R+P Post 5: The kind of video I would like to make

After some research with my group, we found some music videos that we thought had similar ideas and aesthetics to the ones we would like to create.

SIA - 'YOU'VE CHANGED'


Our group really liked the use of cardboard props used to convey the story of this video. We thought that the handmade aesthetic of this video was an entertaining and visually interesting idea, especially as all the effects - of the selection on the main menu, and of the 'sing-along' - were done practically instead of in post production. We decided that we wanted to make homemade scenery and props for our own music video.

SONS OF PITCHES - 'MMMBOP (in 10 Genres)'


Our group enjoyed this video for it's comedic visual change in style to create references for the audience to decipher. We thought the idea of the audience being challenged throughout the video, in this case to discover what the '10 genres' being referenced are, very helpful, and it taught us that one way to keep an audience member interested throughout a three minute music video is to consistently change the set up and add intertextual references to keep them on their toes.

I FIGHT DRAGONS - SAVE WORLD GET GIRL


As well as having similar homemade scenery to the Sia video, our group liked this music video because of it's homage to old sci-fi movies, i.e Star Trek. We wanted to replicate what this music video did with it's intertextual references, entertaining the audience by tapping into their nostalgia and adding visual references, such as the old Star Trek uniforms and unconvincing laser battles with prop aliens. We thought this added a comedic edge to the music video, which was definitely the tone we were looking for. 

MEGHAN TRAINOR - 'ALL ABOUT THAT BASS'


Our group were keen to have a pastel colour palate for our music video, and this music video had a lot of the colours we were looking to replicate. The pale, pastel pink in the background was one that we want to have as the backdrop for any band shots we will have as it is simple yet pleasing to the eye, allowing the action of the performers to take centre stage.
