Diary Entry 7

This week we have taken more photos of the location, props and costume. This is so that it makes it more clear as to why we chose these particular objects and places to feature in our music video.

Props

The props we have used include: A drum set, microphone stand and microphone, a keyboard and drum sticks. We chose not to include guitars in our performance as there are no guitars present in the song. Also we covered the instruments with leaves to again link back to Florence And The Machine as she uses alot of wildlife and flowers. For example on her album cover 'Lungs' She is infront of trees and flowers. Below is a picture of our props.

Location

We decided to have our music video in Plessey Woods. This is because the song howl's connotations is all about a wolf and the lyrics 'Bloodied feet across the hallowed ground.' Would be outside. We imagined the song outside as our storyline was based on a transformation of a girl to a wolf which would be seen out side.

Costume

For the main performer we decided the band should we in all black to emphasise the sinister side of the performer. Yet for the narrative for Charlotte (main character) we decided to have her in white to show their are two sides to her evil and good. On the other hand for the male character we decided he should be in black as the two main characters are opposing. Also this was to emphasise the conflict between the two of them.
