Production Log - 5th July 2013

In today's lesson I have began doing my script as I have finally decided the song I want to be using in my music video. The song I have began doing a script to is 'Kodaline - All I want' as I believe I would be able to manipulate different things and build up on the music video as the song goes on. Furthermore I have also decided on the people I want to be using for my music video, and as the song is about two people I have decided to use two people which I think are very good actors and would make my music video look as realistic as possible. Additionally, having taken into account the amount of research that needs to be done on the project I have decided to complete two research posts per week, in order to keep on track with everything and keep everything up to date which saves me from being in panic later on. 

Due to the decision making I had to make at the start it prevented me from completing a few more planning posts as I was not sure what I wanted to do until a few days ago. Having now made my decision I believe I will be able to complete all the tasks to date and complete them to the best of my ability. The script has also made me aware of all the little things I need to take into account, and helps me figure out what I want for each scene which I believe will be helpful when I start filming my music video.

This week I also made my decision on which characters I want to use in my music video. I will be using a girl and a boy, Katie and Nick as they are good actors and will make my music video look realistic. Furthermore they know the song very well so therefore the synched lip sing will also look very realistic due to my video being a narrative and not a performance they will need to make sure that is done very well.
In the upcoming week I will carry on completing my script and begin doing the next tasks such as the storyboard.
