Production diary (week 5 and 6)
Week 5-
This week we started to look a little more at what song we would choose, we had already sent a couple emails trying to get permission but we got no responses. The group started to move more towards the indie rock genre and looking at a few different songs which took a couple days, we eventually decided on a song by James Bay called 'When we were on fire'. All the group were happy with the decision as we all enjoy indie rock music. We emailed James Bay's manager Paul to see if we could get permission and got a positive reply.
Week 6-
Now we had decided the song we started to look a little more into it, starting with analysing the lyrics of the song. This gave us an understanding of the narrative of the lyrics, also giving us a chance to plan the sorts of shots we would use. Our understanding of the video was that James
Bay was singing about a past girlfriend and their relationship, but always in the past tense.
The song did not have much of a narrative, meaning we were gonna have to use our imagination a lot more when creating the music video.
We slowly began to piece together a storyboard, as well as making a mind map thinking of different shots we could use in the video. We also got some help from peers to try and gain a diverse range of shots and ideas.
