Storyboard and Shot List

This is the first page of our storyboard, we hope to follow the storyboard as best as we can when filming. However I may decide to slightly change some of the shots if there is opportunity for improvement.














Frame 1 is an establishing shot from inside the garage. It will feature the criminal and the shop assistant, and will be a high angle shot, and it will put into black/white using editing software. This will make the shot look like CCTV footage. It will mainly show the criminal entering the garage.

Frame 2 is an over the shoulder shot of the criminal looking at the counter deciding what to buy.

Frame 3 is a close-up of the criminal grabbing the newspaper.

Frame 4 is another close-up of the criminal reaching for his money, but realising he has none. It will be a high angle shot focusing on the criminals trouser pocket.

Frame 5 is another shot from the point of view of the CCTV camera of the criminal running out of the shop, it will use the same effects as the other CCTV style shot.

Frame 6 is a tracking shot of the criminal fleeing from the garage, we will use a tripod to maintain a smooth pan of the camera. To capture the criminals movements.

Frame 7 is a two shot of the criminal and shop assistant. It shows the shop assistant shouting and pointing at the criminal, the shot will be a still shot and will last until the criminal is out of the shot.

Frame 8 will then be another two shot of the criminal and then the protagonist chasing him. The shot will be still with the two actors running towards the camera

Location Stills

Here are some pictures I have taken of  locations that we wish to film in.

This is going to be the first location we use in the video. It is where the shoplifting and where the chase will begin.

This is going to be another location that chase will feature in. It is the point that the criminal will escape on the rooftop.

This area will be used to film some of the performance shots. The shots will be on the stairs leading up to the bridge and also on the top of the bridge. The shot will feature Ash and George.

This is another one of or performance shot locations, the shots will be on top of the bridge and also under the bridge on a small floating platform. The shot will feature Ash in the last verse of the music video.

This will be another one of the locations that we film our performance shots at. The shot will be of Ash stood/sat against the brick wall with the graffiti visible behind him.

We chose to use these locations because we feel that they would be suitable for our music video. They are relevant to the narrative and  meet the conventions of our music video genre as they are all urban settings and are quite run down areas.
