These are the picture of the two possible girls we are going to use in our music video. Both girls are willing to particpate in the video but we are undecided which one would be best suited for the role. We think both girls have good looks but we are unsure which look will be best for our video. We would however be happy to use either of the girls here, but it will depend on the day of filming as to which one is avaible.
We have two locations for our project, which are, on Eastbourne beach and a small woodland area in Lewes. I have been out to take pictures of each of these locations, which i then used to put in the anamiatic which is a digital storyboard of our music video.
For the costume we are planning to have a 1920's flapper dress for the black and white section of the video, this is so it is fitting with the era which we are trying to achieve. Also this is the style that we have decided, from our research, is best suited to the band and the type of music that they play. The video will be mostly black and white apart from the chorus. In the chorus we are going to bring the video back into a modern day, which will see Florence wearing the bohemian style clohes which she is known for.We intend the girl to have subtle yet effective make-up so it will look as if she is made up but not in a tarty way. I think bright lipstick will go well with the costume. This is the type of dress which we want to use for the black and white scenes in our video, but maybe with the dress abit shorter.
We also want the dress to look be flowing to give a better effect and to create a sort of spaced out, almost drugged effect, this is the type of dress we are going to use in the scenes in the forest. I think it while go well with the effect that we are trying to achieve. Also we would like the dress to have some bright colours to add effect, but again this all depends on the budget of what we can spend on extras.
For the colour scenes we want to show abit of Florence's real style so we are going to use inspiration fron her own wardrobe to style our girl for the video. We want the dress to have a simple design as we don not need her to be to bold in these scenes. I think a plain beige short dress would suit this scene best because it is keeping Florence natural looking, and there is no mention of craziness in second half of the song so there is no need for her to be wild looking.
We have two locations for our project, which are, on Eastbourne beach and a small woodland area in Lewes. I have been out to take pictures of each of these locations, which i then used to put in the anamiatic which is a digital storyboard of our music video.
These are pictures from the location of the small forest, that I took. We have decided to shoot here because we thought it was a good location for the feel we are trying to achieve. We want to achieve a feeling of insomnia. We are going to paint some leaves bright colours, and have Florence prancing around the forest, looking lost. Also in this small woodland area there is a large pond, which i think could lok really effective if we are able to shot on a sunny day because we can use the reflections and brightness for the pond to create a more spaced out effect.
These are the pictures which I went and took on Eastbourne beach, which is our second location. We wanted to shoot here because to go with the song title 'Swimming', i felt we needed to have a location near the sea. The atmosphere of the beach in Eastbourne is very traditional. The beach has an old fashioned pier, which was built in 1870, though it looks like something out of the 1920's, and the old wooden groynes add to the old fashion feel. We also needed to all be able to get to the location easily, and this beach provided that for us. Other options which we could have used were the beaches in Hastings or in Seaford. Owing to the fact we are filming in winter means that the beaches and quiet and not to busy which makes it easy for filming.
I have decided to have a contrast between the 1920s and modern day because i felt it gave the video abit more edge instead of it all being set in one period. The aim is to get the video looking like half set in the 1920's and half in modern times. Whether this will be possible once we start editing is something we will have to deal with. Hopefully we will be able to get the effects we are after.
