The proposal is for a music video for the song "Run for Cover" by Artist-CAZZETTE. The concept involves a boy running away from a robot and clown. The video will consist of shots of the boy running intercut with over-the-shoulder shots of the pursuers and close-ups of their faces when they sing the lyrics. It will be filmed outside on a sunny or rainy day with minimal lighting and set changes needed. The director has listed influences and crew members, and noted potential production concerns around budget, scheduling, locations, costumes/props, and camera work.

2. Proposal
I am here to show my proposal, the genre would be house based but maybe
Dubstep because it wouldn’t matter what music because it would be best with no
lyrics…
My Idea would be a boy is running away from a robot/clown and he is just running
most of the video but also the clown and the robot after him and when it says “run
for cover” it will have a the robot and clown saying it.
These are the rules that will need to be in the Music Video:
1. It can be narrative but also Concept because it is a bit random but has a little
story to it.
2. Firstly when the boy is running and so is the clown and robots, the shot
would change from being a shot so you can see the whole body of the
character. Then an over the shoulder to look at the bad characters then for
when the robot and clown are saying the lyrics it would be a extreme close
up on their face.
3. Need a realistic robot and a clown but for the boy he would just be a normal
boy who would look very scared.
4. We will shoot outside for the running but for the lyric bit just need a black
background.
5. There would be no change to the lighting as because it would be outside and
mostly it would be a sunny day or a rainy day.
6. I will make the running slow down, so it would look like it is in slow motion.
7. The boy will be in casual clothes and two other people would be dressed as
a clown and a robot.
8. The Sequence:
(a) Take one shot at the boy
(b) Take another over the shoulder viewing the followers
(c) Do a same shot as the first one but towards the followers
(d) Then 2 shots for the close up one each on each character
9. Nothing is needed to be set up just the camera which is properly not going to
be on a tripod if raining.
Music Video Influences
Mojo – Blues ----------------------- www.youtube.com/watch?v=otoSrFSPXtI
Hoodie Allen – You’re Not A Robot - www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBJljQuf2Vo

3. Rihanna – Umbrella -------------- www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iQRXuAo6Eg
The Used – I Come Alive --------www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i8nj9NePKA
Mojo blues influenced me because it has a clown and I would want a clown to
chases someone.
Hoodie Allen’s video shows robots chasing him this is relevant to the mojos
influences because they both are similar.
Rihanna’s video has raining in it hopefully it would be raining on the day so makes
it more dramatic.
The used video inspired me because it has a boy running but I changed it so he
would be getting chased.

Production Concerns
Budget- £0, I am able to be successful because I will have to
manage my own equipment and software. I will find where I will
film my project.
Time – well we may not be in, I mean by this is someone may not
show up to a schedule time to record the video. We could try

4. making sure there is a day where everyone is free and set that as a
day to work on.
Venue- this may not have the day we need to record on which
would be bad but we could pre-book a date to make sure we get a
spot in the venue.
Work- we will need to be well organised which is relevant to the
time concern because if we are not working on time then we may
not be able to finish editing or small scenes for the music video.
Costume/Props – we may not have the right costumes and props
we need for the shoot because we won’t be able to record without
props and costumes.
Camera Work – we will need a person who has a sturdy hand
because if not it may shake so it would be best to put on a tripod
but even then it could not be a smooth pan if so may need a
suitable Camera Person.
