Inspiration for our Music Video

I've watched a number of music videos recently, all of which had aspects I could incorporate into my music video.

Countdown 
I really liked Beyonce's music video, 'Countdown', not only because dancing which I would like to use, but also the effective editing techniques. At points the screen was split into multiple sections, each of which had different colours and actions. I would really like to incorporate these elements into my music video. The audience Beyonce attracts through the brand she has created are similar to my target audience, therefore by incorporating the same editing techniques and style of her music video I will meet the demands of my target demographic.





Thats what I like
I began looking through current popular songs and Bruno Mars 'Thats what I like' was included in this. Initially looking at it I didn't find it very interesting, however I really liked the animations in it and would therefore like to try and recreate something similar.





Four, Five seconds
Unlike some of the other music videos I looked at, this one was a lot more simple. However I would really like to use the close up shots and black and white colour grading used in the video. I also really liked how the music video began with a black silhouette of Rihanna singing, which I would like to recreate.




What now
Both Lauren and I really liked this song so we would therefore like to use some of the editing effects used in it. For example the layering of the images which looked really visually effective and we would therefore like to create something similar in our music video.

Final Music Video

Below is my final music video:

Magazine Advert options

Lauren and I created 2 different magazine adverts as part of our preliminary task. We used the online website 'canva'. This website was really useful as it allowed us to choose from a range of different templates, which we could then edit and adapt to create something in keeping with out music video. We created two to give us options and a larger range of choice. However after receiving audience feed back we were told one was too plain and simple and the other ones writing almost ruined the image. Therefore we will try and create another with similar ideas however also take on board our audience feedback.

Risk assessment

To ensure when Lauren and I film our music video, it goes well without any injuries or accidents we decided to create a risk assessment. By doing this we are now prepared for any risks that may come and can effectively deal with.
