Our planning went through a pretty step-by-step process, we finished something before moving on to the next part of our process. The first thing we wanted to do before even researching was select the song based on the one we felt the strongest idea for and the most significant connection to, we didn't want to do a song that our group didn't feel was interesting or appealing and we also wanted to pick a song that we felt we could make an interesting video for. We settled for a little honey because we liked how upbeat it was and that it had lyrics that could convey a love story.
We made a quick schedule that we edited as we knew what we needed to do, it looked like this
Afterward, we began researching other artists like our chosen artist as well as the record label behind Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats in order to get a better understanding of the aesthetics associated with our preassigned genre. Once we did a sufficient amount of research and began to get an idea of what our brand would look like we decided to begin planning the music video, first we came up with an idea that sounded appealing and doable with our resources and allotted time. Once we had an idea we figured out when we could film it that was most convenient for the whole group and we scheduled it.
In class, we came up with a scene by scene time marks for which scene would be with which part of the song, this entire timeline was on a google doc that we would use during the filming process to skip to the specific part of the song when we were on that segment, this proved to be EXTREMELY useful. It looked like this:
We brainstormed several ideas for the order of events and scenes that would be used to describe our story for the audience and then wrote them all down. Then we were ready to film.
Now we need to edit and create the PowerPoint and we will be ready to present.
