Make-Up and Special FX
Chapter Twenty-Three
We looked at frozen make up for our music video. Sasha Ward-Smith is a student who studies a lot of special FX make-up and we have discussed the possibilities of making someone look frozen.
There are a lot of videos on youtube showing tutorials in frozen make-up and making someone look iced up. We decided using someone with a beard really works because it adds effect.

Costumes
Chapter Twenty-Two
I looked at costume for our shoots. In the performance shoot we would like the band to wear suits and flat caps. It is very Peaky Blinder's esque.
All the characters are very hard looking, they are tough men and have a mafia illegal feel about them. The set is an illegal storehouse and very english.
Storyboarding
Chapter Twenty-One
Storyboarding is a big factor for creating a successful music video.
"A storyboard is a graphic organizer in the form of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence."
It creates a visual guide for when filming the shots for the video. It is a visual plan. Our story board is aimed to be between 80-120 shots long. We have two locations and these will be shown in every other storyboard shot. Switching between the two. Some sections will have several shots in the same location.

Change of Plan
Chapter Twenty
Being away for 7 days with flu and infections set my group back slightly. We decided it was time to change our idea. Instead of the poker idea we had the idea of filming in a meat freezer. The band will still sing live. We still plan to keep Ted as the singer because we think he is the only man who looks like he could sing the song.
As a group we are struggling to find a meat freezer, or one of good size. They are cold and hard to stay in for more than 15 minutes.
We might need to reconsider this again.
