Costume

In attempt to create the most authentic costume possible, we have been looking at second hand masonic aprons, gloves and sashes online.

Animatic

By cropping and putting the storyboard into final cut pro, we created this animatic. We then applied the song alongside the pictures to create an idea of what our video will look like.

Storyboard

By drawing each scene, we began for the first time to get down our ideas, visually, down on paper. It helped us to realise the practical issues and come to solutions, swell as trigger some new ideas.
