We have recently started filming and this is the photo of Claudia we took to ensure continuity throughout the parts of the music video where she has to look the same (bedroom scenes). Her hair and makeup will be similar throughout the whole of the music video; she is wearing extensions, bright red lipstick and liquid eyeliner to emphasise the 50's look.

This is a photo of the Mood Board we created when planning our coursework; it includes all of our inspirations such as Bugsy malone, which relates to the scene where Claudia is in a jazz style bar singing. Other inspirations were Audrey Hepburn and we have a photo of her on our mood board. Hepburn was an effective inspiration for us as she was an extremely popular 50's style icon therefore much of Kate Nash's style in the video will be influenced by Hepburn and 50's fashion. Our mood board shows all of our ideas regarding the music video, poster and advertisement and is effective as when filming we can look at it to encourage us in the kind of mood we want to evoke in our music video. For example, on the mood board we have a photo of a fairytale castle and Snow White and her Prince Charming to emphasise that Kate Nash really wants to find her Prince Charming and wants to have her happy idyllic ending. However, the castle on the mood board is surrounded by a grey background and this emphasises that Kate Nash does not have a happy ending in the music video therefore in the video we want to emphasise Kate Nash's bubbly character this is why we have pictures of rainbows and butterflies and we plan to emphasise Nash's character by her fashion sense in the video and the intentionally humorous spy scene; however the grey pictures in our mood board also show that there is a serious tone to the video when Kate Nash gets her heart broken and therefore we want to convey these devastated feelings at the party scene.
