Production process /filming

-

The production stage involved filming my music video based on my storyboard and planning.

I filmed in:

  • A classroom (transformed into a bedroom)
  • A music room (for piano scenes)


 My aim was to create a realistic and emotional atmosphere



  • Classroom → main narrative scenes
  • Music room → piano performance

I used a projector to create a rainy mood and enhance the emotional tone.

Filming Process

📞 Phone Scene

  • Filmed close-ups of the phone and facial expressions
  • Focused on showing rejection and emotion

✍️ Writing Scene

  • Used over-the-shoulder shots
  • Captured details of the letter

🎹 Piano Scene

  • Filmed mid shots and close-ups
  • Focused on emotional performance




The actor was directed to:

  • Show natural emotions
  • Avoid overacting
  • Focus on subtle facial expressions

👉 This creates realism, similar to Adele’s style

Creative Critical Reflection

1.  How do your products represent social groups or issues? My music video and the digipack  represent that teenage girl who is suffering from heartbreak and emotional trauma. Representation that is real and relatable instead of what’s very common in mainstream media realism and relatability. This image demonstrates a close- up look at human emotion: The close-up  look of the character's face. The viewers can clearly see her emotion and in this way have an emotional connection to her, thanks to a close-up  view at the time. That resonates with Stuart Hall's perspective that the source of meaning comes from media. My product is not like the typical images of women that come from media: They too may have glamour and perfection. There's a limited focus on my character’s clothing such as a t-shirt and jeans, with minimal makeup. This makes her feel real and authentic and it resonates with the audience from a personal and emotional perspective. The heartbreak and emotiona...
