Story Boarding Process

We looked at the whole groups ideas and images after listening to the track and decided together on how we could combine some of the ideas and build on some to create the video. Initially we really like the idea of having black and white with one thing in the frame being in colour. The idea of using black and white is to create an edgy look and also as a visual metaphor for how we want the bands image to reflect, so the black and white makes their look a bit edgy and out of the ordinary to make them stand out from similar bands. The idea behind the single object in colour is to have something relevant to the song or band, this idea is currently a work in progress. The whole of this idea was expanded and we decided we like the idea of having coloured rain as well as having a single image in colour. the coloured rain will be used as a device to slowly come out of the black and white. We thought the rain could wash away the black and white throughout the video restoring colour. We also liked the idea of doing blurred light, for example…




However, we are not sure we have to time or technical capability to do this and we also thought it may be one devce too many.

After coming up with several initial ideas we started planning how we were going to pitch the ideas to our band. We are lucky as a group because we are working with a real band, so it is our job to help create them a video that reflects their image as a band and that makes them stand out from other bands for record labels to see. We are excited about the possible reactions to our ideas from the band and are hoping to get some initial ideas from them and their ideas on our initial ideas.
