The idea for my coursework is that I want to do a music video in two parts, using Elly Bishop's new EP. Here are the songs I can find on youtube, as she has not recorded them professionally yet. Here are some of the videos on her channel.. Here are the two songs I'm using for my videos.. I wanted to use Ellys music because I think it looks fake and unbelievable when someone lip syncs with a song that is very obviously not their song. Using her own music makes everything seamless and more professional. She is also a close friend of mine which means I can ask her to be part of the video, even the main character, she can also bring in artistic views as she wrote the songs, she knows what the videos should be portraying.  Elly doesn't have any music videos as she hasn't even released her EP yet so I have nothing to work off with themes or consistency. this allows me to be as artistic and free as I want.

No changes have been made to the setting since the planning post so I am/we are working from that.

my costumes changed slightly, I decided to not have as many arguments therefore half the outfits were not needed but apart from that nothing changed. Elsie Charlie Images of the costumes Outfit 1 Outfit 2  outfit 3 Outfit 5 The reason I chose these outfits were because I don't have the budget to buy all new costumes, also the actors I used already had the ideal clothes for their characters, since this music video is going to be aimed at promoting Elly and her music as advertisement, it is a key influence of this music video to ensure that she wears clothes that she feels represents her, to form her own iconic look in clothes she feels comfortable in. Edwards character Charlie was always envisaged in my head wearing darker clothes, dark expensive clothes that he has bought using the money from his drug selling company. Elly would wear bright colours In the happy scenes, this aids colour psychology, where the bright h...

Edward Pratt Age : 17 Nationality:  British Height: 6  foot 1 Eye Colour: green Hair Colour:  Browny blonde Acting Experience: Yes I always knew I was going to use Elly Bishop as the girl in my video, I have used her for several different pieces in the past shown here, these videos show how comfortable she is on camera and has been for a range of outcomes, therefore I used her as my Elsie, considering music videos are aimed at promoting the artist I figured the most effective way to promote the artist was to have the artist in the video..

On the day I change things slightly and added flash forwards of clips I had already filmed and planned, I wanted to show the end at the beginning therefore I hadn't planned this before video two

After all planning, my idea hasn't changed dramatically, only small parts of my plan have changed. Here is the final plan... The first video follows a young couple, as they arrive at a house and we soon realise they are at a house party, we then follow them into the party, throughout the first song, we see Charlie being hands on, rude and aggressive towards everyone.  We follow the couple through the party and discover Elsie feels very uncomfortable in her relationship, trapped. Charlie shows her off like a trophy to his friends, grabbing her and kissing her, getting drunk with his friends. Elsie sits uncomfortable and alone in the corner, avoiding drunken party goers as she searches for a missing Charlie. As she looks out the window she sees Charlie passing over a small bag to a friend.  Police car lights pull into the drive way, Charlie runs through the house grabbing Elsie, pulling her into a frantic chase. The whole way through this video it wi...
