The video

I am now going to brainstorm some ideas on what I can do in my video.

Editing
  • I am thinking of doing my video in black and white to fit into the grunge and gritty atmosphere of the video.
  • I may do fast paced editing in my film especially through the instrumental part

Mise en scene

  • For mis en scene, I have to make sure my music video looks the part and fits into the story line. I am having to make the setting look realistic as possible and make it look glamorous. I am choosing to have a stage like setting, some hallways and a dressing room style.
  • For my stars outfit, I am having to choose something glamorous yet something edgy. I am thinking of using a fur coat and something with sequins on, prehaps some sequin hotpants as the sequins will reflect in the light and stand out in the black and white light. I will also need some large sunglasses for my star to hide behind.
  • I am going to do my lighting rather bright and highlighted on my main actress to show that the star is being blinded from the lights.

Cinematography

  • I am going to have my camera shots used closly on my star as she is singing and as she is walking through the corridoors and maybe use a low angle shot before she goes into her dressing room and the breakdown begins to show that she appears to have dominance over the public but infact she doesnt.
