Pre-Production Update

We were stuck in the set design of the band performance today, we did not have particular setting for the four musicians, that was difficult to create good scenes. To tackle this problem, we looked for different elements that related to the song, and watched the rehearsal video again and again, tried to figure out what type of scenes could fit them the best and show their characteristics. As Phil suggested us, we googled images of abandoned basement, factory and underground in particular, and found many interesting  images as references:
 
The general features of these places are 
-dirty/dusty objects
-Destructed wall
-Dark
-Messy
-Empty space
Therefore, we have created a concept of the setting, which is relatively dark and broken down, abandoned.

Also, fish eye lens could change the visual and show a great effect of crazy vibe.
“Dead Prez—Hip Hop”




In terms of lighting, touch light from the bottom give a sense of mystery and terrifying which could link to the lyrics of the song
After then, Matt gave us an idea about political issue. We totally agreed and love the idea, so we are going to take it in account. He sketched the setting:
The poster wall is going to be like this:



There will be lighting effect of helicopter above their heads and touch lights of cops searching for them, which is very cool and completely fit with the idea of the music.
