Filming Day 5

On the 8th October 2017 Ceri and I completed another filming session with this time just our dancers. Gaining from what we tried in Filming Day 4 Ceri and I continued to alter the lights when we felt necessary and use the dolly (tripod on wheels) to continue filming. Ceri and I were more wary of filming the dancers as we knew this could be more difficult and possibly create more problems than filming our artist.

The filming session was successful, Ceri and I worked through any problems we encountered and filmed shots we were happy with. We did not change any aspect of the dancers dress or makeup as we were happy with the styling originally, as it fits the genre and feel of the song. Similar to when filming our artist we filmed a lot of a shots a couple of times, altering position and lighting each time to create the best shots we could. Operating the dolly was also developed during this session as we tried different methods of using this to create the best shots. This also allowed us to meet our draft feedback of shooting better shots of the dancers, that follow the dancers, are tighter shots and include more movement within the video.

Overall we are very happy with the footage we gained from this shoot and will continue to use the same methods for our final day of filming.

Pop Taylor Swifts music video to her 2014 pop song "Blank Space" follows the conventions of telling a story, so a narrative music video. As with most pop music videos this story is centered around love romance, with there being numerous costume and setting changes throughout the video. The female is portrayed to be very feminine with perfect make-up and hair and often dressed in dressed and lighter colours. The video is presented to the audience through the viewpoint of Taylor/character and links to the theme of the song. For my own music video I will take inspiration from the way a narrative style as been used, as I feel this is very effective in conveying and relating the song and the narrative this brings to audiences. As a narrative this keeps audiences engaged and interested until the end of the video.

Twitter Feeds

Ceri and I decided to create Twitter pages for both our artist, Freya Tamsin, who will be starring in the music video as our main singer and a page for our dance duet, Bows. We have decided to create Twitter pages for both our singer and dancers, as they are both play an equally important role within our current video plan. By creating Twitter pages we are able to make our artist, dancers and music video more realistic. In today's modern culture many people within the music industry have their own Twitter feeds, allowing them to have a more interactive relationship with their audiences. Twitter is also a very common way that artists release information about their upcoming work, as this will reach very wide audiences. Within "Freya's" Twitter page we have used a photo of her as her the icon photo and then a photo of a crowd at at concert for header. This would clearly demonstrate to audiences that this Twitter page is for an music artist; the photo we have used for ...
