Planning Sheila

As we have changed the song we obviously had to plan our new video. We sat down with the lyrics like before and annotated them with our ideas about what we were going to do for each line. This meant we'd have a piece of film for each lyric so we wouldn't get to editing and realise we didn't have enough footage. We also decided on what our actors will look like and who our actors will be, Myself and Tana will feature in the video.

We decided to follow the story for each character in the song, "Sheila", "Jack" & "Georgina". For "Sheila" & "Georgina" they would both look rock chicky and rough, like its 5pm and they're still in the and clothes and make up from being out the night before, you can see this in the images below (note they are all celebrities!). "Jack" would be your typical chavvy "gangster" drug dealer look - hoodie, jogging bottoms etc.

BIG PROBLEM!

HUGE problem!!!...

Our first day of filming: We go out and realise that the song we chose just wasn't going to work! We planned well, so that wasn't the problem, but our ideas were too "big" for the time, budget and equipment we had, and so we were hit with directors block!

Luckily whilst we sat on location in a state of panic about what we were going to do "Sheila" by Jamie. T came on the radio. We all began to sing along and thought about the video we could make for the song. Perhaps it was fate, perhaps not, either way we decided this was the right song for us and got to planning our new video right away!
