Music Video Treatment

As part of the planning process for our music video, I have produced a Treatment for the music video. In this Treatment, things such as Props, Lighting, Characters, Location and the Synopsis/Plot of the music video will be included.

Bench (Location)
Lake (Location)

Location

The Location we have decided to choose for our music video is either Osterley Park or Hounslow Heath. We have decided to pick this as our location as we feel that a park would be perfect for our filming, along with the scenery which can represent the randomness of the lyrics. We thought that the park would be the best location for our filming as on our storyboard, I've included the use of a lake, benches, trees and grass.

Lighting

Due to the location picked for filming, we've decided that all lighting is going to natural lighting. Therefore, we are looking to record this music video on a sunny but cold day, the reason being is that we felt the cold can be represented by the character's costume and the sun can represent the character's mood along with the blue skies.

Character(s)

We have decided to use three characters throughout the filming of our music video, the main character will be filmed throughout most of the music video and will be portrayed as the artist. The main character is yet to be decided and will be uploaded in the 'Cast' section of my blog. The other two characters include myself and my group member Homayon. In certain intervals of the music video, there will be cameos of me and Homayon, the point of this is to create a mix of the random lyrics with random visuals in the song - therefore within the music video, we will be part of the artist's imagination.

Synopsis/Plot

This music video will be based on the artist's feelings for someone very close to him. The scenery used will represent certain parts of the lyrics but will mainly represent the artist's feelings, as a result we've picked to film our music video in a park therefore representing peace. The artist throughout the music video raps about his feeling for someone he likes/loves, he describes her affect on him and others around him.
