My Remake

Cast/Props/Location

As there only appears to be one girl in the music video I have chosen to recreate, I will use Sophie to be in it. She will wear a hooded coat, similar to the girl in the video and we will use a similar location that appears in the video. We will film in our local park, with a field and a bench in sight.

 Pan up from girl on the bed to girl standing over.

My Chosen Video

The music video which I am going to recreate is going to be:

'The A Team' by Ed Sheeran.




I am going to remake the first 60 seconds of this video. I will use a high definition camera so that I get the best quality and also use the same black and white effect that is used in this video.

Genre Of Music Video

I am thinking of recreating a simple, meaningful music video that represents the song lyrics. The genre I am thinking of is pop/acoustic music.

Artists associated with this genre include:

Ed Sheeran
