This template PowerPoint presentation
includes all the relevant elements you
need to cover in your Music Video
Assignment
It is suggested you save this PP in a
different name and share it with your
group so you always have a copy –
some sections require you to delete
the information on the slide and
replace with your own work
Add more pages to each section
where necessary [you should be doing
this!]
Add visuals as you see necessary
This document will be added to as you
progress through the pre-production
phase.
Delete this slide when complete

TASK 1
Idea
Generation and
Research

RESEARCH & IDEA
GENERATION
Select a song/track that you like [or don’t like!]
Generate three ideas for music videos
employing styles, techniques and conventions
that we have looked at in previous sessions.
Explore how you could interpret the song
differently using different methods
You can add any extra info you think is
relevant, images, mind maps, etc
For quick mind maps you could use bubbl.us
to generate these

RESEARCH
Watch a selection of videos to get your ideas started,
make note of a minimum of 5 – add extra slides,
screenshot the video and in bullet point note down info
in terms of camera, editing, art design, performance, etc
and how this might link to your production
Hint!
You’ve already done this in
your case study, so you can
summarise that here where
relevant

LYLA - OASIS
• Black and white filter at the start of the
video to give us the impression that the
woman is feeling upset and slightly
angry
• Close up camera shots to give us a
better understanding of her emotions
• Both camera angles capture the
emotions of the woman and give two
different contrasting scenarios
• Quite a lot of the camera shot sizes are
either close ups or wide angles as they
give the viewer a clearer understanding
as to what is going on
• The band are actually in the background
of the video playing at a party that the
woman has been pulled into
• No funky costumes just what Liam and
Noel would usually wear as well as
bonehead, quigsy and Alan white.
• This is relevant to my video as a
massive part of my life is music

THE JAM - IN THE CITY
• The music video to in the city is
very simple but tells us lots
about the jam
• Plenty of close up shots of Paul,
Bruce and Rick to show there
expressions during the video
• Again no fancy costumes as Paul
Weller wasn’t really into things
like that, but was massively
influenced in style by bands like
the Beatles and the small faces
• Mostly just standard edit cuts
from a wide view of the band to
close ups on each member.
• This links to my video as I'm
planning on keeping it simple
and not to over the top

BAXTER DURY - MIAMI
• This music video for Baxter
dury’s tune Miami is very
interesting as there is only
one camera angle and
nothing else.
• We see in the video that
Baxter wears a casual all
white suit, this links to all
the other bands as they wear
suits or items of clothes
related to it
• He then starts to dance very
slowly with the woman he
was clinging onto at the start
which could indicate he feels
very passionate towards her
• The lights that are shining
onto the couple give off a
sort of psychedelic feeling
and potentially what it would

POTENTIAL SONGS/BANDS
Liam Gallagher: once, greedy soul, Chinatown, the river
The jam: In the city, English rose, the Eton rifles
The libertines: Heart of the matter, can't stand me now
Oasis: Stand by me, digsy’s dinner, cigarettes and
alcohol, supersonic
The who: who are you, pinball wizard, see me feel me
The Beatles: a day in the life, strawberry fields forever, I
am the walrus, twist and shout

POTENTIAL TECHNIQUES
•Miming/ singing to the music
•Cutting to the beat
•Certain camera movements
•Camera angles
•Effects
•Lyric interpretation
•

FINAL IDEA –
ARTIST/TITLE/INFO
Name of track / name of artist
Brief biographical background
Links to other artists
Genre info
Liam Gallagher – The river
Liam Gallagher is an English rock n roll star who rose to fame
as the lead singer and front man of oasis from 1991 to 2009.
Very shortly after the band split Liam formed a new group
called beady eye from 2009 until 2014, before starting his solo
career in 2017.
Liam was joined alongside his older brother Noel in oasis for
nearly 20 years but after the bands split the brothers no longer
speak to each other and have both gone off and started a solo
career, noel started the high flying birds in 2010 whereas Liam
only started his solo career in 2017.

FINAL IDEA – TRACK
SUMMARY
Summary/analysis of track [consider meaning, content,
duration, pace and style of the song]
Liam Gallagher – The river
Duration – 3:30
Liam has never actually said what the song is about and
whether there is a meaning behind the lyrics, but the
song is described as a rebel anthem for the new
generation.

FINAL IDEA – YOUR IDEA
Your creative concept/video synopsis [describe your
interpretation, use of imagery or narrative, genre
conventions, etc]

TASK 2
Pre-production
Assessment

GUIDANC
E:
PRE-
PRODUCT
ION
ASSESSM
ENT
You need to assess the viability of your production and
investigate what is required to enable you to make your
music video
Much of this task is hypothetical, which means you will
need to investigate standard costings for such a
production and apply these to your planned production
considering which equipment you would need and
resources, etc
Resources to support this are in the Pre-production
assessment folder on Blackboard
Delete the questions on each slide and insert your
responses

TITLE OF
PRODUCTION/PRODUC
TION OUTLINE
Summary of intended production
Detail here what you are going to
make and the intended outcome
Detailed breakdown of the music
track chosen and your interpretation
of it [remember the questions in the
workbook, e.g.
pace/mood/tone/structure]
Specific outline your intended
technical/equipment requirements
Include any details that you think
[you could use material from your
pitch]

LOCATIONS
You need to identify locations and plan a recce.
What are the limitations and risks e.g., distance, access,
cost, weather? How will you manage this?
Limitations and risks – The limitations are that I won't be able
to travel to certain areas as they could be to far away or the
area is closed off from the public. Some risks could be that
filming in an abandoned building could be illegal or the
building itself isn’t safe to enter.
Access – mix of both locations, for example I'm going to film
certain parts of the video in public areas with people around
and then other shots will be filmed in a more remote area with
less people around.
Weather – The weather is unpredictable, so I don’t have much
control over it, but I must check the weather forecast on the
days I plan to film to check what the weather will be like.
Cost – The only cost for the locations would be if I would have
to pay an entrance fee to enter the grounds of a certain area
that may require payment.

EQUIPMENT
What do you need? E.g. equipment, resources? Mostly
from college, but who do you need to speak to get this
kit? What is available? When?
Look at equipment hire places, etc
The equipment I would ideally like to have for the music video is; a
camera that is fit for recording videos at a high quality and a tripod so
that I can record still shots and other types of camera shots/angles.
To get access to this equipment I will have to book out which items I
need for my music video on the team's website, where I will have to fill
out a form saying which items I need and what I will be using them for.
The booking works on a first come first serve basis so the equipment
that is available will depend on how many people have booked to use
the same equipment.
A website called HIRE A CAMERA allows you to rent cameras for as little
as £38 a day, the prices do vary depending on the quality of the
camera so for example if a camera costs £250 just to rent for one day,
then it indicates that the camera quality is extremely good compared to
the camera that costs £38 a day.

FACILITIES
Where will you edit your video? Do you need any other
specialist facilities…?
For my music video I will edit my piece at college on the
computers and the editing software that I will be using is
called adobe premiere pro.
No, I will not need any other specialist facilities

PERSONNEL
CREW: What is you team? Who is in it? What are each team members
strengths/weaknesses? When are they available?
CAST: Do you need any external performers? When are they available?
Cost implications? Will you have to feed them? Transport them?
Other personnel? Is anyone else helping you?
For my music video I will be working with just one other person
and that is Harry Nelson. He has had previous experience
with music videos in the past as he starred in a music video as
the main lead. Him being in a music video is a large strength as
he is comfortable with being filmed and understands what to
do at the right moments A weakness, I believe harry has is that
sometimes he can get distracted very easily by little things
which could be an issue when filming as he will need to
concentrate. He will be available from Friday to Monday every
week and there will be no cost apart from when we have some
food at lunch and the odd payment for petrol.

PROPS/COSTUME/ETC
•Parkas
•Jeans
•Desert boots/boots

PRE-PRODUCTION:
VISUAL PLANNING
This section is concerned with the visual planning of your
music video
You should use this section to develop the sequencing or your
video, establish the relationship between the visuals and the
track itself and create a structure for you to follow when
filming
It is important that you ‘pre-visualise’ the video before you
make it; it will make filming and production a more
streamlined process
The following tasks are part of your visual planning
 Pre-visualisation and concept boards
 Storyboarding
 Shot list

MV Production Assignment Form 2021.pptx

The music video will not consist of any other shots aside
from the psychedelic images you will see during the
video.

PRE-
VISUALISATION/CONC
EPT BOARDS
Tool for exploring the direction and visuals
Provides inspiration and information for the “look & feel”
Presents key moments in your video
A means to sketch/plan ideas
Information on colour/lighting
Defining the “mise-en-scene”
Include as much here as you like, but keep it relevant to the
production, the following slides have been left blank for you to
approach in your own way, add more as you need to
Extension suggestion: edit a short sequence of clips that have
inspired or influenced your video [similar to this:
http://io9.com/5941145/this-directors-video-pitch-for-hunger-
games-might-be-better-than-the-real-movie]

RIP-O-MATIC
You should also construct a 15-20second Rip-o-matic
test reel using existing footage to convey the type of
video you want to make

STRUCTU
RAL
BREAKDO
WN
Breakdown your track into it basic sections [e.g.
intro, verse, chorus, verse, etc] and apply broad
visual ideas to each section
You can use this as the master template for your
production, then add more shots to each section
when you develop your full visual plan
You should create a slide showing all the sections
of the song, then add a slide for each section with
timings, lyrics, what happens and details on
specific shots
You could storyboard and shot list each section
as you go, to break up the process.

STORYBOAR
DING
Your storyboard should bring your idea to
life
Provide an idea of the sequencing of you
video
Provides a basis for production
Suggested online storyboard creators are:
 https://www.storyboardthat.com
 http://www.pixton.com [very
complicated]
 http://www.storyjumper.com [allows you
to insert your own images]
Alternatively, hand draw or photograph
your storyboard and scan or copy to insert
it onto your slides
There are lots of tips collected together on
Blackboard!

SHOT
LIST
Your shot list should contain the
sequential breakdown of what you
need to shoot for your video
It should work in partnership with
your storyboard
It will be your working document
when you film
It should contain the shot number,
scene number, shot description,
framing and action you will see
It should also have information on
performers in the scene and other
props, etc
Shot list template is on Blackboard
in the pre-production folder.

LOCATION
INFORMAT
ION
Information and images of your
location[s] for filming
You should have address details,
clearance/premissions for filming,
recce photos and floorplans
[including camera, equipment and
cast/crew layouts]
Where possible, have a plan B
fallback location option
Assess each location for any issues
and suggest solutions

LOCATIONS
Bielsa the redeemer –
Wortley, Leeds
‘UNITED WE STAND’
– Kirkgate, Leeds
Kalvin Phillips – The
Calls, Leeds
Leeds &
Liverpool
canal walk
Any pub in
or around
Leeds

RISK
ASSESSM
ENT
Risk Assess each separate filming
location using the table in the
camera H&S PP on Bb as a staring
point
Completing a generic filming
assessment would be a start, then
you can add specialist/site specific
risks as you progress your
production
Remember, a Risk Assessment is an
ongoing document, you should
evaluate if anything changes in
production and when you put
control measures in place
You should add the table to each
call sheet for each location

RISK ASSESSMENT
Risk Control Measure

PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
Your schedule should budget a total of 10 hours for
production, that is for the filming and editing of your
project.
You should plan when you’re filming and how you intend
to use the in class days on your timetable/class schedule

CLEARANCE AND
PERMISSIONS
Any place you film and anyone you use in the
filming of your video must have a completed form
Blank forms are available for you to complete and
insert here, you can also create your own
