50's Make Up Process - MISE EN SCENE



Above is the link to a YouTube video that I used when doing the make up of my main actor in my music video. This shows the care and consideration I put in when ensuring that my actor looked appropriate for the era and situation in which my character is is. I did this as after much research, I discovered that many audience members are mostly appealed to a product due to its mise en scene. Therefore, I had to make sure that not only did my actor play the part, but that she also looked the part. 

This video gave me a guideline as to how to create a look that my audience would recognise as suited to the era in which my video is set it.

Diary #21

After gathering photographs from locations after my filming of the music video, I managed to have a clear idea of what photos should be used for my Digipak and Magazine Advert. 

I successfully created both products after two to three drafts of each one. If i feel unhappy about both products or either products later on, I might adapt and change them. 

For both i gathered feedback in order to ensure that my products appealed to my target audience. 

All photos on both products were taken by myself. 

Diary #20

I have been extremely busy filming my actual music video this week. I had to wake up very early and begin the 'Hair and Make Up' process of my artist. I looked at YouTube videos and researched into how to create 50's make-up. This was important as mise en-scene is essential in the creation of any product as it is what makes the actual product visually appealing. 

I then went to the woods in reading and walked around until i found a number of places i felt was suitable to film in. This is where the actual production of the filming took place, sometimes taking varies takes in order to ensure each shot was useable. I tried to be adventurous with the shots I took. Taking some in the reflection of water, others through sunlight. All making my music video appear more professional

I then traveled to Basingstoke to my Uncles house, in which i filmed the next sequence of my music video. Here we worked outdoors ensuring we captured the emotion and sad situation of the character being kicked out by her mother. We tried to portray this from both viewpoints, therefore some shots are shown from the main characters POV, and others from the mothers. 

As the light began to dim, we got some shots of the windows, and of the mother looking through them, in order to highlight the sadness from both characters sides. 

Thankfully, there were no problems in terms of weather or accidents. 

Actor Release Form


This is an actor release form that is shown to have been signed by the main performer in my music video. This is essential as it verifies that "Sasha Manzanero" agrees to have her performance acts and appearance of herself used for the production of my music video. Her signature makes the agreement official and professional, ensuring there will be no difficulties later, when my final product is posted to the public.
