Costumes
Shoot with Main Actress
Red Lipstick - This is a typical colour of the indie-rock genre, symbolising being rebellious and passionate thus appealing to my target audience as they are likely to hold similar values. For example, they would expect the band to be passionate and serious about their music. It also enforces her femininity whilst still suggesting her to be edgy, and this with fairly basic eye makeup allows her lips to stand out significantly.Red Velvet Dress - This deep colour and material fits with the warm atmosphere of the room. Such style also portrays her as somewhat unique and quirky yet still fashionable. This again appeals to my target audience as they are likely to be individualists or mainstreamers believing themselves to be individualists thus will aspire to such people.

Production Diary - 9/11/11
This week I have continued to get audience feedback from people who fit into my target audience, receiving feedback and considering how peoples comments may affect my plans for my music video n terms of how to improve it. All my comments can be found on my audience feedback page.
I also cut out each frame from my storyboard and placed them onto Adobe Premiere Pro. I added the song and placed them in the timeline to fit the song and the duration of each shot. This is my animatic, it will help me when I start to shoot and then edit my video as I will be able to keep a clear idea of my plan and simply match the real shots to the animatic. However, after doing this I decided I wanted faster cuts, so this is now a basic skeleton of what I plan to be my final music video.
I continued with my planning to create a risk assessment, this involved considering all the potential risks and problems that may occur during my shoot and how to avoid or overcome them. This will make sure I am as prepared as possible in preparation for my shoot.

Test Sequence
This is my test sequence I discussed previously, which I created in order to get used to the cameras and the software I will be using whenI create my real music video.
Risk Assessment
Risk Assessment
I had to create a risk assessment of potential hazards when shooitng my music video, this ensures I am able to deal with them and avoid them when possible. It preents me having to postpone my video, or reshoot it if any problems occured, such as the camera running out of battery.

Animatic
This is my animatic, which will give me a basic idea as to how my video and choice of shots will look and work with my song. I cut each frame from my storyboard into a seperate picture and placed it onto the timeline where I also dropped in my chosen music. I chose the use the program Adobe Premiere, as I have used it before and it is what I will be creating my actual music video in later in my work.

Production Diary
This week I have continued to receive audience feedback on my work, including my digipak and my general ideas for my music video. I have also continued o look at similar music videos for inspiration, I found on I felt to be especially effective in shooting solely in close ups. These can all be found on my inspirations page.
I also completed the story board that has a basic outline of my shots and where they will come in the song, this will help me when shooting as it will remind me of what shots I need and for what duration. I used the timeline to do this in order to match the right shots to the different lyrics. This will ensure I get the necessary footage and do not forget any vital scenes, it also helps me to visualise what my video will look like.
