Planning - Test Shots!
Test Shots
We created three different test shots. We intend to incorporate these kind of test shots in our music videos as well as different ones to include a large variety and show that we have a clean understanding of camera work. The test shots are slightly short because we just wanted to focus on the way the camera is going to focus on the artist. Enjoy the test shots!
Planning - Making Test Shots
Making Test Shots
We decided that it would be a good idea to make some test shots because we need to have a rough idea of how we are going to film all the different shots we need on the actual day. We practised recording techniques such as tracking the main character and also following the rule of not having the camera still when filming for a music video. As you will see in the following videos, you'll be able to understand what kind of shots we are focusing on and how we are practising them. Hopefully, we intend to use these and hope that the test shots come out as we want them to. Test shots in the making...

Planning - Interviewing the New Artist, Molly Clift!
Interviewing Molly Clift!
We decided to set up an interview where we are pretending that me (David) and Sophie are reporters interviewing Molly Clift, as she is a new artist and her music is supposedly starting to become more popular. Here is the interview... Enjoy!
Planning - Synergy
Synergy is a huge part of the distribution of our Music Video, as we aim to include memorable images to accentuate this.
BOKEH LIGHTS:
Bokeh LIghts are mainly featured within videos that focus on the night life, this is paramount for our music video as it abides by our genre of music- House. Furthermore, we aim to follow Goodwin's theory of Amplification, we aim to amplify the theme of lighting as it will be evident in our video due to our city based locations - Southbank and Spitalfields. I think this will be effective as we will possibly use it as one of our basetracks in our video. This recurring motif will possibly be featured on our ancillary project (CD cover) as a back ground.
WIND EFFECTS:
Our other image that we will possibly use for Synergy would be an silhouette of the artist which will express the brand image; focusing on her as an artist as opposed to as an aspirational person. Although we aim to target an audience of aspirers, we tend to feel that it would seem that our srtist would have to appear in designer clothing, making their audience want what they have and the prestigious lifestyle they may follow. However, we have chosen clothing items from well-known high street stores like River Island, Topshop and Office.
I could not seem to find a relaistic silouhetted image of curly hair blowing in the wind, so instead i used a colour compromise of somebody with ginger hair. However, against the Bokeh light background it would be difficult to intergrate other colours, so a shadowed version would apper better.
