Costumes, Props and Equipment needed for filming (overall)

COSTUMES

For costumes we were quite specific in what we wanted Ella to wear due to the songs lyrics, the artist and the vibe that we wanted to carry out in our video. We actually went to her house after sixth form and looked through her wardrobe to try and find the best clothes to wear!!

We settled on this vintage cream tie up at the front blouse and also a charity shop vintage golden lace skirt, me and Anna both agreed that it went with the vibe that we wanted to portray and Ella looked super lush!


This was what Ella wore in the video when we filmed at Ashton Court


PROPS

We had quite a few props to use and bring to start filming for our music video. We were going for an earthy vintage look and to complete this we used the props to help! The props help us to fulfil the genre and conventions of not only our song but also our music video, they're often the part that the audience like to focus onto creating excitement and a focal point!


I bought the flowers from a shop and we used them in multiple ways 
and in different shots



Anna bought the rocks and stones, also the glitter as well! And we thought that added to the nature aspect of using the Earth  
Again the flowers we used in multiple ways, on the floor, in Ella's hair, behind the mirror, in the bath. they were very much a re-occuring feature for us!
Other props that we used were...


  • Glitter
  • Mirror's 
  • Disposable Camera
  • Candles

EQUIPMENT

We had multiple pieces of equipment that we wanted to use in our video to be able to get the best results possible, this consisted off...


  • A DSLR camera to film (Canon 600D)
  • A tri-pod to steady the camera
  • Then vintage pentax camera 
  • Go Pro


The DSLR and tripod were standard filming equipment we needed to actually be able to film the music video with and the Go Pro was the other camera we used to be able to capture the time lapse easily.  The pentax camera was more of a prop but still was able to take pictures as it was a film camera!
