Storyboard Blog (Music Video)

We are going to begin our music video by starting exactly where the beat drops. We will be featuring two "divas" in the music video. We will place a zoom on the first shot to emphasize the beat dropping. In the next scene we will capture the diva in front of the mirror applying makeup. This will probably be a medium shot or a POV shot if we're able to pull it off. The next scene will be of one of the divas lip syncing sassily, while the camera does a pan up and down her body. This will give the audience a chance to see and take in the clothes and attitude of the diva. The next scene will switch back to her in the bathroom in front of the mirror. The camera will then follow her from the front as she walks out and sings at the same time. This will probably be a closeup shot. This type of shot/scene is definitely very Beyonce esque. The next scene is just very complimentary to the lyrics of the song. Beyonce will say, "she aint no diva, no, no, no." The diva will be lip syncing this and mocking the idea that "she" is a diva, with her fan in hand. The next clip will be the diva stepping out of the car while singing to the music. For the next scene we'll be shooting the diva crouching from a low angle so we'll really be close up. The next one will once again be in the  car and the diva will be flaunting her paper money. This of course will be play money but will definitely add to the general effect. The next two clips are just going to fill in space and will be pretty simple long shots. The first will be the diva dancing and the second is a hair flip in slow motion. The clip after that will add humor to the video. It will be a clip of the diva pushing away a bystander trying to watch her/be on her level as she gets into the car. This two person shot might be an over the shoulder. Next, we have a break in the music. We will add an extreme close up of the diva applying a thick layer of gloss on her lips. We also capture her walking in her heels, just like the Diva video that was released in 2009. We will next add an oblique shot of money being thrown on the diva to capture her luxurious lifestyle. Our last and final clip will be the diva throwing the money at the camera. Our transitions will include fade ins and fade outs, jump cuts, and iris' in and out.
