filming plan






since i was the one who was going to do most of the editing i spent an hour drawing up a detailed set of notes for personal use (hence the scruffy handwriting) so that i could correctly line up the footage with the music and also make sure that the shots are the correct length.

other music video for our song



this is another muisc video for the song "misplaced" by audrianna cole, this video also focuses on a fairy tale theme although it takes on a different story (the tin man) rather than alice in wonderland, another thing that is similar to our plans is that it plays on the theme of sadness.

  2. Siting under the tree singing
  3. tea party (deserted table)
  4. walking down the corridor

Camera Prezi

For research and planning, we produced a prezi to understand the variety of camera angles and why they are used. The reason for producing this, is to gather information that could help us create a more realistic and interesting video for our music video.

Music Video Ideas

After deciding the theme for the music video of 'Alice and Wonderland' we came up with more detailed ideas to use whilest filming the video.
  • The lyrics within the song is about how the artist feels misplaced and alone searching for the one that she loves. From the lyrics, we decided to make Wonderland deserted with only Alice left. The reason for this is that the narrative will follow the lyrics.
  • Due to the fact that there is no one in wonderland we will still have the remainds of the scenes, so that the audience will understand clearly what is going on. So there will be the tea party table with the remainders of the cups, saucers and empty chairs.

  • Another scene we thought of is the tree where the chisher cat sits, however there will be no cat, just the empty tree.
  • Alice could also be walking down empty hall ways with faceless characters walking past, so there is a sense of belonging from a time where she just missed.
  • To end the video, we thought of her walking into a room or though trees (where the queen of hearts belongs) and cards falling constantly over her as she walks though. Just before finishing the video, she would place the crown that belonged to the queen on her head - implying that she has no become the queen of wonderland.
