Colour scheme for music video

When editing our music video, we decided to greyscale our footage to make it have washed out, ghostly, lonely effects in order to emphasis the characters sadness we are trying to portray.



We also added a red effect for the overlays at the start of the music video to give the audience a vibrant colour to draw their attention in further. It also combined the colour scheme when Lauren is in dancing and the red overlay presents itself, to the next scene where the colour scheme in the forest is reds and oranges. Not only doe this combine the scenes but it also emphaises the autumnal season, and the sense of time passing.

Evaluation question 2

How effective is the combination of your media product and ancillary text? This question requires me to talk about my music video and ancillary text, then discuss how they compliment each other, and how certain things may clash, and have not been effective. I would then continue by explaining ways in which I could improve my ancillary text to compliment my media more and make it more effective.  Ways in which I could present this is: Interview with director Interview with audience, asking what they think about conventions we used Video of me discussing the forms and conventions

All I Ask- Adele coreography

This music Video incorporates a lot of contemporary dance between a man and woman. Their moves and actions are emotive and carry a lot of power as their movements fit with the music perfectly, emphasising the songs heartbreaking theme, connecting the viewer further to the songs message. This music video covers similar messages we want to depict in our media product for 'lost without you'. We are thinking about taking similar movements they use, and they way in which speed for certain moves are have a big impact, for example the slow movements are more emphasised, making them much more effective. Unfortunately we are not able to a find a man to dance with Lauren, but we do not think this is a major issue as this just reinforces the fact she has been abandoned and is isolated.

Nature Shots

Today I filmed some shots, purely of tree branches and the sky as the background. The sky was bright blue but was a little overcast, which was perfect as it gave a really good textured and layered appearance. As the song is about her boyfriend leaving her to go travelling, the trees and sky symbolise his  freedom and him leaving. We are planning to over lay this footage with Lauren dancing, therefore her dancing on her own, on top of the open sky emphasises her loneliness and his abandonment. This will give the audience a deep, textured visual, which will also intensify their emotions towards the dancers sadness and isolation.
