Mood Board

Here, we have created a mood board, taking a variety of screens from different music videos. From this, it is evident that close-ups are a commonly used shot, which will influence the camera composition for our filming. These images have been chosen, relating to our intial ideas for our music video. Not only will these help to influence our storyline but, prompt our choice of props and costume.

Looking back now having shot the majority of our music video, this mood board was incredibly influencitial for the complilation of our shots. We heavily followed the theme of reflection, representing the difference in personality of the female with excessive alcohol and drug consumption. Hence, the top left shot of the female has been re-created within our music video, representing the state of the girl the morning after her night of drug and alcohol abuse. This then leads me onto the shot below, of the man sniffig. This has been miniced by our female actress using the props of sugar and a rolled up £5 note to exemplify the snorting of cocaine. Furthermore, the top right image helped construct the apperance of our female character. Having applied dark,smudged make up to the eyes of the girl this suggested the female to malnourished and a physical wreck. Finally, exploring some of these music videos further such as 'A-Team' and 'Flashing Lights', this urged us to put a filter on our film. We purpose to use both the natural light and a black and white filter, depending on the contrast of different times of day. This could therefore, be used to illustrate the part and present tense or the dissimilarity in the characters mood or emotions.
