Mise-en scene planning:
CLAMPS!
COSTUME: For the bed scene I would like to use pyjamas as I am of course sleeping in bed. The pyjamas have to be dishevelled to demonstrate the messiness of my life. For the park scene I must be fully blacked out to convey mystery and confusion within the audience. A small detail I want is using water to cover my face to make it seem like I am sweating as I want to transition to the nightmare it helps the audience understand my stress and pain easier.
LIGHTING: For the bed scene, A lamp is going to be used. A sleeping atmosphere must be created so I do not want high key lighting as that is too bright for me to sleep at but mid key lighting to highlight my sweaty face and my constant shaking in bed. For the park scene, It is mostly going to be low key lighting as it is a nightmare I want it to be dark ( not too dark but enough to create this feeling of doom.
Actors: For most of the video it will be me in the video. In some cuts, I might add my little brother in the mix to try and demonstrate anxiety or PTSD. Its best that I wont show my brother not because he doesn't want to be shown but in order to create this mysterious and ominous character which I ( the character) have sleepless nights over. My brother is a symbol for anxiety and my search for him will create that narrative.
Make up: No make up for any actors only water used to demonstrate sweat on my face. Make up is not something that I am knowledgeable in so therefore I'll steer clear of that.
Props: A lamp, water bottle, football and many other things. There are not many props in my music video as it may distract and deter the audience too much I want to captivate them with my story and ideals rather than using props. Some props may prove useful to create meaning but I'll think of what to use.
Setting: A park specifically a football concrete field where I want to show a lot of things in my music video, My house is also another area, specifically my bed is where I want most of the scene to be it is where I want to show my nightmares and PTSD I want to add another location but it needs thinking through due to many factors like what is another location to add to the atmosphere that I need for the music video.

SHOOTING SCHEDULE:
Have done some of the music video filming but need to do more. Around 20 seconds of footage that I have filmed but need to do more and perhaps with more quality and much more shots. I feel like I need to add more variety and faster pace with my filming which will probably be over the weekend.
I will use my sister's phone as it is the latest over mine which means better camera quality which is a boost in my production. I will shoot over the weekend as it is the area where I have the most time.
