As my music video is going to be conceptual, I have created a storyboard built up of visual ideas instead of the conventional storyboard which would have an exact order of all shot types and locations. These sort of storyboards are found with more narrative or performance style music videos.

I will also use pans and tilts for some of these ideas, such as when my actor is shot walking around alone, these will additionally be slow camera movements to reflect the slow chilled music.

I plan to use mostly place these ideas chronologically in my music video, starting more with decay and corrosion, and then leading to more positive ideas which express the form of energy and life. 

I had the idea to have my music video as if it is going through a day, starting from sunrise and ending at night. This is why the visual ideas which look better and more prominent in the dark, such as blurred lights or sped-up traffic shots, are nearer to the end of my music video, as it will end at dark.

Even though I aim to have these ideas chronologically, certain ideas will be repeated throughout the music video such as my actor walking alone exploring various places. 
Some of these ideas might repeat and in addition become quicker or more intense, such as adding more effects, speeding shots up faster or cutting to different shots quicker during the more heightened sections of the music track I am using.

This suits the chill out style as it is typical to have repetition of various visuals throughout chill out music videos as well as other very similar genre music videos.
