VIDEOS THAT INFLUENCED OUR FINAL PLAN…

Throughout this project me and my group have looked at several music videos that could possibly inspire our one and that we could feed ideas from. We obviously didn't want to copy them fully but we wanted some inspiration to influence some really good ideas. Here's some of the videos I chose and some reasons as to why they inspired me...

MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS- OH NO! 

What I found was a really big influence in this for out video was the frequent use of pop art that she uses. As AlunaGeorge are quite a funky duo and make happy and bubbly music, me and my group agreed that pop art text would go hand in hand with our music video. 

Another feature of this video which I thought would inspire our music video is the vibrant colours that she uses for both the costume and setting. Much like the pop art, this reflects AlunaGeorge's character and type of music. 

RIZZLE KICKS- LOST GENERATION I thought that Rizzle Kicks Lost Generation

had a strong influence on the way in which I want our music video to be filmed technically, as oppose to the inspiration of setting and costume that the Marina and the Diamonds video. Although I'm not really a fan of Rizzle Kicks themselves, I like the editing that they use in this video. For example, I really like the jump cuts that they use, and they use them a lot throughout this video. I feel as though jump cuts are very important as they give it a very music video feel to it.

Thanks for watching!
