SA - Development/Change of Idea

Between us we have decided that doing a music video with a clear storyline isn't the best option for our song, and after seeing the video for 'Red Sign' by Kap Bambino, I was inspired by the slow motion effects and the seeming randomness of the video.
  • I think for our video we should try and make it visually appealing and not focus heavily on a mainstream story with generic boys and girls together etc.
  • I think our group can use our creative sides to make a video that is considered art, and not so much as an advert due to the fact that the song doesn't have any band to promote as it is a remix of a song that is already successful.
  • Our ideas for the video now are that we will have a few people and us doing quite random things, like jumping and running, and then we will use different depth of fields, time lapse, slow motion, time sped up and editing techniques that match the beat of the song.
  • We all agree that this is a better idea than trying to make up a story to our video to follow the song.
  • This also means that we have no limits in terms of locations and actions, we can do very abstract and surreal things, meaning the video can stand up to repeatability as there will be lots of things going on.

  1. We need to do something like this. Visually it was really good I thought. Although I wouldn't mind betting it was done in a studio of some sort.
