PREPARATION FOR THE MUSIC VIDEO
After days of careful considerations and meetings, I have decided to take, Nathan Mukoro also known as Mukz, music video much further. I had other offers however, they only led to setbacks which I have to time for. Time was precious so I had to take what was resource for the time being. However I hope in time I’ll get back to my previous offers, not only to make up my hours but for further experience and encouragement to reflect my goals of becoming a director.
The artist was unavailable to contact at this time but I’ve been talking to his producer who give me the authorization to create a music video for the song given. I had a second meeting with before he left for London with storyboards to back up my plans of development and he was happy with the results. With confirmation on the go, he agreed to go to London to talk to the artist about the pre-production plans and find an available time for the artist to visit Bournemouth for the filming process.
In the meantime, I made further preparations before confirming the days of filming. According to the storyboards demonstrated from the last entry I will be using green screening for compositing and also using close locations to establish the perceptive of the relationship between the artist and his love interest. So I decided to firstly book a day and a room where I can used the opportunity to work with the green screen which will take place mid April. For location uses, I used a specific day to find useful places for the relationship scene. Here are some examples:
Bournemouth town was my first choice so I started looking art locations such as the beach and the parks as I thought helped establish the feel of their relationship. However I must remember that this is just an idea and at the same time I need to think of my film crew and actors/actresses on their availability, so to make things easier I decided to shoot the relationship since on the university campus as a closer location:
