Change of Ideas.

After much thought about what sort of video i would like to do i have decided to go for a video of mainly live shots and a very different start and end to the Video. The ideas of the band members acting was not possible due the fact that the lighting, costumes and other influences would not make the video seem proffesional and would have a poor quality if not done in a studio, however the sort of video i have chosen to do i possible with the equipment i have and the levels of acting required by the band stretch to closing their eyes and placing in earphones. Other than that its just live shots of the band playing and doing what they normally do. A post of the new story board shall be posted soon.

music videos

After watching roughly 300 videos in the past 4 weeks in every single media studies lesson..... I STILL LOVE MUSIC!! lol

Ideas for music video

However these are only the first set of ideas that i have had, I am still keen on the idea of live and band shots only

Foo Fighters Music Videos

After watching many videos i feel i shall be resembling some of the videos that have been created by the foo fighters. This is mainly to the story in which the videos normal consist of and then live shots of the band playing. The videos in which the foo fighters create often have a sense of humour and strangness about them such as "Learn to Fly" and " Everlong". In these 2 videos live shots of the band playing and a main story line is both achieved. In these to videos the band members can normally be seen acting out various roles which the story shows. Such as the "Learn to Fly" video all the main characters are acted out by Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel and Taylor Hawkins, with a cameo role of Jack Black and Kyle Gass at the start stashing some sort of controlled substance.
When creating my video i intend to use the band members in some of the acting seens, and in the other shots use quick cuts of the band playing. By acting out the lyrics of a song the lyrics are given more of a meaning and can be shown by the directors point of view which in this case shall be me.
