A Quick Note on the Storyboards and other Planning Details...

I am currently working on the storyboarding for our music video (a task which has been made MUCH easier by the construction of our shot list...I'm not going into 5 pages worth of storyboards blind!)
If all goes to plan, they should be completed and posted on the blog between Tuesday or Wednesday this week.
Additionally, Gemma and I took the time to draw out a mindmap detailing all the asthetic qualities needed for each sequence in our video (costume, makeup, hair, setting, props etc) and that hopefully should be scanned in and posted around the same time.
As a group we have decided to pair off and take charge of two seasons in these pairs to construct and direct. Gemma and I were asigned to Autumn and Winter, whilst Roisin and Rachel recieved Spring and Summer.
We believe this is a brilliant plan of action for a variety of reasons. Firstly, it spreads the responsiblity across the group and allows each of us to be involved in multiple roles. Secondly, we have paired up according to our styles and type of vision, which makes decision making much easier. Thirdly, this shared sense of control will mean that a mix of styles and 'looks' will emerge, further heightening our theme of 'change'. And fourthly, it will mean that the mammoth task which is costume, hair and makeup can be divided between us, making organisation a whole lot easier.
Of course, we will all pitch in to each others sequences, but in moderation; that's how the best ideas are made!
