Shooting Schedule
Shooting Schedule
Locations:
Shooting begins in Ward Jackson Park, continues through streets for shots of the singer. Moves to Burn Valley park for shot of girl on the swing. Shooting then continues through the streets until the singer reaches the final destination – a house, in which a party is taking place. Shots of the band playing will be shot, presumably, in college, unless we find a full band set-up elsewhere. One shot of the band will be shot at the house party, as we need the band to play as feathers are raining on them.
Time management:
Shooting the singers scenes, on the streets, we expect to take 2 days worth of shooting. This is to ensure that we know we have enough footage to complete the video, as opposed to shooting it all in one day and having to go back out and do it again after we have started editing. The party scenes will all be shot in one night, on Halloween, we are using Halloween as many people will be dressed in costumes and going to this party. Scenes of the band playing will be shot on a different day in college.
Costumes:
The singer will be wearing a modern outfit, preferably a V-Neck t-shirt, jeans and plimsoll shoes. The rest of the band will be following this theme, with traditional teenage wear, such as hoodies etc. Party-goers will be wearing fancy dress costumes, so we will expect to see pirates, a rabbit, ghosts, zombies and general Halloween outfits. The girl we are using will be wearing an ‘indie’ style of clothing, band t-shirt and scarf, skinny jeans and converse/plimsolls are examples of this. This is so that our target audience, teenagers and early adults, can relate to the story and style.

Target audience
Target audience research.
Artist: Select Start
Song: Baby, You Amaze Me (exclusive)
Our song fits in to the alternative electronica music genre. This links with many other bands from a similar genre such as Hawk Nelson, Head Automatica and many others, this genre of music is mainly influential to the rock music industry and interlinks it with the pop charts for the musical inspiration that it has. It usually attracts audiences who are fashionable; however contrasts it with the “skater boy” lifestyle. It attracts younger audiences, notably teenagers and young adults, due to the electronica elements songs such as this possess, which older listeners may not be up to date with.

These artists are from a similar genre

These songs are representative to the style of the music and how it involves heavy drumbeats and how the guitars use around about 134 bpm (beats per minute) to pick the fast paces sound but how they use a soft singer to show how two styles can be mixed.
