Throughout this process of creating a Storyboard Animatic we have learnt a lot about what we want to achieve within our video, regarding camera, distance, movement, and angle. We have now emulated some of these shots within our piece such as close ups on the instruments and the band throughout the performance part. We have also aimed to emulate the mirror shot shown by having Ross cycling away from the screen getting closer to the mirror of him before disappearing.
Whilst constructing our Storyboard, we came to the decision that we would quite like to have quite an illustrative link between lyrics and visuals. This led us to base our narrative on a teenage boy who has broken up with his girlfriend; as she has recovered and moved on, he is distraught and thus leads him to go off the rails.
We also used some of The 1975 videos and took inspiration from the locations they use. The shots where they are in a skate park on a half pipe we felt were really effective. Although we didn't go to a skate park, we did emulate a few of these shots by using the edge of a bomb hole in which we filmed at. We felt the mise-en-scene in this was really good and the location really fitted our concept for our music video.
Although this task took a very similar format from last year, within this years animatic we had to think about a lot more making it a great deal more complex. Whilst last year we thought from shot to shot, this year we had a very different task. We didn't really work in a chronological order to begin with and instead just thought of all the different shots we would like to include at some point throughout the song.
