Production Blog: Props

We began deciding are roles in the group. As we had not decided them yet we were unable to film this weekend. Another reason we could not film was due us needing further preparation. My role for this weekend because we weren't filming was to acquire props. Props are a necessary part of music videos. We had already done some research on the props we had chosen. I found many things in my own house that I could use. Certain I was unable to find but for most of it I got it in my house. The few things I was unable to find at home I eventually found in a store. Even after searching some stores there were still things I was unable to find. This shouldn't affect are music video to much as I was able to find some alternatives. These props were not very crucial to the video but they would be nice to have. Some of them I was able to make. For are clothing I had to get things that could get wet. The theme of are music video involves water so clothing for water was crucial. They also had to fit with the color theme of the video. Clothing that was too bright could not match the background and make it seem out of place. Lights are also props I had to get for the video. Having the right lighting in the video was important.
