27- Final ideas for music video

FINAL IDEAS FOR MUSIC VIDEO

 

A lot of our inspiration for our video came from former music videos and our knowledge of house music and the 'Rave / Club' scene which is very popular in London and one of the main scenes in which house music gained its status from, since it is still a very new genre of music, (which means we could experiment with the theme of the music video slightly more).

 

CAMERA-WORK / MISE EN SCENE 

we have taken inspiration of the original video when it comes to mise en scene and camerawork, with the use of establishing city skyline shots and panning shots of our skyline setting which we plan to use in our video.  (explained in detail in post #17)

 

CAMERA-WORK / MOVEMENT

We also gained some inspiration off of the 'Hideaway' music video by house/pop music artist Kiesza. In the first Gif we see a tracking shot of the artists whilst she is performing the song, same with the shot below, since our artist is the narrator and performer of the song we plan to use tracking shots of the artists walking and singing the song at the same time. 

 

This gif is from the music video 'Studio' By Schoolboy Q, he is not a house artist however this mise en scene works well with the 'house' theme and works hand in hand with the use of panning (shown in the first gif). We will be using a similar setting to this in our actual music video.

 

 

 EDITING

 

We plan to use this 'reverse' edit, shown in the gifs above, in our original music video, as it matches one of our lyrics, we will specifically be using it in the same way it is shown in the last gif, of the artist reverse walking backwards to go with the lyric 'back back back'.
