This animatic follows the story that we wish to do in our music video. We made sure that the timing was all accurate and the shots go with the beat of the music. We believe that this is as accurate as it can be although something we would improve would be the images because sometimes they lack detail. We will be relating back to our animati when filming to keep on track and to know what we have filmed and what we need to film.

Permission for Track
We decided to email the band Jet in order to make sure that we were allowed to use their track. We decided to ask them in a formal approach if we can use their song 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' in our music video for our project. As it is an educational purpose, we believe that Jet will have no problem letting us use their song.
Music Video Ideas
Our ideas sheet is a group effort which gave us a good brainstorming session to really think about what genre, and style we should have .

Band Posters
This is an old poster of Tegan and Sara (right side) when they were touring the 'Con' a successful album back in 2004. It follows the theme of the album cover as an old paper back story. Due to the sketches you can imagine the band being quite 'Indie' and unusual and the plain simplicity represents a slightly acoustic sounding band.
The poster to the left of this is the latest poster released by the band i 2010, They keep their names yet their faces are less prominent due to the fact that their fans will automatically recognize their names and their band. You can see that the band has matured ad become more sleek and modern because the poster is more professional.
