Set Design

My group drew our first design for our set both before and after being wrecked. We did both a birds eye and front-on view of both sets to get two different angles of what it would look like, and also to visualise the set better. There may be a possibility of us adding another set into our video, however we have not decided on that yet. 

This first set above is our pre- wrecked set. We really wanted to go for a plastic looking barbie set that looks basically like a bedroom from a Dollhouse, which relates to the name of the song. The majority of the furniture is a shade of pink for example the rug, wallpaper, pillows, duvet cover, flowers, and the rest is white like the bed frame, wardrobe, vanity and picture frames. 

The picture above this text is the destroyed set. It will have graffiti on the wall, wonky picture frames, make up on the floor, lipstick on the vanity mirror, pillows and cushions and teddy bears ripped with stuffing on the floor and clothes strewn everywhere etc... This is to symbolise the band rebelling the traditional stereotypes of what a girl should be. 

The reason we need to draw the set out is because it is easier to communicate to our teachers what we want our video to look like and which parts they think will work/ don't work. It is also important to show them our set design to see if it is in fact doable and is a good reference for what we want when consulting the set team, who supply the furniture we may need for our videos. That is also why we need a visual set list, as it shows what kind of objects we are looking for, and the set designers will try and get us something that looks as close to that design as possible. Therefore my group made a list of all props and set needed and put a picture next to each one. We created one for each set (pre destroyed and destroyed)
