production diary

26/06/17- This day we researched songs that would be simple but challenging for us.

27/06/17- We picked the song the Oasis- live forever. This song would be a challenge for us editing wise. We started also writing the production diary and a prop list.

28/06/17- Today we completed the prop list and started to screen grab for the 40 seconds we are doing of the music video.

29/06/17- Today we started to film our music video.

no rest dry the river

We were asked to listen to this song and write ideas of what we think the music video would be like. These are some of the ideas:
can imagine being set on a cliff or field with loads of wind blowing. There could also be clips of a couple together or arguing.
day in girls shoes to show her life after a break up.
woodland area- one of couple walking through woods collapses and dies, whilst clips of band playing in woodland area.
beach- showing happy memories of couple.

When we was showed the music video we saw that

three music videos

what music means to me

What music means to me from faith Teader

carol vernallis theory

----This theory has 4 key concepts:

 1) narrative- suggests that the video is a visual response to the narrative, as in whatever is happening visually reflects the lyrics in the song.

Example:

2) editing-suggests that the convention of music editing is the video that may disrupt or break the conventions of continuing editing. The editing may become visible, bought to the foreground.

Example:  jump cuts,breaks of the 30 degree rule.

3) camera movements/framing- establishing shots are one of the key features of a music video.

Example: close up shots, master shots

4) diegesis- is the setting of the music video.

Example:


song- unforgettable- by  French Montana has 154 different camera shots

Andrew Goodwins- music video theory

---His theory is explained by 6 different conventions.

1) Relationship between the lyrics and the visuals, which illustrate, amplify or contradict the lyrics.

example: Jessie J- price tag- says "aint about the money" - she is then seen with money.

2) Thought beats: seeing the sounds (between music and visuals, which illustrate, amplify, or contradict the music)

example:

3) Genre related style and iconography present.

example:

4) Multiple close-ups of the main artist or vocalist: the creation of a star image to promote a recognisable brand image.

example:

5) Voyeurism often plays a major part,especially in relation to females.

example:

6) Inter textual references to other media texts may be present, especially in humorous videos.

examples:
