Music video comparisons

Here is a music video that we believe will eventually look similar to ours. The shots featuring the band performing are the shots that we are most interested in as that will be what is featured in our video, and of particular interest is the visuals; e.g. how the lighting is restricted, the fast transitions, and the varied shots.

With reference to a previous post 'Test shots - Lighting and Colouring', the lighting shown in this video is very similar to what we would like to use in our own video. However, the colouring of the shots in this video is not similar to what we will possibly be using, and so I will continue looking for other videos which feature this trait.

The band members positions are also of importance, as we will be using a similar method in the way that the members of FEAR THE UNKNOWN are placed. (drummer at the back etc).



Here are three shots that we will be using in our video: The first shot is one that focuses on the guitar; the second focuses on the band as a whole; and the third is a mid-shot focusing on a guitarist.

  1. Have you explored what lighting is available at the THS drama studio? And whether there will be anyone there to operate it? This may influence your overall look.

  2. In the drama room where we will be filming, we believe that there will be restricted use of the lighting equipment. However, we were hoping to film in full light any way, and then change the lighting and look of the shots via Imovie.
