Journal - Music Video Storyboard

We have begun the first draft of storyboards for our music video. We only had a few, rough ideas for different parts of the song so it was helpful to sit down and discuss the visuals in detail. We have so far storyboarded the visuals for the first 30 seconds of our song.

We discussed opening our music video by showing our artist's name (Isla) and the song title (Youth Knows No Pain) over a shot of London. This gives us a chance to incorporate our logo and reflect our artist's background immediately; we can also line up the timing of the fade in and fade out of the text to the swiping like sounds in the song, linking with Goodwin's analysis.

We also want to include a establishing shot of London, for iconography, but plan to speed the footage up to go with the music.

We have tried to include close-ups of our artist to reflect Goodwin's analysis but also want to include shots of Isla and her friends to link in with the song title and upbeat vibe.

Polaroid photos are going to be  reoccurring feature in our music video because they are quite artsy; the video is going to be constructed around Isla taking photos on a day out with her friends. We will cut between shots of Isla singing with these polaroids around her to showing the actual day where these polaroids were taken.
