Mise-en-scene - Costume, Make-up, Location, Props and Lighting

Location:


  • Hessle Foreshore 


Lighting:

Costumes:

Make-up:

Props:
  • Selfie Stick

for my idea of an abstract video and after researching existing music video I have purchased this selfie stick. It will not be seen in the actual video but will help when recording and will look really good. The stick allows the main artist, who is going to be in my video, to record themselves from a high angle. Like done here by Beyonce;  







Video Techniques and Influences

Initial Ideas


What I like about this Nicole Scherzinge video that is the location and the fact that there is no narrative is the idea that I have for my video. I am want an abstract video as the lyric have a sense of being 'care free' and want to portray that in the video.

 
This second video is also similar with no narrative and just a simple feel to it, and this is what im wanting to do with my piece.

Although this video is slightly different to the other two above, it has parts that I vision to be in my video. Again, there isn't a strong narrative to it and it is mostly her singing the lyrics to the camera. What I like most about this video and what I imagine myself to be doing is the edit they have used in-between her lip sink shots such as the sped up sky shots and water shots.



This Pixie Lott track really follow the same type of path that my music video is going to take. I really like the long opening sequence which my song also allows and the different type of edit she has put onto the shots, such as the old fashioned edit, and is what I imagined for my own video.
