Preliminary exercise: Narrative music video Initial tasks: planning

Statement of intent

I plan to create a music video for the song is radioactive by imagine dragons. the story is about somebody flashbacking to when they were being beaten up then cutting back to them working out and training then we see the same person that beat up the main character this time the protagonist knocks them out and finally gets his revenge.

In the first 15 seconds the man will be thinking deeply and in disappointment about how he didn't stand up for himself. the regret of him not being brave enough leads him to be working out as his goal to show that person that he is capable enough. Once he is strong enough he will challenge the person again this time he will have more confidence than last time as he is more physically fit and learnt better tactics.

Treatment: slow turn to the people fighting, quick cuts thought

Scene 1 : The camera man pans towards the two people fighting and then the main protagonist get knocked out by an upper cut.

Scene 2 : the footage cuts to the protagonist waking up from that nightmare of a fight that he had then he turns on the lamp and then proceeds to lift weights.

Scene 3 : it will cut to the man to the man fighting the person again and this time getting his revenge it will end in victory

Casting: I will be the only person acting in the video

Location: I will be filming in my hallways and my bedroom as I will need the bedroom for the scene where the person will wake up from the flashback in his sleep and start working out. The hallway is where the right will happen

Shot list : Once we are introduced to the characters there will be an over the shoulder this will help symbolise a fight as the person will have a serious look on their face once the fight starts the camera angle will change to a medium shot so that we can get more clarity of what is going on. When the protagonist gets knocked out the camera will track and pan to zoom into his face as he will be unconscious. Then we will have another over the shoulder and there will also we a close up of the face when the protagonist wakes up. The camera will then cut to him lifting weights from a medium shot. There will be a lot of medium and close ups of the protagonist as he will be deeply thinking about the flashback to the fight.
