This is a lyric sheet that my group used to discuss our vision for each verse.
For this task, we started with a paper of the lyrics provided by our teacher where we discussed the general idea/narrative we wanted. Here are some of our notes from when we did this during classtime.
However, we had a limit of 10-20minutes to discuss this during our classtime thus we decided to continue this at home through canva. I had been the one to write down all our ideas, give them some more detailed visuals and transferred them to canva whiteboard. This way we could all share ideas and comment on each other's idea.

Although there might be slight changes and features (videos, clear images, comments and their reply) that can only be seen in the embedded link, I also included our whiteboard in the form of images.
Aurel had commented some great questions and ideas to add on the whiteboard, however most our discussions were done within our groupchat on Whatsapp. I felt as though we were able to expand a little bit more on our idea. Not only will it make our music video stand out, but also ensure our vision is aligning as a group.
Because of this discussion, we were more inclined to ask our teacher for feedback on the current storyline. He informed us on his concern over how well we would be able to communicate the different flashbacks/timestamps that were happening since we did not have access to actors of different ages, which prompted him to suggest a different approach of one flashback and a continous display of the artist's journey through her career from the mother's camera perspective. We, as a group, all agreed to this new narrative as it felt as though our message could be delivered more clearly and readjusted our previous planning to fit towards it.
Reflection: This task was a good way of agreeing and compromising on all our ideas into one. Similarly to the moodboard, we were able to discuss our ideas and combine them to one with this task which ended up aiding in the storyboard process since I had a clear vision on each verse. Other than that, I thought doing this task was very helpful in allowing my group to connect more as we begun developing ideas together.
Problems: Tweaking our narrative in such short notice means we need to have it done so we can move on to the production phase. We aim to complete this before December
Solution: I'll be approaching my group to discuss the change once more and splitting the task between all of us. Ideally we get the new lyric sheet done before our semester break to be able to approach our teacher once more and get his approval.
