Planning Blog

 Today my group and I got together to begin outlining our plan for our music video. We started planning by confirming our different set locations. The locations we chose were: the Sawgrass Mall outlets, Lauren's living room, Zumiez, Hot Topic, the food court, In the Game (a large arcade), and Footlocker. We chose Sawgrass Mall outlets because its an open area outside and it fits the theme of our film, which is teen girls hanging out and having fun. The next location will be at Lauren's house inside of her living room. We're going to use her living room to get an establishing shot of every group member. We chose Zumiez and Hot Topic because those stores have clothes that the creator of "Catch me Outside" wears. The inside of the store has a very cool and dark vibe which goes great with our song. The food court and Footlocker will be to record us walking around the mall shopping etc.

   When we film Lauren or Jarvia driving the car to the mall that would fall into the health and safety category. We will have our seat belts on and there will be adult supervision. None of our group members have a license so it is mandatory that an adult is in the car with us. Another thing that falls into the safety category is asking mall security for their permission to record. I'm pretty sure they will give their consent as long as we aren't bothering other civilians at the mall. I also plan on bringing a first aid kit just in case one of us trips or falls while dancing in the video.

We have multiple props in our music video. The first pr

op that we have is a speaker. The speaker is what's going to be used in the intro of our music video. We'll set it on low and once the first verse starts we're going to blast the speaker. The second prop that will be used is a car. We want to use a chucky doll as a prop but they are expensive. We'll have some type of doll in the video which will count as a prop.
   We don't have specific costumes. We plan on dressing out in a regular outfit that someone would wear to the mall; a nice top, some jeans and shoes. We came up with a schedule on when to film. We chose to film on 11-26-19 (Tuesday). We also plan on filming during our Thanksgiving break. Hopefully we'll be able to record good takes next Tuesday so that we can start editing our films at home over the break. That's all we did today, I'll be back tomorrow with our storyboard.
