Music Video Plan

    For our location. We conventionality ran into an opportunity that allowed us to shoot at a local middle school. We plan to use the school's stage while shooting some scenes outside. As far as a back up location, not much thought has been put in to it, seeing that our main setting has already been secured with no sign of complications. If we had to, a reasonable back up would be the beach, especially since it fits with our goal of creating a clique love story or sorts. I personally like the idea of shooting on the stage because, it the closest we have to an actual speakeasy. While it may not be as classy as one, I hope the scene can be set within reasonable parameters. That with the outside shots, a nice composed film should be easy.
    For props, I don't see us using any. At the very least, I don't see us bringing any props to the set. If we manage to get our hands on some musical instruments at the school, we could defiantly use them, otherwise we won't have any props in our final film, other than the radio used to open our film. For costumes, we'll have the two subjects wear dresses, similar to the dresses worn to time of the Song, the 1950s. The possibility of makeup is there, but we might cut it out. It's a tad extra, in my option.
    In terms of our schedule, we plan of filming November the eighteenth, and editing until December the tenth. We thought that the sooner we film, the longer we'd have to edit and everything, especially since we had so many difficulties editing for the commercial. Technical issues are to be expected and we want to take this music a step above our commercial. In order to do that we wanted to jump start our project and film as soon as possible and get editing just as fast. Over the course of time we plan on figuring out ways to turn our footage into black and white and also figure out some transition effects we could use to better the quality of our film.
     With all this said, since we are filming on our own time, we did have to consider health and safety. We, as a group, do not have any health obstacles to over come. Our location is safe, being that it is a school, and there will be numerous facilitators present on the grounds while we film.  We do not plan to have anything on set that would cause us harm, chiefly because we do no plan on using props at all. If we end up filming on the beach, we all know how swim so we wouldn't be subject to drowning. Nevertheless, we would make sure to film near a life-guard tower, even though we don't plan on implementing the water into our film.
