Cororado Sunshine Ideas/ PLAN production of the shoot.

The wonders of moving image....


I WANT TO FILM ON A BEACH.
I THINK A BEACH WOULD BE THE PERFECT LOCATION FOR
MY CHOSEN SONG

COLORADO SUNSHINE.





This can be possible, as i am going to Newquay for a week and
then South Of France for Two weeks and a half.
Though i am highly unlikely i will be able to film in Newquay beach what with the height of the season, and i don't wish to bring anything technical or expensive to Newquay when i am on Holiday with friends, yes , not a great idea.
So i have decided i am to film On the Coast of France.

I am to include in my music video:

  • Shots of evening and surfers like images above, i think this is very symbolic of the songs title.
  • running footsteps in the sand
  • candid natural panoramic shots of the scene
  • sun setting
  • surfers catching waves
  • calm people walking past on the beach
  • shots of people walking into the sun
  • running past the sea
  • people happliy swimming
  • i will cast georgia as the main character, following her and 'the particular moment' particular focusing a close up shot of her running into the sea and looking back at the camera?
  • capturing the waves and the tide, movement of the waves to the music, alongside the tempo i think this will create allot of emotion.




PRODUCTION OF THE SHOOT.
stop motion process?


I do not own my own video- camera and so the only chance of taking video footage on my travels is too borrow from someone or get one on loan . This is a problem as
I have been told we are not able to use these school cameras over the summer Holiday's, so i am to think of something, where am i to get hold of a video-camera ?
i suppose i could hire or something? but this tricky as i will not be familar with the software or the product and so if any troubles occur whilst out on my travels where am i to turn to if something goes wrong?

However i do own an SLR Digital camera....?


I have before created a video from just pictures, taking a certain amount of pictures continuously at the same time to create a video flick, like a flicker book, when you sketch a million pictures of a stick man and flick the pages to turn the drawing into life. This type of production is
called
"the stop motion process"

you take so many pictures in how many seconds you wish
and continually press the shutter, you are then left with a hundred or so pictures that when put together create a video. However you have to constantly be thinking about the number of seconds, shutter delay, aperture, shutter speed, F-Stop etc .. this could be tricky but i think the overall effect would be worth while.

Like other videos i have created via this method i am to take a serious of photographs quickly and then put them together.

Here is a couple videos i have made via the stop motion process..

This was created last year, when i was a bit bored, i started take photos of random things, just as an experiment, and then inserted crops and anything that i could find around me , it wasn't planned i just made it up as i went along.
I began to notice how some photos almost synced together and made a video, i then tried this out by taking photographs of a duck on which i added music and various other things.

This is the kind of method i am going to use for my music video.


The one above is of low quality this is because i shrinked the video for youtube so that it can be viewed on the internet.,

here i experimented with people trying to capture something creativly insentive to the music, editing the music to the right crop of the pictures if you are to get it correct thus making it flow accordenly.
