Storyboarding

Today, 11/21/19, we started to storyboard for our music video. After considering many locations and ideas for the video, we finally decided to film on the beach and in the car with all of us dancing, singing and being happy. We chose this idea because we feel as if we could elaborate more on our ideas if we film here. To start off our commercial, we will do a close up of the song on the radio in the car. The beginning of the song is just music with no lyrics, and this is when we will show the scenery in the car with the song playing. We will show all of the actors in the video, as we will be bringing in our friends too. Next, we will show the two people in the front of the car dancing in the car. We will also show the people in the back of the car dancing as well. Following this, we will show one of us singing the song in a close up. Throughout the whole video, we will keep cutting back into the same person singing the words of the song. We will then show the location of where we are filming, the beach. We will drive on the road next to the beach, and film through the window and this will be a pan shot. Once we show that we are at the beach, we will then show us jumping and dancing around to the song in the sand, while singing the lyrics. After this, we will cut back to the close up of one of us singing the lyrics to the song again. We repeat this one more time later in the video. Since the song is called sugar, we are planning on incorporating donuts from Dunkin’ donuts. We are relating this film to the title of the song, especially when it explicitly says the word sugar in the song. We will do a close up of the donuts in the car to show them. We will then show all of us dancing in the car while eating the donuts, showing the box too. We will also show us dancing through the sunroof of the car. For the last time, we will then cut back into the close up of one of us singing the song again. Once we have done this, we will go back to the beach and play volleyball. We will take a wide shot of two of us passing the volleyball back and forth over the net. To conclude the video, we are going to wait until sunset and take a pan of the beach, specifically the waves and the sky. The very last scene of the video will be all of us sitting on the towel at sunset, all singing together. Overall, we intended to create a happy and intriguing music video that will be appealing to the audience. The song is overall a very happy song and we will match the tone in the video. We are planning on filming on 11/27 and if that doesn’t work, we will film on 11/30.
