Initial Ideas & Mood Board
Initial Ideas Mind Map
Our chosen band within our group
is going to be a drum and bass
artists so we can explore different
shots and cutting rates throughout
the video that we will be shooting.
We have decided that this band
will be Pendulum as they are
highly recognised throughout the
UK and the rest of the world and
have the right sound and beat for
us to explore.
For the genre of our video we
are considering a horror
aspect and tension through
the build up to the drop and
climax of the song. This
tension will be created with
low cutting rates and freeze
frames used within the video.
Also we will use a lack of
focus and shaky cam to
create a panicked and
compacted feel to the
climaxing elements of the
video with a slowing down
towards the end.
Within the video we are
wanting to use characters to
represent the singer and also
to represent a separate identity
within the video aside from the
lyrical aspects. We are still
deciding on whether we will
feature males or females or
both within the video and which
would be better suited which
we will decide as we explore
our song choices.
Our setting for our video
we have decided will be
around a woodland area
of in a meadow in a rural
location. This will go well
with the wildness of the
bands songs that feature
quite a surreal element so
we would like as little
distractions as possible to
the music and the shots
we will produce.
Our options for song
choices are currently
between:
Pendulum – Witchcraft
Pendulum – Watercolour
Pendulum - Crush
We will use limited props
within our music video as we
want the setting and the
edits we put into the video to
be the main focus along with
the composition involved in
the music video.
We are looking at masking
our characters within the
video or using some special
make up on them to create
the theme to the video.
