1950's opening shoot

We have started shooting our opening to the music video but we have shot it only a test footage and we plan to re-shoot it again after we have got all the major filming done. We wish to re shoot as there are shots we wish to change although the idea is staying the same.

This is the ideas that we had before the shoot -


We want the opening to show the female lead singer as a 1950's housewife who is tired of the same old boring lifestyle. We want her to seem to fit into her surroundings until the camera takes a closer look at her she will be wearing Doc Martins to show the element of a modern girl trapped as a housewife. 

We are filming in Katy's kitchen as it is less modern and we dressed the setting appropriately - 

This is an image of how we dressed the setting and we chose a darker colour scheme from the traditional 1950s. As many kitchens were either yellow or white, luckily the walls are white. But we chose the blue table cloth to show the male dominance in the situation. As well as the it clashing with the female's outfit, this is intentional. It shows the clash between the two people. As her partner is of an older generation.

For the opening we have picked up on the lyric 
"Your from the 70's but I'm a 90's bitch" 
We want the age gap to be clear. So we chose the 1950s look to make that clear, as there is a bigger change because it is an older time period.

Costume ideas - Housewife

Housewife (1950s Look) -
This costume needs to be quite stereotypical and fit the time period we are trying to portray. We wanted to make it as accurate as possible along with some tweeks to make it slightly more obvious that this is not the time period she belongs in.
