My Performers Clothes

My performer will be wearing an animal onesie. This is completely subverting from the original video as the outfit is weird and unusual which is partly why I think that the video would be successful. As it is different, it will make people speak about it and show their friends or family, and maybe even share it on social media.

Through making a music video that is completely different to conventional music videos, it will capture people's attention.



He will be wearing this sort of onesie, and because he is going publicly around London in this outfit, people would be surprised as it is not a 'normal' outfit to go out in public in.

It is also amusing seeing a wild animal do everything that a human would do, and this would be going against the typical conventions of a music video which only consists of people dancing or following a storyline.

Song Choice

The song I have chosen to use is Justin Bieber's 'What do you Mean?'. This is because it is an upbeat song, and I am able to let the artist have fun, as well as having a storyline to it.

The genre of this song is pop or tropical house.

The style of clothing that the performers in the original video wore were quite casual, the type of clothing that people could wear on a daily basis. Justin Bieber wore a white t-shirt, a black hoodie, ripped jeans and some slip on trainers. This is because he is at a skate park, therefore showing that he is representing a teenage boy who enjoys skating, he is dressed to fit the scene.

When he is in the bedroom, he is wearing the same outfit (without the hoodie).

22/01/2016
Names of Risk   Assessors  
Chloe Stephenson

HAZARD OBSERVED
RISK BEFORE CONTROL MEASURES

E.g. Injury, death, separated  from group
PERSONS AT RISK


CONTROL MEASURES

How to prevent these risks from happening.
Traffic accident.

Injury, shock, in serious cases – death, and maybe separation from the group if someone has to go to the hospital.
Everyone, the person filming (me) and the people who will be in my video (the artists).
I could try to keep my group away from the busy roads and go to the places in London which are less busy than some of the other places in London. This means that the traffic wouldn't be as bad. 
Travelling on Foot.

Injury and separation from group.
Everyone.
Either everyone has to stick together and there should be a meeting point in case someone gets lost, or get a cab/drive to the location. 
Use of public transport: Trains
Getting lost, separation
The people on the train.
One again, make sure everyone is together when getting on the trains and tubes. Have a meeting point on the platform to make sure everyone is there before getting on the trains and tubes.
Exposure to weather.

Sun burn, heatstroke, makeup running, hypothermia, snow may make people stranded. 
The people outside, who I am working with. 
Have everyone wear sun cream if the weather is hot and sunny and have people wrap up really warm if it is cold. Put on lots of layers to avoid being too cold. 
Illness or injury.

When walking someone may fall or twist an ankle.
Unable to do the video due to health issues.
Person could be contagious. 
Anyone.

Are there going to be public people there?

Might come into the shot.
Confrontation.

The people I am filming
I could go to backroads where not many people go to, to avoid being around lots of the public. This could avoid confrontation and gives me the opportunity to have a clearer shot.
Am I going to be filming on anyone’s land?

No. 


Do I have permission to film where I am?

It is is an open area, therefore there is nobody to ask because there is no specific owner of the land.


Crossing the road.

A car may not see the person and therefore not have enough time to slow down.
Everyone, the person filming (me) and the people who will be in my video (the artists).
Don't allow anyone to cross the road when it is not safe. Only cross at pedestrian crossings and look multiple times before actually going.

Try to avoid the busiest roads in London.
Is there a possible terrorist threat.
Yes. 
Everyone, the person filming (me) and the people who will be in my video (the artists).
Don't go to London to ensure that everyone is going to be safe.
