Copyright Permission

Our music video is our interpretation of Drake's song (Started from the bottom). Therefore we needed permission from the artist or the company who owns him, so that we can use his song for our music video.

Mood Board

Our music video expresses the emotions of an individual character on his journey to become successful and overall happy.
The mood board shows in images the emotions that will be represented in the video.

Risk Assessment

As we are planning to produce a music video there are always going to be some issues as such we must plan for as many of these as possible and have a plan of action to rectify this and we must plan ahead to avoid that what we cannot change. As such I am going to list as many as I can think of
One of the performers is unable to attend due to circumstance; if this happens we should first film scenes that do not contain this performer. If the performer is still unable to attend we need a backup performer.
The weather changes between scenes; this is something we can’t change therefore we must check the weather beforehand and plan ahead.
A performer gets lost/ doesn’t turn up; contact details should be made accessible to minimize this.
If the camera battery dies: Bring spare batteries/ make sure camera is fully charged.
If there are too many  people in the area; film the scene later when there are less people around.


A performer gets injured; make sure that the is a first aid kit available.
