Introduction On this page i will attempt to create different concepts of CD Cover art with other people's photos that i find, these will almost exactly represent each cover side i will create myself, getting an idea of how different concepts will look in my eyes, giving a creative range which will then be narrowed down. Concept Art 1 In a lot of the music video, it portrays the narrative in a lot of shots during sunset, this enhances the shots in my opinion and further reinforces the connotations of an era ending (the era of problems in this case for the character). Sunsets are also very appreciated by most people and considered beautiful, this is also one reason i decided to have a sunset throughout this cover. The main character and their dog would be on the front cover with the name of the song 'Heroes', if i decide to choose this concept, i would have the name of the song just as large and in the same position as it stands out to people looking at it, as well as...

Introduction The narrative of my music video is of a man and a man's best friend leaving all their problems behind and going on an adventure to get away from everything. To achieve this sense of narrative i will need to show this clearly through the shots i use. Plan At the start, i intend to have shots of the character getting up and getting ready to leave. There at the moment is no clear reason for why this is happening. To get the idea to the audience about the start i am planning i decided it would be great to show the problem through everything. When filming, i intend to have sticky notes, or bits of paper everywhere which shouts the problems, such as bills, tax, unemployment, any sort of problem that the average adult would face. When it comes to filming shots, i will either get a load of paper with a marker and simply write the problem on it, and then tape the paper to completely cover every item that the character doesn't use. For example, i will have my character...

Introduction On this page i will go through in detail my first day filming my music video, where i went, the shots i got and why. Day one  First i went up to my local park area called 'Castle Hill' in Mere, Wiltshire. I decided to go here because it was the highest place within miles and very local. It was here i wanted to film some shots of the second half of my music video which featured me dogs. I went up and spent around 10-15 minutes location scouting for areas to film, on the very top of the hill i found a stone which navigated north, east, south and west. It stood still on its own near the edge of the hill which is around 20-30 metres high and looked perfect for some shots i had in mind. I placed my tripod and had my camera film myself from metres away whilst i stood on top of it for one of the shots, this shot being very symbolic, representing freedom as the character stands high up and looks down on the empty fields of freedom. I then spent the next 30 minutes...
