Prelim feedback

TEACHERS FEEDBACK    WWW:  The song comes across as incredibly heartfelt and passionate which aligns with the initial sombre image of the unsure girl in bed struggling to bring herself to join her friends. You’ve taken a range of shots from varying angles and spread them effectively, creating quite a happy tonal shift from the beginning. Your use of the perspective shot in the beginning gives an interesting point of view to the beginning of your video which I believe a viewer can align with. Next Steps:  Whilst I believe the song is a powerful choice, consider the lack of pace change or uplifting tone which would match with the clips used throughout most of the video. The song continues to sound quite sad, whilst the clips reflect an uplifting and happy tone. Make your protagonist far more obvious. Because of the filters and large group shots it becomes difficult to recognise who the outright protagonist is of the video: use your ensemble cast to build this protagoni...

Real statement of Intent

My song for my music video is 'Tal Vez' by Gabriela Bee. In the video there will be a girl struggling with her mental health and all her friends come along to make her feel happy again. The message I want to send my audience is to always be kind as you never know what strangers are going through.   My video will include people of different backgrounds to represent different races to make it as inclusive as possible, there will be young teenagers, mostly girls. There will be stereotypes that are reinforced such as girls comforting girls this will support the stereotype of girls being gentler and more loving than boys. My target audience will be young adults because they will resonate with the girl struggling at the beginning.   In this video I will be using different camera shots like close ups to create a narrative at the beginning which will develop through the use of wide shots when this girl is with friends, over the shoulder and lastly a medium shot to just focus o...

 Statement of intent :  I plan to make a 40 second video about helping people with their mental health. At the start of the video its a girl is depressed she feels left out and really upset with a sad tone in the background to create this negative mood. This will be filmed outside of school at a house in the bedroom and the character is just wearing normal teen clothes. She is laying on the bed really sad then she gets a message from this friend to hang out   .  In the middle of video they are out and the friends asks if she was okay and if they can help. So then she starts hanging out them and she feels way better about herself. She gets her confidence back and defends herself when her old friends try to confront her. Her mental health gets way better. At the last few seconds of the video the background music has gone from sad to a happy and joyful tone showing she is happy now.  2) SCRIPT  -Girl in the bedroom laying down.  -She takes her phone ...

summer project task

 researching music videos:  1)  Music video 1:  Marshmello x YUNGBLUD x blackbear - Tongue Tied How is  narrative  used in this music video to engage the audience? I think Propps character theory is used here as the police are the villain as they are silencing people and youngbuld and the others are more like helpers and trying to help their people to not be harmed and blackbear and the girl are hero as they save youngblud from the police and save their community.  2) Music video 2: Years & Years - I Wish I Knew How is   camerawork  and   mise-en-scene   used in this video? Use CLAMPS to remember the different aspects of mise-en-scene. At the start of the video the the first shot is a medium shot and just focusing on one person to really see the expressions and how the person is feeling through out this video. Then it slowly backs up to a wide shot to see of more whats going on and at like the end it different shot together in l...
