Music Video - Planning

My group and I decided to choose the song 'Lloyds TSB Dubstep Remix'. As this is a song we both agreed on and fits the criteria to the style of music video we wanted to do.


The Song

Our inspiration which influenced us to chose the style of video was The Prodigy's music video of 'Smack My Bitch UP' that involved a full first person view of someone having a night out and seeing a personal view to there journey of the night. Plus with the use of blur and colour disorientation to add a trippy/weird element to the video. In addition to this, the show 'The Peep Show' also uses a first person style through out the sit com. Were you can hear the mind of the individual and all of there fought running through their head to add a personal element to it and feel as you are the person.

For our music video we wanted to use the 'first person' style to our video. So the audience can have a person insight to the character and experience everything which they are going through. Along with this we plan to add blur effects to add to give the image of there state of mind and scenario there in. Plus to edit the use of colour, by changing certain colours and mixing the image up to create something different and to give the audience a totally new journey/experience.

Our main idea to the video will link to 'Smack My Bitch Up' and follow the kind of story and method of their video. 'Smack My Bitch Up' video involved a first person camera 'as the character' following them from when they prepare for a night out till the morning. Our video will follow a character and follow there day to day life or night out. Giving us a chance to play around with there experience and to be completely different to what the audience believe is going to happen. This will mainly be set in Brighton however may change through-out the video. The song is quite repetitive and gets faster through the song and changes beat continuously. By this we can create a very unorthodox and abstract experience for the audience and the character. Making an 'Alice and Wonderland' kind of sensation with an 'anything can happen' experience to it. However this will be more real and almost feel like a normal night out/day for the character and the audience.

Role with in the video - My role for the music video will be shared with my partner in my group. Meaning we will share the challenge to make the video and everything involved to make it. To designing, creating, planning, filming, editing and finalizing. We've both agreed to share responsibility for the video and believe this is the best way to do so. Also were both going to act in the video and organize it together. So as a joint effort we will complete the whole process to make our music video to the best of our abilities.
