further ideas

After viewing our rough video cut and considering our ideas, we have decided to change some of our original ideas. We have decided to film most of the video in green screen and, depending on how it looks, re-film the whole song on a different location to edit clips from each of the filming sessions together.
some ideas that we have are to place boxes on our heads and continue dance routines.
we also want to film people on spacehoppers and speed up the footage. also dressed up people running around could look good if eddited correctly.
we have thought about the style of bright costumes to use and the dance routines we will use during the filming.

animatics feedback

After the rest of the class viewed our animations video, they responded with encouragement and criticism which we found very helpful with furthering our ideas for the music video.
Some of the positive feedback that we got was included-
it shows typical qualities of a dance video
it sounds as though it will be funny
the structure of the video is clear

we were also warned by the rest of the class that-
we will need to edit the video fast paced so that it will go with the video
if we used the same idea throughout the video it may get boring
it is difficult to make people deliberately dance and it may look fake

We have taken this feedback into consideration and will apply it to how we shoot the footage and edit it.

Band image research

In order for us to get a clearer inspiration to how our song might be presented. We looked at a number of pictures and music videos and analysed how the artist portrays herself and the music.










In her photoshoots we noticed she wore alot of bright clothing and appeared to present a slight multicultural presence. A theme which is also held strong with her music videos

This image is also reflected greatly within the lyrics and sound of her music.
