1:Pre Production Techniques for the Creative Media Industries

I am producing a music video for my client DJ MOSSY that will include a main narrative and storyline, which will be, followed by performance techniques showed by different shots and transitions .The main story of the video will be well suited to the song which is titled Runaway for the narrative it will be a character running away from an situation and through the hole of the video it will show the process of the character running away in different locations and a variety of shots. The Narrative will have shot reverse shots and transitions of DJ MOSSY mixing on his deck, which will come in, and drops and different parts of the song.

The budget of my production will be £3000 this will fund the cameras, actors, software and social media advertisement. The way I will finance my project is I will charge my client my budget which I would want paying before the making of the project and then the profits of the production will go to my client and 15%of the profit will go to me .The reason for the £3000 pounds to be paid up front is so I have enough money to fund the project.

The production and pre production equipment I will require and will be used to make the production will be:

  • ·      JVC camera
  • ·      Sony HD hand held camera
  • ·      Tripod
  • ·      DJ deck
  • ·      I phone 6 plus
  • ·      Adobe Premier Pro
  • ·      Apple Mac Monitor


 I will also require a trained actor because I will have some one reliable to rely on and I can get a top performance for the narrative of the video .My client will also feature in my video to promote him as a artist and to show performance elements. The transport is already provided which will be my car, which will be used to travel to film locations, and it also will feature in the music video. No facility will have to be hired because the locations I will be using will be natural environments and live setting. For my crew I will require an assistant for editing the footage who will have a lot of experience using the software.

Before the process a risk assessment will be produced for health and safety. Also I will make a pre production schedule so every thing is organised and no time is wasted and so a deadline can be reached as quickly as possible.


Lastly as the song is a remix of an original song to avoid copyright issues I will send an email to the creator of the song Runaway so they can approve of the cover and give us the right if they charge for the use of the song this will be added to the price that will be charged to my client for the production of the music video.If i do not get the rights it would
