Planning - Storyboarding

A storyboard present shot by shot picture of how an images It is made up of illustrations or images by representing each shot that will be included in the moving image which is supported by important notes for each shot including the camera shot, location, props, lighting, actors, sound, dialogue, editing and narrative description. It is important to have a story board because when creating a music video it is helpful to have an understanding of what we want the next scenes to look like, also allow us to achieve what we want to achieve. After deciding on our final idea and identifying how the narratives was going to progress throughout the music video, we created a story board of each frame, identifying the micro elements; camera shot, location, props, lighting, actors, sound, dialogue and editing that we will include in each frame, supported by a brief narrative description, of what will occur in that particular frame. Storyboarding our idea has been beneficial as we have been able to look closely at the narrative, taking each frame into consideration, rather than identifying a brief overview, which  does not give us any insight into the details we need to draw upon when creating our music video. Therefore, we storyboarded the entire music video and thought about all the details, giving us a clearer idea of how our music video is going to develop. We it comes to filming the music video, it will also be easier for us, as we will use the storyboard as guidance.
