Research and Planning - Actors

My partner and I have found 2 females that are prepared to star in our video. We have chosen these girls as they have a different hair colour that will create contrast between them and will allow the audience to differentiate the two. The male lead is still to be confirmed.

Research and Planning, A2 Video - The main idea

In our music video we would like to show the story of a confused guy that cannot decide between his two loved ones. The video will contain sections of a male lead being and enjoying time with the 2 girls, each seperately and the dubstep will contain fast flashes of images and videos of the couples and actors to represent the guy's confusion.

Research and Planning - Skrillex First Of The Year

I have looked at the videos that were shot for Skrillex singles

This video creates suspence from the start of the video by using a close up tilt upwards revealing the man with a sweet. The next shot of the man's back with a playground infront of him creates a stereotype of a paedophile. Skrillex use jump cut edits and reversing to match the dubstep beats of their songs, varying the speed. They also tend to have a narrative story line, a slow beginning speeding up and culminating towards the end.

Research and Planning - The chosen song

Their single does not have a video and exists only as a single.

 This remix is fast and will be challenging to do but me and my group mate would like to accept the chalenge that would require gaining new skills to produce a video.

Research and Planning - Permission

I have been searching for the appropriate artist and their songs n have found a song called 'Cinema' by Skrillex. I have asked their permission but have not yet had a reply.

final video

This is our finished music video that we produced. However we only had 2 lessons to work on it due to a lack of  organisation. This will be a lesson for the future to plan ahead of tike and get the right footage on time.

Music Research

I have found a website that contains different music and song genres by the yet undiscovered artists. In the websites terms and conditions it states that by signing up to this website all the musicians can choose a lince for their songs, one of which is a Creative commons Licence, which allows them to keep their copy right but gives other userd to use and distribute their work.

I shall investigate the website to get some ideas of what music genre i would like to work with next year.
