Storyboard: Idea 2

• When one of my group first explained his ideas for the video, I thought that the meaning behind it was loneliness or the feeling of loss, so using these ideas I came up with this for the overall story of the video, it does seem a little short for a five minute song so we may need to come up with some more ideas to make the story of the video seem more fluid.

Storyboard: Idea 1

• Our groups first idea revolves around our character dreaming about his life and how repetitive it is, in this dream he then imagines that he breaks from this dull and boring cycle, and imagines himself escaping, when he does this he leaves behind his typical life and lives in the life he longs for in the memories he wishes to immerse himself in once again. He then awakes for real and so begins another predictable day of life, never forgetting those cherished memories which he longs for. 

Creativity

We can all use our minds to create brilliant and creative ideas but we need a few things to truly use all of our potential...

• Sleep - We all need this so our minds are fully awake when we step out of bed, (AND DON'T FORGET BREAKFAST !)
• Exercise - Again we all need this but the creative potential that it creates only lasts for a few hours.
• Daydreams - The most important thing we can do, this is what we can use to create imaginative ideas that we can use, unfortunately we can also over-think our ideas and lose our originality.
• Education - Your not going to get far without inspiration and the ideas of other people can inspire your own.
• Challenges - Challenge yourself as much as you can, you won't get far if you have no life experiences to inspire yourself, when you challenge yourself keep a notepad at the side of your bed you can note down your ideas so that they're there when you look back.

Analysis of a Music Video 2: Kasabian - Fire

Shot	To introduce the members of the band we have close-ups of each of them including the main singer who is seen In the reflection of the window, it also introduces the setting, which looks like a rural, quiet American town.	Analysis

	“Take me into the night and I’m an easy lover”	We have cuts of the setting and the band members to introduce them to the audience.

Shot	The video starts to use tracking shots as it begins to get faster, we watch each member looking suspiciously, and so you know that something’s going to happen.	Analysis
