting closer to the artist, ending with another close up, with her either closing her eyes or looking to the sky, to show she is remembering a previous date (picnic date) however it will differ from the original showing of it in the first verse

Location: Open green space
Audio: Chorus 2, lines: “A tragedy…I could have been the one”
Other: There will be a fade in and out to a memory of the picnic date however this time I will have an insert of the artist on another timeline so that appears as though there is one Corrina experiencing the moment, and another looking back on it in disgust because of what has changed since that moment

Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “And as you…into the ground”
Other: This is the climax of the song, where the couple are arguing. I will use a pan to follow the artist into the room. During the filming of this scene I will respect the 180° rule. The difficulty will be making sure that both of the people are in the shot, due to the layout of the setting as well as the height difference.
Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “I find myself weeping in silence”
Other: Although when the boyfriend was sitting down the artist held the higher status as soon as he stands up, the roles are reversed to how they were originally – her clinging to him, and him trying to pull away. I will use an over the shoulder shot so that the audience are sympathetic towards the artist. There will be a mid shot of the couple showing their argument.

Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “weeping in silence”
Other: An over the shoulder shot of the boyfriend walking out on her – multiple connotations such as: walking out on their relationship, had enough of her etc.
Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “Slowly sinking”
Other: Close up of the artist to show her emotions, create sympathy with the audience

Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “slowly sinking into the ground”
Other: Camera stays static as the artist falls out of shot, the artist will first fall to her knees then to the floor
Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “slowly sinking into the ground”
Other: Camera stays static as the artist falls out of shot, the artist will first fall to her knees then to the floor
Location: Living room
Audio: Bridge, lines: “slowly sinking into the ground”
Other: There will be a close up of the artist as she closes her eyes and there will then be a blackout to show how emotionally drained the artist is but also to show the beginning of the 2nd equilibrium coming

Location: N/A
Audio: Bridge, lines: “Where did I go wrong?”
Other: Black out
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3, lines: “I said no, bliss can’t end”
Other: Another close up of the artist, still respecting the 180° rule, whilst inspired by the ‘Life on Mars’ scene, the artist is in the same position but a different location.
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3, lines: “So suddenly”
Other: The artist has made up her mind; she is no longer going to be with the boyfriend. The camera will stay static once more to reveal the montage of photos and petals behind her although it will not be very clear causing an enigma until the slow pan.
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot revealing the petals and photos spread across the bed
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot revealing the petals and photos spread across the bed, the artist will take a box from off the dressing table, cliché way of getting over a boyfriend – to put everything into a box
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot revealing the petals and photos spread across the bed, the artist will take a box from off the dressing table, cliché way of getting over a boyfriend – to put everything into a box. Possible POV shot from the artists perspective
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot of the artist clearing away the petals and photos, reminiscent to begin with however with the build-up of more regular guitar strumming the clearing away will become more rushed 
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot of the artist clearing away the petals and photos, reminiscent to begin with however with the build-up of more regular guitar strumming the clearing away will become more rushed 
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: long shot, once the petals and photos are cleared the last thing to go into the box is the flower, which will be snapped in half. To calm herself down the artist will push down slightly on to the top of the box
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: The artist will take the box and put her coat on, creating the enigma from the audiences – what is she going to do with the box? Where is she going?
Location: Bedroom 2
Audio: Chorus 3/4, lines: “Should have known…so suddenly”
Other: The artist will take the box and put her coat on, creating the enigma from the audiences – what is she going to do with the box? Where is she going?

Location: Bonfire, garden
Audio: Chorus 4, lines: “For all you know…will be the one”
Other: Tilt of the bonfire with the artist standing behind it

Location: Bonfire, garden
Audio: Chorus 4, lines: “For all you know…will be the one”
Other: Once the artist is in shot, there will be a mid shot of her dropping the box into the bonfire

Location: Bonfire, garden
Audio: Chorus 4, lines: “For all you know…will be the one”
Other: The artist will watch the box then will look straight into the camera

Location: Bonfire, garden
