Equipment and Props

I am going to use this sony camera during the whole day to show the making of my music video. The video will feature the way I do all the shots, the props I use, and the location etc. Once having all the footage of the day I will speed it up and make it into a short video to post on to my blog.

Another reason why this camera will be a good idea is because it can act as a back up incase the other one goes wrong. I have a 60 mintue tape for this camera.

This is the camera that I will be shooting my actual music video with. This also includes a 60 minute tape which may not be enough, so I have a spare just incase.

This is a car battery taken from a van so that I can have power on the beach. The idea of this is so that I can use artificial lighting - specifically for the headlight shot in my music video. I can also use the lighting then to focus of the people in the music video incase the natural lighting is too dark.

I am using glass and plastic bottles to create an effect of the artists walking on glass. This will also be used to signify the smashing of glass on the beach.

The sweets on the right match my house colours of red. They are going to represent the pills that the artist overdoses on and I am going to strap them to his hand with gaffatape.

I found this red ribbon like prop at a scrap store in Welwyn and thought that it would look nice around Hannah's black dress so that when she is dancing it will blow in the wind. It adds to the house colour of red and I am hoping that it will look very effective.

The picture below is actually the same piece of ribbon but will be used in a different way. I am going to wrap it around the artist's head to represent a blind fold. This shows that he is not in control of himself and if almost trapped.

This red frame like prop is also from the scrap store, and also carried on the theme of red. I had an idea of having a mid shot so that the red frame will be around the shot with Hannah in one square and Jonny in the other to represent how close they are but how they are never in the same environment.
