Script

Here i am presenting my pitch to my class to show them my ideas and what i am planning to do within my music video, they gave me feedback and asked my how i am going to do certain things that they were not sure about.

In this music video I am going to start my music video with something like this will set the scene and gradually make there way into the party. With this shot of Katy perry standing on the table with the party behind her, I want to re-create this within my garden with fairy lights going around my fence and all my friends in a group behind my main character with sparklers dancing around having fun for my main chorus.

Music Video Pitch

Mood Board

 In my mood board above i have chosen these particular pictures because these are props/camera shots that i am going to include in my music video. I have the red cups in the top right hand corner because these are ironic to a American party, which the theme to my music video is an American themed, i have also added images of how i want my main actor to look and what clothes that i wish for her to wear. The setting of my music video has been included because i want my audience to know what i want my music video to look like in the end.
