In this treatment for the song Heart by Lil tracy the slides in the treatment consist of different shots and the description of what should happen in each shot. It starts off with describing what the visuals should look like and that it must be a 'simple, cinematic music video. We then move onto a few shots of an outside, music studio and a shot of a human being. The next slide again consists of the action and visuals of what the shot should like and what it should consist of. This slide explains what each of the images in the previous slide are for. The following slide is another slide with images of Tracy, money and other people. The slide after that is once again a slide informing us what the pictures are about and what the shot should like. This continues until the end of the song, we get a slide with images from the shot and then a slide with an explanation of the images and the look of that specific shot. In my opinion, the thing that works well in this treatment is the detail and description after each slide with images, this is really effective and works well as it informs people of how they planned each shot to look like.
In this treatment for the song Sugar by Robin Schulz once again the slides consists of information of how the music video should look like and slides with pictures and descriptions of each shot. In this treatment we get a brief description of the main character and his life. We then get informed of what happens in the shot and each action that takes place. The next slide is images of the main character that portray how sad and boring his life actually is as it is him sitting alone in a chair sad. We then transition into slides that are full of pictures and text. The text is just full of information of what happens in the shot as well as again a short description of the character what he is doing. Images are all there to help with the description of the action and to give some sort of visualisation. We continue with these descriptions all the way through until the end of the song constantly getting lots of information regarding each shot and images to help portray the idea. In my opinion, the thing that makes this treatment really effective is the amount of detail and pictures. When it comes to detail, it goes into really small detail like describing what the character is like, as well as giving other small information that help build an image in the head. There is also a lot of pictures that furthermore help build and create an image in peoples heads of what they are planning on making the music video to look like.

In this treatment for the song Empty Space by James Arthur we get a really well and detailed out treatment for it. Each slide is unique and is filled with huge amounts of detail and information about each shot and information regarding the song and other things like the synopsis and a drawn storyboard. At the start, we are introduced with a synopsis of the story and the song and we learn a bit about the main character and about the song. The next few slides include the actual story, we get a nicely detailed description of each shot, location and action that will take place with pictures along side to ease the building of an image in our heads. Each photo is also extremely high quality and easy to tell what happens in it. After a few slides of information with extremely detailed text and pictures we get introduced to what looks like a hand drawn storyboard that gives us the same information as the previous slides but has slightly more infarction in some of the shots as it gives us exact information like the location in each shot, the lighting and a short but nicely detailed description of the detail. In my opinion, the best and most effective thing about this whole treatment is the amount of detail we are given, this helps everyone not only the viewers reading and looking and the treatment but also everyone else build a really good image in their head of what the music video should look like and as there is a lot of detail like the lighting action and location it is even easier to imagine what it should look like. Making a treatment that is this detailed will also help in the making of the actual music video as there will be a lot of detail and that is also something that is really good and effective in this treatment.
My top 3 tips when it comes to creating a successful treatment would be; add a lot of images, write a lot of detailed information regarding each shot, make everything clear and easy to understand. The reason why I think you should add a lot of images is that with images it is easier to then create yourself an image in your head of what it should look like and is also easier to recreate than just writing. the reason for having lot of detailed information about each shot is that it will make the job a lot easier when it comes to actually making the music video and it will also help with visualising wha the music video should and must look like. When it comes to why I think a treatment should be clear and easy to understand is that you want everyone to understand what your point is and make it easy to get your point across to others, main thing also is so that when it does come to the filming, you are not confused yourself about something in the treatment you might not understand and the same with others just incase they can't understand what you wrote and created. All of these tips in my opinion, will create an extremely good, detailed and easy to understand treatment that will also be successful and could create a successful music video.
