Inspiration for my Music Video
Lily Saunders
Inspiration
• In this powerpoint I will be looking at inspiration for my music video that I have found from a variety of sources.
Media Video: Daughter - Run
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAd6mk1nDfo• I think that for a media student’s work, this video is
incredible. The song links in well to the theme of heart break that my current song choice (Nicest Thing) also shares.
• I love the way that the video has been edited and the different camera shots as well as the mise en scene within it.
• The following slides show some of my favourite elements of the video.
Kaleidoscope Camera Effect
Lip Syncing in View in the Corner, Cleverly Placed in the Scene
Visual Interpretations of the Lyrics“But the Fire is Coming”
Low Down Filming Angles
Zoom Out of Close Up Shot
Close Up of Protagonists Reaction, Shows Her Feelings
Tracking Shot Shows them Looking at Each Other, They Appear to Look in Opposite Directions
Close Up Shot of Each of Their Eyes
Fan Made Video: Nicest Thing
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt3el-QY2i8
Sinead O’Connor – Nothing Compares 2U
• I like some of the elements of this music video such as the slow subtle fading transitions which worked well with the melancholy feel of the music.
• Also I think that the protagonist and artist in the song is a great actor, as she portrays her sadness through the clips of her wandering round in black clothes (as though she is grieving) and even her inability to look directly at the camera which suggests how devastated she is.
The Use of Fade Transitions Creates a Smooth Flowing Music Video
The Artist Seems to Struggle to Look Directly at the Camera Showing How She Has Lost All Confidence
The Use of Cross Dissolves
Following Protagonist Around, Shows Her Seemingly Deep in Depression
Reverting Back to the Protagonist We See That She is Crying
A Zed and Two Noughts
• http://petergreenaway.org.uk/zoo.htm• I liked the idea of using time lapses in my music
video and so was recommended to look at the artistic film “A Zed and Two Noughts”.
• The film is about two men’s fascination with decay over time. They actually create their own time lapses within the film of different things decomposing.

500 Days of Summer: Expectations Versus Reality Scene
• I love this use of the split screen as it gives us insight into what is on the protagonists mind as he wishes that he could be with the female character.
• It helps the audience to sympathise and empathise with him, and accompanied by the music it makes the scene very powerful and touching, especially the lyrics “No one’s got it all” as this is clearly about him.
This is the First Part of the Scene Where Expectations Exceed Reality
Here We Learn That He Wants This Girl’s Love By His Expectations
Again We Watch How He Wishes That He Could Get Closer to His Love Interest
Foo Fighters: Best of You
• Not only is this one of my favourite Foo Fighter’s songs, it is also an excellently made music video.• Throughout the video they use multiple clips of things, all which have an impact
on the watcher. The scenes are very emotive, making your heart race, stirring your emotions and they are also quite touching as well as shocking.• The scenes are often juxtaposed, the strong contrast between them has a
powerful effect on the viewer. These contrasts include love and hate, life and death, anger and peace, joy and sadness. Other themes included are beauty, youth, destruction and sex. There is also an element of reminiscence as many of the clips show young children and outdated cameras (due to low quality).• The extremity of all of these scenes links well to the lyrics, “is someone getting
the best of you”. They imply that feelings are still felt for someone who once was but is no longer their partner. The videos cause the viewer to experience the range of feelings held by the person who has been left. The older looking clips may be representative of his reflection of the past as he struggles to deal with the pain of no longer being with her.
