Treatment

We had a great idea on how exactly we want our video. With lots of pictures and black and white filming used we had come together as a group and had developed a great plan on how we wanted it.

On Monday starting to film we did have a great difficulty of where to film we knew exactly how what we wanted to do it. But in the end we had found a room in which there would be a scene of me (Arti) writing a letter to the boy that had left me (Dean). We had wanted to this scene because it connects well with the lyrics and in the video it shows how she feels about the relationship. So in this scene it expresses how she feels about it all. With just 10seconds into it we had decided to add images of some of the memories that the guy and girl had. We wanted this to connect with the letter.

We had used different locations where to shot and in which this shows that the couple had been going out for a long time. With the locations of the cinema, town, park and the restaurant our ideas had changed and we had progressed to do more than we could such as our original plan was to get the class involved with one scene which was going to be the henna night in which the guy confesses but we had changed it and had just me in the middle with 5 or 6 classmates and had made it look better.

It would look good on screen think because after editing it it with a lot of effects such as all the black and white images look like she is dreaming it because it is kind of blurred out as if the girl is dreaming. There are also some clips where you see her crying sitting on a bench. I think this song is not depressing at all as you can see the good times they have had and see that she can not cope with the betrayal.

The beat to our music goes well with the video. In addition, in the middle of the video you see the ending of the relationship in which we had added a quiet Indian beat to it as I am the girl who is Indian and we had decided to turn our music more like and Indian thing. As you can see from the opening of the video you see that the girl is writing her letter in an Indian dress from this you can see that the video will be based on a little bit of Indian background. Further into the video in the middle you see me again in an Indian dress and that is when the Indian beat comes into it. We decided to this because it we thought it would be different compared to others in the class.

When it came to shooting we had added a few clips of just town itself and had also added clips from me walking out some shops such as Anne Summers to emphasises the moment of my sadness. However, looking into the structure of this video we had also had taken a few more shots of me just in case we had didn’t have much footage.

Editing came easy for us as we had much footage we had many parallel amounts of editing as we had fixed many different clips together. We also had added quick log and capture to make our video a bit more interesting.

There were many different shot sizes we had done such as over shoulder shots e.g. when writing the letter at the beginning of the video you see a lot of close up shots and also some over shoulder shoots of me writing. There also is a shot of me walking into of the camera and out of the camera and also you see me walking with my back turned against the camera. In many scenes we had created some of the shots to be long and also some close up shots in the chorus you can see that we had done a close up shot of Amy and also at the end of the song we had done another one with her saying “I hope your happy”. With many different shots we had also done a shot where all the pictures of the couple falling down in front of the camera this was the main shot we had used. We had used mainly used long shots for most of our video.

Our video was mainly full of memories in which we had many flash backs in which we had used a variable amount of shots in order to make our video look more presentable.

The mis en scene for our video was located in many different places such as in town, the park, college and also the college resturant “Shelly's”. in this video we did not need to use many props for our project. However, I had brought some of my Indian clothes in which I had needed for the beginning of the video and the middle of the video. We didn't need that many crops but Amy had brought in her camera in order to take some pictures of me and Dean together in which we will throw on the floor. The costumes in the video were different colours as the Indian clothes were bright colours used but in the video you can not see most of the clothes that I wear because the video is mostly based in black and white.

we had used a vary amount of sounds with pur music to keep the track up beat we had used a bit of indian in it and also had used a lot of different variety of instruments to get our track done. the sound of the music works out well with the lyrics as there is a lot of beat ans its not to fast its at the right pace for a depressing music video music video.

Ther target audiance for this video is mainly aimed at mostly teenegers mostly for girls because the whole video is about a girl who has just been left heartbroken. i think this kind of music would be mostly be screened on you tube and also maybe on some channels but our video is not the best of the best so i think we have done well and have come up with a great idea however, in many ways i think we could have done much better but o well!
