Building the storyboard 2

We have now started creating our storyboard for the “Now is everyone” music video. The song is called “what we see”. We decided to use this group and song at the eng of the last lesson. As a group we sat down a listen to the song over and over just writing down things that came into our minds when listing to it. Here are my ideas:
• Lots of people with there heads down raising there heads slowly and opening there closed eyes
• Girl running across in front of the band, care free there heads raise as she passes
• Black and white with only certain objects in colour as the song goes on more objects in colour till its all in colour.
• Lying down on your back looking up
• Moving when lying on back as if standing up
• Very broken movements in the background but the band moving normally then swap over
• In the drumming break colours and words flying from drum kit and guitars.
• Close ups on guitar strings
• Shots of just the leads singers mouth when he is singing
• Shots of there eyes opening slowly with very bright eye colours in-contrast with there face which would be in black and white.
• Starts off with raindrops falling which turn into bright colours by the end of the song.
• Walking down the street which is in black and white, after the band passes the street turns to colour.
• Band standing in street performing at normal speed, the background everything is in fast forward.
• Following a guys day in stop motion ( getting up, brushing teeth, getting changed…) the band keeps appearing in the shot (on the TV screen, on the front of the newspaper, in the mirror)
• Lead singer singing directly into the camera, looking right at it (therefore looking like he is watching the person watching him) then offering his hand out as if to pull us into the screen.
• Tear rolling down someone’s face then in rewind the tear rolling back up into the eye and the camera tracks back to show they are now smiling.
• Some people running around posting up and handing out flyers, flyer says “open your eyes” or something to that nature on it. In the picture part of the poster is a moving image of the band playing. The posters are bright colours the rest is in black and white, when people look at the poster they come into colour also.
My initial idea of skiing no longer works with this piece as it would not be possible to actually film it in the Alps. So to do it , it would require a lot of blue screen which would be very time consuming and may end up not looking that good. We also thought it would not fit in with the star image of the band who are a local rock/indi group from Guildford.
