Making the music video.

Here are a few clips of the making of my human stop motion music video. In these videos, there is My model, Caroline and my sister. I had me sister there to help with moving the props for every photograph. Over all, it took about 3 and a half hours to take all the photographs for my music video.

Digipaks.

Research.

A DVD digipak are special packs that usually contain DVDs and CD's. They usually fold out to house a number of DVDs and CD's. Many digipaks contain a booklet that includes a list of things. Including: track listings, lyrics, pictures of the band, pictures from the music video, biographical info about the band and an interview with the band. Many people would buy a digipak (rather than looking at videos online) because they can include exclusive content, they can be limited edition, they can be seen as a product of merchandise (fans see value in the product) and a physical copy can have sentimental value to fan.

Proposal

I have decided to work alone and produce a stop motion video. I have looked on 'Jamendo' to find a non copyrighted track to use for my music video. I tried to find a track that would be easy to symbolise through stop motion. I have found a track called 'Dark Horse' by Bella Ruse. This track has a lot of refferences to love and i though it would be quite simple to come up with different ways to symbolise it.
I have decided to use a model in my stop motion. My model will be Caroline Craske. I also have decided that i am going to do the stop motion in the TV studio, probably also using green screen. I am going to do the stop motion on the floor, there for i am going to use a sheet of green paper on the floor for my model to lay on.
I am going to need a camera and a tripod as i an going to point the camera to the floor. I may be able to suspend the camera from the scaffolding on the ceiling in the TV studio so there will be not shadows over the set. I am also going to use the studio lighting in the TV studio.
