Make Up Inspirations



Make Up Inspiration

Since my Female talent has ginger hair I looked into what types of colours will suit hair skin and hair colour. I found that browns and blacks (not too dark) where quite common to have as eye shadow, along with more vibrant colours like blues and purples. Many of the images incorporate a red lip which I wanted to use on my talent because I think it works well against the pale skin. Quite often I saw just natural  make up too which also works well because the hair colour ginger already stands out alone. I will also be using natural make up in my music video.

Health & Safety Production Assessment

Safety Hazards (what to look out for):

Wires- if there are wires in the way someone could trip over and hurt themselves. To prevent this I will tape the wires down or use something to cover them. 


Filming in a dark room- If objects are in the way it is a possibility that people could trip over. To prevent this I will make sure there are no objects in the way when I am filming and when there is not much light. 


Fire- Incase of a fire I need to make sure where the closest safest exits are and keep an eye out for anything that could catch fire or is hazardous to fire. I also need to make sure there is no heavy equipment blocking fire exits. 


Electrical items- Everyone needs to be careful when using electrical items, especially when there is not much light. Don't pull on any wires or trip on any wires because it will damage the equipment (same as before I will tape wires down and make sure nothing is in the way for when it's darker and in the light to).  


Falling objects e.g. Camera, Tripod- Objects could fall, such as the camera could fall off the tripod and hurt someone, plus could damage the camera. Also the tripod could fall with the camera still on it. To prevent this I need to make sure the camera is securely on the tripod and that the tripod legs are evenly balanced out, in order for it not too fall. I should also be near the camera and tripod a lot of the time, incase it should fall and at least I can keep an eye on it and prevent it from falling.

Story Board




Story Board
I made a story board of each shot of my ideas, for my music video. It also includes the timings on everything, so I know when to do each shot in time and when the instrumentals and singing come in (with different shots too). I have also included the Mise en Scene in each shot, of what is going on with lighting and some costumes. Another aspect of my story bored includes cinematography and I have worked out what I want the camera to do on each shot whether that be a high angle, close up shot or a zoom etc.

This will now help me with my music video as I have a clearer idea of what I want to do.
