Introduction to my music video

At the beginning of my research I have come cross a different genres of music and I have noticed that more Pop/Rock music videos like to combine narrative and performance in there music videos. Although I have a preference this as it has more to proffer to the audience in understanding what the narrative and the music is about. I researched Pop/Rock artists, “Kelly Clarkson” and “Avril lavigne” and have decided to do my music video on Pop/Rock genre. I noticed that narrative/performance is a solution convention in Pop/Rock music videos and I will do this in my own music video, Furthermore I want my music video to be faintly more narrative as I prefer narrative based storylines as they usually make sense to the lyrics and are more interesting than watching just performance which I noticed is very ordinary together with “Pop” genre music. Consequently I wish to combine performance and narrative together in my music video I have decided to do the song “Anything But ordinary” by Artist Avril Lavigne.

Chosen characters and song

At the begining of my animated music video. It consists of my storyboard images played in sequence with the soundtrack over the visuals. This gives a feel and a rough image of how I want my music video to look. Although I continued animating different sections of the storyline. Rather than animating the scenes in order, I  chose to just pick particular scenes I wanted finish first. Once these were finished I would begin layering them over the top of the Animatic. This way it makes it easier to edit and I can see what needs to go where and how long each shot should be.
