Music video previews

We have created three previews for our artist which have been used on our website to promote the music video. Two of the previews come from shots that were not used in the music video and show the artist acting casually, the other shows a part of the music video during post production which was later modified.

Artist - Bio

"At a young age I was influenced heavily by the music scene in Seattle and found a love for music. We went to watch Nirvana in concerts a couple of times in an intimate live performance with my dad I loved it and their music had a big influence on me throughout my life. Another big Musical influence on me whilst I lived in Seattle was the electric tea Garden which was a very underground café located on the outer edge of Capitol Hill's bustling bar strip of Pike Street. I went to this later during more of my later teenage years and I and my buddies became regular goers. This is where I first heard all different types of electronic music like techno, House. And this is where I found a love for electronic and knew that this is what I wanted to do. During my late teens I had to decide whether to move to London with my parents or stay and try to make a name for myself in Seattle. I decided to go to London. Having made a few songs in Seattle once I got to London I gave samples of my music out and by 20 the record label HYPERDUB contacted me and the rest is history."

Costume idea

This is the costume that our artist will be wearing this is because we wanted our artist to reflect the electro-pop artists general dress code. So we went for the ''Smart Casual'' dress code with a buttoned up shirt and slim jeans.

Techniques

Close-up- The shot is filmed closely to a person or object.This can show a face to see expression or illuminate the importance of an object.
Mid shot- This shot is filmed further than the close-up, it generally shows the upper half of a person. This can show more of the person and more of what they are wearing to give an idea of what the person is like.
long shot- This shot is filmed from a distance and generally shows a multiple people. this can demonstrate body language and interaction.
Extreme long shot- This shot if filmed from such a distance that it can contain whole buildings, the setting or environment. This can be used to show the surroundings and establish the scene of the video.

Examples from this video

In this particular music video all the close-ups were used to show the facial expressions of the main male character or the main female character. During the beach scenes there are lots of close-up focusing in the mans face to show how stressed he is since he has just washed up onto a beach. One example of where this is used is when you see the mans face covered in sand at 0.30. Other close-ups are used within the flash backs where they shows the relationships of the two characters.

The mid shots used in this are used to explain what is happening in the in the narrative. These kind of shots are perfect for this because you are able to fit a lot in a these shots but its not to far back that the audience cannot not see any movement or facial expressions. One example of this is at 0.47 where the main character is drinking out of a coconut because he has been stranded on an island and is trying to survive.

In a music video long shots can be used to show a group of people (normally dancing). This can get the audience attention because normally dance routines are eye catchy. The long shots in this music video are used to show the man and the situation he is in at that particular instance. e.g. at one point there is a long shot of the man lying down in the sand where you are able to see his entire body. This tells the audience that he has been washed up onto the beach and is now stranded. Long shot are also used to display the relationship of the man and the woman. It seems that more long shots are used when the man and woman are angry at each other. This can be linked to how their relationship is falling apart.

The use of extreme long shots are used a lot in this music video. An extreme long shot is normally used to show the setting of the video. A long shot in music video can be used as a transition from scene to scene. e.g in this music video you can see the man walking on the beach then a long shot of the sea appears, after this it cuts back to the man trying to get a coconut out of a tree. In this example a long shot was used to speed up the course of time because the only information the audience need are key parts.
