jasmine blackborow's presentation

Today a university student called jasmine Blackborow came to our lesson to talk to us about her music video that won a prize in the BBC blast competition and about her three weeks at the BBC. she made this video for her a level media with three other girls.





after her gap year and celebrating the good news she met the producer. her name is "margo". jasmine described her to be a very important person in the music video industry. jasmine was the director for the music video. she worked for "black dog productions". jasmine was given the song "let's dance to joy division" by the wombats. jasmine created a number of spider diagrams to show her ideas, here is one...




then she had to create something called a treatment. a treatment is a paper version of the music video. it is also used in the pitch for a music video. it consists of every idea that is going to be in the video and it has to be highly detailed. for example she had to find a picture of the exact type of confetti she wanted.



jasmine made storyboards to show what goes where. a spot list to show what happens in each scene and a lyrics time line to show what happens when key lyrics where said.

at the end jasmine gave a few tips on how to create a successful music video:

"Make sure that you motivate your actors and be very specific when telling them what to do."

"Keep location to a minimum and only have 2-3."

"There are no limits to what you can do."

"Just go out and enjoy it."
