Music Video: Production, Research and Development

Here is where I will put some developments made during the creation of this music video project. This blog is written by me and may be referred to in other parts of the project.

Star(s) name: 

Rachelle 

Name Ideas:

• Wynona

• WyNa

• Nana

• Willow

• Heath

• Scilla

• Iris

• Primrose

• Daphne

• Viola

At first, we were kind of lost in the direction we wanted to go to in terms of the stage name. After discussing and brainstorming, we decided to make our stage names flower related. We had this idea after realizing that it would be pretty interesting if the stage names of both of the artists in this song could conflict with one another so it would be a cool coincidence in relation to the music video which is about a separation of friends. Learning this I decided to search up flowers that bloom in the winter as it would contrast to the stage name of the other artist whose name will be related to a summer blooming flower (Jasmine).

Jasmine

Name ideas:

• Jasmine

• Dahlia

• Clematis

• Poppy

• Daisy

• Lily

• Marigold

• Zinnia

• Vinca

• Peony

Jasmine’s (my) name was the main inspiration for keeping our stage names flower based, so we decided to keep the name of the artist and the stage name the same.

Since our chosen song for this project is Billie Eilish's 'Birds of a Feather', my teammate, Rachelle proposed the idea of incorporating a symbolic moment where the stars release birds, representing a sense of freedom and new beginnings, which are one of the main themes of our narrative. Anticipating the need for multiple takes to capture the scene effectively, Rachelle decided to purchase 50 birds to ensure we had enough footage to work with. This preparation allows us to fully execute our vision while maintaining flexibility during the filming process.
