Set Design meeting

Today, we met with the set designer (Fran) to discuss our idea for our music video. We first talked through our pitch and what our music video was about and played her the song 'Golden Hour' so she could grasp an idea for the aesthetic we were going for. Then, we showed her visual pictures of what we wanted each of our sets to look like and we talked through them, discussing what she could make and what we had to source. 

There were no problems with any of our pitches which was convenient as we now don't have to adapt our idea. She said that she could create a distressed wall for us and a rustic wooden table. In terms of her creating the wooden table, we had to think about how much of the table legs we wanted in our music video shots, we came to the conclusion that the table legs did not to be seen and therefore she could create a more realistic table that relates to our initial idea the most. This table will also be able to be detachable from its legs and therefore we can use it as the floor in one of our sets. 

We discussed the idea of having some sort of swinging pendulums and she said that she could create something for us that imitates the movement of the clock piece. 

After this meeting, I made a set and props checklist, naming who needed to source what to keep us organised and prepared for our shoot day. Having all our set pieces on one document is also useful so we can visualize the video as a whole as well as to make sure we don't have anything missing on the day we shoot our music video. 

We need about 20 clocks for our shoot and have to source these ourselves so we need to search for clocks in charity shops and car boot sales etc. because we want to make sure the wall of clocks is full.
