Storyboard

http://franks.glogster.com/Glog-1471/

This is my storyboard which I have put together on Glogster, it was originally in pictures and writing. It shows the main images which I want to include and the order which they wil go in. It shows when I want them to come up and the order.

Timeline

This is my first initial idea as to how I wanted my video to be set up and put together. It begins with a CU shot of her face and you can see her crying this leads into her writing up lyrics to the song but we don't see all of them. But because she is crying I want to include a shot of a tear spilling onto the page showing her saddness and the link back to the title of the song. We are the introduced to the artist by a MS/LS of her singing in the studio. At certain moments in the song to show their relationship and to show the narrative there will be clips of the couple and happier times whe they were together. This then leads onto the cheating section; originally I wanted their to be a fight and arguement, but this wouldn't have worked well so I decided to try something more symbolic by having clothes on the stairs which indicate the cheating. I've used intertexuality here as this has been done in different movies and TV shows. This leads into a picture breakig and dropping of the two of them together. This shows their relationship and how they were together but it also shows her disappointment, shock and upset. Again I have used intertexuality as it is iconic and displays the emotions well. It then goes back to the studio to show the emotion of the song and the words that shes saying. I want to show the narrative and inter cross it with performance to show emotion, but also so I would represent both Indie music and R&B music.

Interlinking Ideas

Linkin Park - Numb



Because I have choosen a cover version of Linkin Park Numb it's important to keep the audience of this song avaliable to us as well. To be able to make this sog avaliable to both an indie and R&B audience the video will have to apppeal to both audiences. To do this, i looked at this video and decided to take to studio effect which they have. However, ours will be different because it will be set in a studio which is linked to R&B artists. The crossing between the storyline and the performance is also similar to how I want my video to be presented; however, I will link it back to R&B by having a storyline to do with relatioships.
Its important to not loose any of the audience so linking between the video and the idea of the video is how I plan to keep the audience as wide as possible.

Marketing

She would be part of the independent rock label ‘The Nothing Room’ because it produces indie/rock artist and it have helped to produced hudreds of artist similar to mine. I think it would be ideal because they arfe an independent label.

MTV

This is one of the biggest Music channels which was established in New York in 1981. The main aim was to watch music videos. MTV went through many different stages which affected the development of music videos and breaking stereotypical barriers.

It began with playing purely rock and white artist like Blink 182, Bon Jovi and Duran Duran. This was because the audience enjoyed these artists. When the new artist began to emerge like Rick James began to be aired to the black audience along with Michael Jackson.

This lead to the development into black artist being established and the introduction to R&B and hip hop music genre. This became a popular genre and the essence of rock was loss. But they then re promoted Rock but the audience and viewing rating weren’t as high as before but they continued to air it during the off peak times.

MTV then developed into creating TV shows as music video ratings declined. As MTV is known world wide it then gained broadcasting rights to show live concerts and holding award shows. MTV has developed at an alarming rate in thirty years ad it is a very good channel to broad cast an up and coming new star allowing the audience to view her.

But that would not be the only audience which she will be played to. Because MTV has a very large audience, I will target more specific channels like Vimeo which plays to my target audience as it plays many Indie music videos.

Performing at festivals like Reading, Leeds and Nottingham willl help the name to become more welll known and will draw in large audiences because of the amount of people that go to watch. And within Nottingham perform at Rock city which is a rock and Indie club which would be perfect to help her become well established as an Indie Artist.

Advertising in magazines such as NME which is directly aimed at my target audience which willl help to create hype and attention. An interview with images would be appropriate but the images will have to be linked to her star image.

Using the radio and performing on stations like X fm and Radio One which would be more open to playing new tracks by new up coming artist. They would appeal to the target audience and would recieve critism and the album and single would be promoted on a large audience scale.
