Prop List and Outfits
Props
- Bed
- Photo-frame
- Phone
- Picnic blanket
Outfit for First Girl
In the present day scenes my character will be wearing black leggings and a black hoodie. this is to connote the sadness my character is feeling during this time period. In the flashback scenes she will be wearing blue jeans and a white t shirt to show shes happier and to show a bigger contrast between the flashbacks and the present. these outfits will change during each flashback but stick to that basic theme.
Outfit for Second Girl
In the flashbacks will be wearing different dresses to make her different from the first girl. this is to sway away from stereotypes of the LGBTQ+ community. in the present day, because she will only be seen in one scene I will have her wearing a different style dress with a hoodie over the top of it, again to show her sadness.
Location number 5
Location Number 3
This is one of the shots I will use during the running scene. It's an every day street which is nice and straight making it easier to run along. This is one of the reasons I chose this particular street. Another reason I chose this one is because it close by to the house I'm using therefore I can run to the location like in the video.

Who is Who
Tom Powell- Playing the role of my music artist |
Myia Humber- Playing the second girl in the music video. I have chosen her because she is young, physically attractive and good at acting which means she'll be a good asset to the script. |
Imogen Angus- Playing the first girl in the music video. i have chosen myself because i know what i want from the music video and think i'll be able to do the role well. |
Location Number 1
This is the one of the flashback locations. I've chosen an outdoor location for this as it connotes freedom and will appeal to the audience explorer. It being outside makes good lighting for what the scene is and the large open space followed by the smaller enclosed space of the river means that it keeps it varied whilst still being the same place. | |

Video Script
Video
1. Intro of
song plays and we begin to see to see a girl sitting on her bed with her head
in her hands. This will be an Establishing
shot and will slowly zoom in to her face.
2. The girl will slowly start to lie down and we will
see this from a high angle shot looking down onto the bed. It will lift up as
the song picks up and we will fade to a lighter filtered scene.
3. We see two girls in the same bed, same angle and
shot as last but with a lighter filter. This is the first of the flashbacks. The girls will be smiling and holding
each other’s hands. The camera angle will cut to a side angle close up shot focusing on the girls faces.
4.
The two girls take a photo,
cuts to said photo in a frame, close
up shot. flashback ends and we cut back
to the single girl on the bed, only now she is holding the same photo frame,
but dirtier and faded. Front facing,
tracking round to over the shoulder shot.

AV Content
I will be doing a Q&A video with my artist as a way of introducing my audience to my artist. it will be a short video of about two minutes long consisting of questions my artists 'fans' have asked.
Questions:
- Why was it important for you to have an LGBTQ+ couple represented in your video?
- How long did it take you to write 'Tough'?
- You were quite heavily involved with the directing of your music video, what was your favourite scene to film?
- Dogs or cats?
