Ideas

Having examined and studied other music videos, we have started to draft our ideas for our music video.

We will try to use mise-en-scene to represent the progression in the music video. For example have the male actor wear a hoody with the hood up to show his mood; then when he realises he's made a mistake he takes the hood down. We were thinking that maybe the girl/alternative protagonist could also be wearing clothes which reflect her mood.

We would then incorporate the editing and use washed out colours when he has his hood up and then bring out the colour when his hood is down. Bringing out blues/greys/blacks in the video would also emphasise the emotion of the character; as our music video is about a teenage couple, we could bring out the the stereotypical moodiness and depression commonly associated with teenagers. This would appeal to our younger target audience (the 16-25 age bracket).

Again we will try to use the camera angle and position to show mood; by having the character in an isolated area with out people around, which is a conventional way of showing this emotion.

We have storyboarded unfortunately, we were unable to upload due to a technical error.
