Plan List

CAST
Alice- Contempory Dancer
Levan- Street dancer
Dom- Kayne West Look-a-like


NEED TO RECRUIT 6 MODELS and 2 MAIN MODELS
we have decided to include dance in our video, to portray talent and enthusiasm. The use of a male and female dancer makes it equal and typical to a Kanye West video as his videos never tend to be sexist either for or against women. Levan is a talented street dance performer who has entered many competitions and lives and breathes dance. The Street dance technique was used to emphasize the urban theme of R&B. Alice was chosen to perform Contemporary dance, to show the individual artist differences in style of dancing (Kanye West used ballet dancers in his 'Runaway" video). Alice was specifically chosen because she is an enthusiastic dancer who participates in various dance productions for different companies. We decided to recruit models, which are still to be selected, as it would create a more realistic vibe to the video, as there would be more people that haven't been viewed in our work before. If necessary myself, Mel and Kim will act as models in the video as well to make it look more effective.  


PROPS
Glitter
Drums
Mega Phone
The glitter is going to be used to draw attention to the beat of the music by being used on a drum and on the floor whilst the models are walking, causing it to move around and bounce. It also creates a glamourous connotation, fitting in with the story of our video (catwalk/fashion show). The mega phone also adds to this effect, being used to call the models. The person holding the megaphone will be our actor for Kanye West, making him the centre of attention and making him seem important, subtly promoting him as an artist.


COSTUME
Denim Jeans/Shorts/Shirts
Heels
White Tops
Bold Eye Makeup- Fake Eyelashes
Volumised Hair
The bold eye makeup and volumised hair is typical to the R&B genre, and through our previous research we concluded that it is used in most videos, as a way of objectifying women. The heels also add to this sex appeal, yet support our video theme as they are seen as a fashionable accessory. The denim items have been chosen as costume to match the song 'Christian Dior DENIM flow' and they are also generally seen as a wardrobe fashion essential. The white top was selected for simplicity and to emphasize everything else in the video without distraction.


LOCATION
Dance Studio
Theatre
Outside for Dancing
The locations that we has chosen are suitable for the plan of the video and suit the genre, as the theatre and dance studio are simplistic building without decoration so we can film the scenes effectively without unwanted details. We have decided to film the dancing outside to suit the genre and create the street feeling entirely.
