Storyboard is an industry standard series of panels or rough sketches which outline the sequence of the scenes, action, sound etc. for the promotional audiovisual product.
After creating my script I began to draw a storyboard as this now became clear how my music video was going to look. First series of pictures shows the first storyboard. This storyboard was done at the early beginning of the planning work and doesn't reflect the music video perfectly as we had to reject some ideas i.e. using taxi when filming. (this was rejected because of lack of finance)
So on the storyboard each picture shows one particular scene or a shot. Under each picture there is a description of what is happening in this scene.

After some more planning was done we finally came up with a final storyboard that clearly reflects our music video. The first line in it shows the duration of the shot. The second line describes the action that happens in the scene and the third one tells about the sound in the shot.
Mise-en-scène is an expression used to describe the design aspects of a theatre or film production, which essentially means "visual theme" or "telling a story"—both in visually artful ways through storyboarding, cinematography and stage design, and in poetically artful ways through direction. Mise-en-scène has been called film criticism's "grand undefined term"
In our film we are going to have quite a few Mise-en-scènes. These include backseat of a taxi, middle of the football field, streets of Canterbury, top of the hill and others.
Backseat of the taxi
The cameraman is going to sit on the front seat when our main hero will sit on the back one. Cameraman will fix the camera and film the main hero in different positions.
The main character will seat alone or with his friend. We are going to do series of shots where he is rapping in the camera or just sitting and looking in the window. There is going to be a scene where the main character quits the taxi, shuts the door and joins his friends walking down the street.
Middle of the football field
We are planning to shot our main hero in different angles in the centre of the football field. This will include long shot, medium close-up, low angle, over the shoulder shot and others.
As a football field is a big open space, we think it will look extremely good in night time as well as at daytime. That gives as an opportunity to have lots of interesting shots.
Streets of Canterbury
This type of place is quite useful in these type of video, because there is usually a lot of people there. We need a crowded place to show an example of life in a small city. In our video a group of friends will walk down streets of Canterbury and chat, laugh etc.
