Set Design

While Mina and Sarah focused on costume, Chuffy and I were busy organising all of our set design.  We began by discussing each set and what would be included and then collected images that represented each set the best.



Planning our set design:

We decided our first photoshoot would be very girly.  It would involve things, such as hanging balloons from the walls, flowers, possibly petals on the floor, et.c.

Even though we didn't use this image, I believe it very much reflects the sort of colours and mood that we are wanting to represent in this particular photoshoot with Emma.









We then concentrated on the cafe and bar sets because our whole group were still very unsure about what we wanted to do in our final photoshoot.  Here is an image we used to represent our ideas for the cafe:

We discussed that would need to have a fake backdrop that the workers could move during the music video to change the cafe into a bar.  We thought that our first backdrop would include hanging this on the walls, very much like this and then we could change this backdrop into lights on the walls for our nightspot.

The chairs and floor in this picture are also exactly what we would want in our music video.





Chuffy and I had trouble deciding what our final shoot was because Sarah and Mina really wanted a burlesque shoot but we knew this would probably be too much.  We discussed using the silhouette idea as one photoshoot instead of using this idea in her dressing room.  This still needs to be decided properly and in our next production meeting on Monday we will have to decide what our decisions for our final photoshoot will be as on Wednesday we will present our ideas.

Consequently, I have learnt that our group does need to face our problems earlier in our production meetings instead of avoiding them as Chuffy and I had to deal with it on our own and if Sarah and Mina aren't keen on our ideas, we will not have long to decide what we will do with the final photoshoot.
