Planning and Organising.

We thought that the best way to organise everything and speak to all of the people who were in our group and in our video would be to have an inbox with everyone on it on Facebook. It was there that we realised that Mike, who was going to be our male artist could not make the dates that we wanted to go and film. 

It was a good idea that we had this inbox because it meant we could keep everyone up to date and everyone could see our idea's and discuss when everyone was free. It also meant that Danielle, Harris and I could find out what was going on so that we could keep up to date with everything on our blogs.

Planning

Some of the idea's that we have come up with for our music video.

 

 We have decided that we want our music video to have the theme of "love" and to have a romantic story behind it, with our artist being in love with a female who has to leave and can't stay with him.

 We have decided that in one of the scenes, we want our artist to be singing in the middle of the beach and to be surrounded by tea lights. We think that this creates a very romantic atmosphere, which is what we wanted seeing as our music video is all about a loving relationship.

 We are going to have some scenes where our artist is going to be sitting on the roof of a beach hut. We thought that this was a fun and quirky idea, and makes our video more interesting and seem more fun, rather then all being serious about his problems with his girlfriend.

 Our song is called "Hazel Eyes" and was originally written by a man called Rick Lown, who has given us his full permission to do a music video for his song. He said he would like to see it once we have finished.

We wanted our artist and his girlfriend to be flying a kite to symbolise that at the time they are free and don't have to answer to anyone. It shows that they are having fun. This will all change as the video progresses and it gets closer to when she has to leave him.

Actors + Actresses.

We were going to use 2 people that we knew, named Sian and Mike. However, due to recent filming issues we won't be able to use them anymore.

However, instead, Harris and myself will take the role as the artist and the girl who is in the music video. Although this is a last minute decision, Harris already knows the lyrics to the song, and can play some guitar, and i know all of the shots and how we want the video to look.
