Evaluation
Our Video was presented in my opinion just how i visioned it to be. I think personally it is what we was expected and aimed our vision of a narrative video. The whole part of a boy becoming a girl is linked together, especially at the end where the girl disappears and the boy comes, this illusion was presented very well, we used this so that the audience will realize the artist of the music video.
At the start where the beat heads the images are suppose to change, in the video the aims were matched. The idea of the beat and images moving was inspired from Rihanna Feat Calvin Harris - We Found Love, as her movie and duration changes when the music starts and within the music video, so we was inspired by this idea and used it within our video. It took us long time to get the hat scene which we wanted her to flick to hat although it want going within the beat, so we changed it in order for the character to apply by it and also for it to hit the melody.As within this scene the hat is different compared to the other shots. This was one of the changes made within the video because the actress was finding it difficult to wear the LA blue hat as it didn't fit her. As you can spot in the video their is different costumes because as music videos, artist don't always have the same outfits all through the video, by having different styles with hair and outfits this would show that teenagers change clothes so that the public do not understand and see it is them.
These images are used to resemble the clothing which teen boys wear, as you can see the colour of the video is black and white although our aim of having only blue elements standing out has been achieved. When the beat starts the images move within the beat so that it can get the audience attention. But also to move to the melody of the beat, when music being watched people would move and nod to the rhythm, by the video durations changing and moving to the beat audience would be more aware and interacted to the music video. At the start you can not see who the artist is, this is hiding the character in order not to ruin the whole image and vision of the video. This is also would keep the audience attention.
These scenes are the studio scene which is where the character would be making the song he/she has created their music. Although within this video their is a fault which is where there is suppose to be only black and white video with blue elements, there is inappropriate colours. This was a mistake which i, myself made because i added another colour when taking out the images to be blue. This was a mistake although it added a little affect which showed the emotions of the character within those scenes. The studio was meant to have the producer and other equipments showing, we took the shoot when the producer is there to control the artists, although we thought it didn't go with the beat and the mimicking would not be at the beat of the song. So we cut it of. It would of been a much of a realistic video if we had that part although it didn't go with the vision we was trying to achieve. There is scenes which she is laughing although that can be used to show the success and is laughing at how no one was there for him but he is still this great and flamboyant.
The illusion used within this scene is to get the audiences attention in order for the audience to visually see the artist who created this song. We wanted to show this because from our inspiration within Beyonce music video if i were a boy, there is both the male and female characters and in the end both characters go into their own form so that the audience understand the female was playing the males part at all times. As seen below Beyonce use the strategy of male and female transforming at the start of the video in order for the audience to understand what is going on, we wanted to use it at the end because we wanted to keep the audience still thinking why we used this type of video and also to make the audience want to watch the video more. If we used it exactly the same as Beyonce video that wouldn't be as effective as the idea of keeping a characters identity wouldn't apply. So by hiding the identity of a new artist, the audience would be second opinions of who the artist would be, so for hiding the artist identity the audience can appreciate the vocal and artistic of the artist rather than for the looks and charm.

As you can see we still keeping the idea of a girl going into a boys position, we used this idea because as people want to reach 'fame' they would want to go into anything such as any celebrity or star they ideal life, so when our female character was transformed into a male , she would act just like them in order to be just like them. The actions, clothing and attitude has to be strong and ' ghetto' so that she doesn't leave her character. The whole idea of her wearing the "geeky" glasses is to resemble the artist, as the artist himself does wear glasses she is imitating him on every move and outfit he wears.
We had different locations such as the bus, this was used in order to show what a life of a teenager would be. As she sat at the end of the bus, this is a stereotypical thing because teenagers which are from the 'ghetto' or are 'gangsters' they all sit in the back to mess about or to show the others in the bus they control the bus. We used this stereotypical thing in order to still have that image of a teenagers 'boy' life
This is scene is a point of view shoot, we used to show where the character is standing and also to get the vibe of the when people are standing in bus stops. We used this in order to use a different shoot and to show the audience how the character would stand and act physically when they are walking and moving. Also we used to show the examiner that we can use different types of shoots other than simple ones. The colour scheme is still black and white with blue elements.

Rihanna - We Found Love ft. Calvin Harris
The start of this song was setting outside the blocks, which then changes to a scene inside the blocks where Rihanna is staying at, its a 3-2 second duration on the female actor, this then changes to a bath scene which the male character is laying down. Both shoots are showing/ introducing the main characters within this Music Video, they both are from different shoots which gives a interesting vibe and would make the audience more aware of the video and also not to be"boring" for the audience.
The melody of the music goes within the scene which change around, every beat and melody controls the different scenes moving. The narrator is almost setting the scene and telling the story, the 40s vintage English dark dull scene and the British accent is showing a unnatural scenting because as Rihanna is American the video is showing a different scene which can be related to there romance, also the coloring of the video being dull that is also affected and resembled towards the love for each other.
When the piano plays the camera hits onto the male character then when the piano plays again the scene changes into the female character.
As shown Below.
When the start there isnt any music apart from the piano, and the narrator is speaking the words she is saying are all being implied within the shoots to show a visual understanding of the video. The music is still controlling when to change scene to still make the audience more attracted and interested within the video, also the wordings are all being implied within the video.
" That without them you feel like nothing". The wording is visually used to show the audience more understanding of the video, also it to engage the audience the meanings of the words and also to show the intimacy within the couple.
The video still is moving to the melody of the song, every beat the piano makes the video scenes change, this is still to engage the audience within the music video. Also the video settings change from the bedroom scene into the fields, although there is a moment which he is standing at the side of the fields and she is within the fields. This is a way to make the audience more interested int the video. The scenes are stilling changing, from scenes of the bath into the street and other scene which considerate onto the characters.
As the video starts as a positive start of which every fun they have the thunder to show a scene of dis-trace.Also its an intro the video which shows the intimacy within the characters also the thunder is a warning showing it might be a sharp and romantic relationship, although if your not safe something wrong might happen, such as someones heart will be broken.
As you can see the machine shows a sign written " PLAY NOW"! This is a sign to show when the music video is going to start in other words its a visual direct understanding on when the music will be playing. The scenes all change and all have a passionate vibe to show to the audience the fun and valuable times they are having together. Scenes are changing very quickly to make the video more interesting and too keep the audience attention because within this generation teens get very bored, very easily because they are use to having something keep them entertained. So when the video keeps changing quickly and having colours which change would make them more concerned.
There is wide shoots which show the setting more and also there is scene such as the one at the side, which are from the same setting but have different view and materials,it has a discontinuance scene which show unseen bit but it to make the video more interesting and better for the audience. The lyrics all are visually shown in the video.
This scene is a protractor shining onto her, the background shows flowers growing this can imply to the relationship is growing slowly. The discountenance is still happening all through out the video, this is just to cut the unnecessary bits which isn't needed, the whole video also shows a whole hallucination scene to show the audience the madness of their video.There is also discountenance scenes inside the fish and chips store where she and her 'boyfriend" are standing together and the scene changes to her standing on the table, this is used to have fillers which to cut the unnecessary bit and also to cut the video to have a shorter duration within that scene and also to have more affect on the video. The quick sharp changes have an affect to what is happening in the video and it adds effects which the audience would be more interested in.
The different shoots are to show the couples passionate relationships with each other and also it to show the audience the love' they have for each other. These images also imply to the name of the song as it visually shown. As love has many different and weird meaning, at the end of the day if two people love each other they anything for each other. The drugs and alcohol are resembled as a lose relationship showing that their relationship has hallucinations and unbalanced feelings. The drugs being thrown around and weed/cigarettes being used are to show they hide their emotions through these drugs, images of drugs and alcohol used to visual used to make audience more aware of the interesting. They use the drugs to camouflager the feelings for them and also when the drugs is moving pass out the body system the bad times are coming back. As shown below :
While this relationship is based on drugs, the relationship is lacking and the female character is getting a bit tired of the same routine every time, so she is having many arguments with her lover, these are also some physical arguments which relate to her previous relationship with her ex in 2009. when the drugs are getting off their system they are getting back to their normal energy, their love isn't the same as when they are high and drunk. This is symbiosis by the falling building suggesting their relationship is falling. The images are all changing but the mood has changed it being a relationship which isn't a fairy tale love scene of joy, but a miserable, argumentative love-hate relationship. So the female character can not take this and decides to leave: to put an end to this relationship.

occur to be be the same as their relationship having a "POP" vibe suggesting that they are enjoying the time they have for each other. As this video does a a reality meaning, which is her relationship with her ex boyfriend in 2009, this video is implying the "mad" love they had for each other.But because of him she has became much of a 'bad' person because of him introducing her into the "druggy' life style. As Rihanna had a image before as a sweet Carribean girl, she is implying that her relationship with man, she has changed because of him. That she started to do these things for the love she has for him and that she is not aware of the danger and anti-social things she is doing as shown below.
While this relationship is based on drugs, the relationship is lacking and the female character is getting a bit tired of the same routine every time, so she is having many arguments with her lover, these are also some physical arguments which relate to her previous relationship with her ex in 2009. when the drugs are getting off their system they are getting back to their normal energy, their love isn't the same as when they are high and drunk.

Music Video
When creating a video, the producer and director would be creating it so that it resembles the lyrics or the type of genre the music video is.
Music itself has many different types of genres, such as RnB, Rock, Indie, Rap, Gospel and many more. So within a music video, the type of colour, equipments and lighting used with have to be reflected to the type of music genre. If the video has inappropriate use of materials or sources that would affect how the video is presented. Music videos are used to resemble a short story to the lyrics of the artist. In fact music videos are like films although they show the whole meaning of a video but in a short story, which films don't do, allowing for extremely poetic artistic expression to be shown. Also by using different music videos to show emotions, as the lyrics are emotional and show a sense of feeling. The music video most apply to the video so that it would make sense to the audience.

How Chroma Key Used
Green and blue background are the two colours used when making affected movies and filming. Usually these colours are used because they are the only two main colours furthest away from skin tone. The Image above the background would still be the same, while the background changes and becomes the alternative background the person wants.
Green is used mainly because blue can camouflage with someones eye colour. So due to the that green would be more appropriate to use and also green is more sensitive towards the camera implying that the filming which would mean that the green coloring would be mimicking the human eyes increasing the green light, therefore the colour would produce the cleanest key/matte/mask.
however, blue is used before green,

Analysis of performers style and image in order to create a suitable music video for the performer.
This video is about a boy which is telling the world that nothing is there to stop him from his fame, As people always wants to be other people when they are famous or reach famous, the idea of a girl is to show that he is imitating those who want to be him and reach his success. So the idea of a girl wearing masculine outfits our idea. But the idea is that she dresses like a boy/ girl who lives within the 'hoods' so that the scenes in the bus and studio make sense.
The make up which she would be wearing is going to be clear so that it keeps that natural look of a boy, Although some scene she would be having her hair up to represent a boy although at other scenes her hair down to still keep the idea of her being a girl. As her eyes are blue, we would try to keep it dark within the editing because the colour element which is only going to stand out is blue which is nearly the same colour as the actress.
equpitments
Steadicam: we would need this as; the Camera would be following the actress movements. Also it would be very easy for us to move around.
Tripod: This would need as some video positions we would need to be steady, so the tripod would capture a better movement. Artificial Lighting: This might be needed. The lighting would keep the same in the video and to create a better vibe.
Studio Monitors: Loud speakers are used in order to project the music and sound around the area. This equipment will be used within our Studio scene in order to keep the studio scene realist. These types of monitors are used.
Microphones: This is used to project the persons/ object sound out loud and more projective in order to be heard properly. Microphone would be used to keep that studio vibe; so that the video looks like a real studio which celebrities and other music artist record their music within.
Laptops (Apple Mac) : This would also be within the music video and out. The apple macs would be used within the video to create that studio scene and also to show the new technology within the video. Also out the video, Apple mac computers would be used as they would be used to edit the videos.
Keyboard: (Music) This is to be used when the studio scene which can be used to show a more realistic studio. Also the keyboards are there to represent music. Also this is to get the audience attention.
Budget
The cost of the costume and location would be freee as we would have access to get our own costume. Also we would only have to pay the fee for the bus fair which is going to be £4.50. The only problem we are going to face is if the bus company asks us to give in some money to use the bus.
other then that the only money/ budget we would be using is the bus fair.
there also going to be budget of the drink we are going to buy, the powerade is the next type of budget we would be buying.

Presentation
This is our presentation, it is to display our inspirations and goals toward the class and so that they would understand what we would want within our video. The presentation shows little parts of our pre-production and storyline.
Animatic
The Rej3ctz - Cat Daddy (Starring Chris Brown)
The type of Animation of writing used in this video, is the type we want to use. We are using this type of animation because we want to create a live vibe. Also it would be very unique from other type of music videos, as our video would be in black and white. As many video's that are being produced they have animation so that it has that trend of wild, free and energetic. Many music videos are used to the type of things the audience do, such as trends, the type of beat they are now interested in music videos. So within our video we choose to have animation so that it would interest the audience and make them feel more attracted to the video.

Location List
Our location for our work would be in different areas. Our 1st area we would be located is at a house. This place is needed becuase in our video the place it will be starting would be in side a bedroom. The 2nd location would be in a bus stop. We are using this location becuase this music video is ment to show the life was a teenager, so the bus stop would be a appropraite place to film it in. Another location would be within the bus. This to engage with the scene in the bus stop. The other location would be in the area near the studio. Samantha would be walking in the street, to show the narrative side of the music video. It also would be in the same location as the studio.
The studio will be located in Foleshill/Stoney Stanton. We choosen this location becuase one of the members have easy acces to the area. Also it is to reflex on the moral we are trying to send.

Treatment
This Music video is about a young boy who wants to gain success and trying to show the world no one is going to stop him. Although there is a mix. Which is the artist himself acting in the video, it is a female. She would be living a life like a teenager boy who wants to get famous. This video is going through reality scenes, from Double Decker buses to the studio. As many teenagers and other people want to reach fame, Sam the actress is imitating the artist as her 'role model'. She would display herself as him, dress like him, walk like him and also act like him, this is what many teenagers would do in this generation. For example when Nicki Minaj was introduced into the 'Music Game', many female and male people started to imitate her look and how she acts, this can be the same towards our video. He would go to the studios to standing around bus stops, she would imitate the exact things so that the audience understand the lifestyle of the artist
Risk Assesment
The risk of this assessments can vary.
1. The shoes which Sam is going to wear might not fit her properly, so she might have problems moving i.e she may trip.
2. Many other people might be in the video and may not approve it. So some people would be abusive.
3. The Bus might have a car crash.
4. Teenagers might rob our equipments as we would be taking the video in the public.
5. The weather might be hazardous and the camera can be damaged.
6. Public might find our video offensive towards them.

Image Of Looking for extra members on the msuic video
Inspirations
Also this scene is like the scene within the studio, where we still want to keep the colour scheme which is black and white and also with blue elements. We didn't get the idea from here, but it similar so that we can get the 'vibe' of a young teenagers life. But although the studio scene which we want would be her standing and so that we can see the costume she is wearing to also show the blue elements within the video. We chose to do that in order to not have a dull video which only has a little colour and to keep the audience interested.
Custom Of Characters
In our video we are having a black and white video but with blue elements standing out.
So in order to achieve this, the custom we are going to use need to have blue within it.
Blue T-shirt
Blue Pumps
Grey Hoodie
Hat with Blue Elements
Black Trousers
We are using bagging material clothes, in order to send the message of masculinity.

Adele - Someone Like You
With in this video, we want to use the concepts of the black and white video and also to use how they used the structure of the camera. As this video shows a narrative story, ours we are trying to do the similar. Although as we would be having some elements blue. Our main aim is to have the same tracking as this video, so that it can show the same privileges and also tho show the lifestyle of a teenager who is trying to look for fame.

Within this lesson we was tying to establish how to use the camera, also we was creating scenery for example what the colours we are going to use is. Also we changed parts of the ideas we had.
Rehersals
Within our rehearsals we are planning to get many actress within the story line because we have a scene which needs more then one actor. As Sam is the main actress, in one of the scenes in the studio we need to get other actress in order to give the scene a more balanced vibe. Also the people we will be looking for are going to be females because as this video is a opposite of every "gender" part in the lyrics . So we are having females rather men.

change of colouring
Within our group we have realised that red isnt the right colour to use as an element.
For the reason being we was having a difficulty on the colour and also the actresses skin tone.
So we decided to go to blue because this colour shows masculinity. Also clarity, of having no emotions because men have less emotions then women.

Three Types of Video
Rihanna - Man Down.
This video is based on a narrative story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEhy-RXkNo0
Description: How the music video starts content to the lyrics she uses. As this is repeated the audience realize the concept of her "shooting this man'. This music video isn't linked to a specific film, but the song itself tells a story. This was used to show emotions of the actor. This colours used embraces the concept of the video. As the dim colours express the death of this 'man'. its a love song is based on her experience with relationship abuse. So she is expressing her feelings through a narrative music video.
Willow Smith : Whip My Hair official video
This video is a performance based: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymKLymvwD2U&ob=av2e
Description: Willow smith is a young artist trying to embrace her music by what she enjoys doing. This video is performances based, it used to entertain the audience. In my opinion i think she made this video because of her unique style of hair. As she is a youngster this video isn't to expressive or explicit. This video is mainly based on performance e.g they dancing. As within a narrative music video. This video lyrics content to the music video. This was used to express the main subject of this video.
Katy Perry- E.T ft Kanye West
This video is a Concept Based Video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5Sd5c4o9UM&ob=av2e
Description: Katy Perry is showing a sci-fiction and animated video to embrace the love she has for this unusual lover. The idea of this video is that she finds this man attractive but can't believe that such human can be such perfect and different from the other people. The video is based on one character or even idea. Which in this case is sci-fiction alienated video.

Florence +The Machine Rabbit Hearts
Florence and The Machines are well known for their vintage unique style.
1. Lighting/ Colour
In the first scene. the colour is dim , it changes while she take the vale of her face. This is used to show an effect on "New Life Beginning". As the video is carrying on the video is getting brighter. This shows the vintage look of Florence and the Machine. The lightness of the sky brings more a happier mood into the scene. As she moves around, all the colours they are wearing are very bright, this brings the concept of Alice and The Wonderland.In The table scene, the light is mainly on the characters in the table. Although from the people at the back the colour is a dim. This showing a expression of the importance. As in the Roman times those who had high quality living get to live the privileged life of eating whatever they want.
2. Clothes/Makeup
Florence is the main character in this video. That brings the reason for the makeup she is wearing. As compared to the rest of the dancers. As she has pink lipstick , it is engaging to her looks and her hair.
*Her Hair colour brings different kind of emotions. As a Phoenix, her hair colour can bring kindness and also innocents. Although if others look at phoenix, they think creature of danger.*
In the as she wore a grey cloak. That symbolise that she in a trapped universe. As the female characters take the cloak of her it shows that she is escape from the trapped universe into heaven.
The dress she is wearing is a smooth colour. As it can blend into the layout/setting. The Jewellery/ headband she is wearing stands out! she wore it so that she can stand out from the rest of the others characters. This also contradict to the concept of Alice and Wonderland, as she was the main character in the story.
The Clothes they wearing are vintage, this comes to the term of the look which Florence + The Machine show. The Scene when they are all in the table. The two male characters are wearing colours which are more dim. These colours were used so that she can stand out ! Another thing is that the clothes they wore are concept to Alice and Wonder and the roman times.
3. Facial Expression/ Body Language.
Florence half the time when she is singing is closing her eye softly. This shows a innocents in the character. As the cloak is being taking off her. Her facial expression changes, she gets more happier and is being exposed as a child who been allowed to go into their favourite toy store. That is expressed by when she jumps around the area and spins around. The choreography doesn't look that well choreographed, because she looks loose. But that is implying to the freedom she has whenever she is in this universe. As many dance moves, or choreographed dance is mainly stiff and strong this is completely different, for the reason being this video brings a more spiritual vibe.

Weapon Choice : FatBoy Slim
Weapon of choice....
Narrative:
Within this video it hasn't got a major or multiple storyline, all it is a man dancing. This video isn't to explicit as other videos.
It showing how people feel and would express themselves when they are alone. As Fatboy Slim is "Britain's top dance mixmaster" and Christopher Walken is known as a "hollywood mid age bad boy" they both do not mix.
For both to be interacting is something new, as this video isn't alike normal "dance/pop" music videos, this shows a wider variety. In other hands with a 'businessman' just dancing by himself in this hotel/work office place isn't what normal or original for pop videos. Its a filmic video, it shows a story. Mainly because of the actor which is starring in the music video. The message the video is implying in my own opinion is; that he believes everyone chooses what to do in life, though many they enjoy living life happily alone. As well as how the actor is just standing on furniture, going up the elevator but not using it properly expresses his emotion of joy. Although he objects to be a successful man because of the suit . He doesn't have a pleasant facial expression when the music video starts, as the beat gets louder and the narrator sings. The actors emotions changes , he enjoys the freedom of him being by himself but as he realise, this is just a fantasy he settles down back to his seat.
It Gives a happy feeling, the beat is very easy to remember and people can reflex back to the music. The lyrics gives a vision of which people can understand; can reflex to their ordinary life style.
The location where this video was placed is originally meant to be advertised, not usually used as a "POP video". This was quiet unusual because of the costume or outfit the main actor was doing. As well as that moves he doing is making the video more entertaining for the viewers. Fatboy Slim maybe used him to send off many messages.
- Camera shots/types/movements
- In the Beginning it started off as a Long shot, it then changed by the camera becoming a close-ups shoot. This was used to show the setting of the video and also to show what the actor face is expressing. The shoots change by it getting more closer to the actors face to show his emotions. When the music starts, the shoots again becomes a long shot. this is used for effection. This just keeps on repeating. So that the audience get what the actor is expressing or feeling.
- There is low shot, this was used only when he was fantasying about himself flying. This was used to show the length he was far from the ground.
- The camera was moving because this was a filmic video. So it was showing the scenery in the video and for us to get the 'story' of the music video. The director used that because he was showing the 'weapons' used. In other words what the business man has got.
quote by http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=1543... explains that 'weapon of choice" is actually entitled to a film called Dune.
his song is very much based on (at least peripherally) the David Lynch movie, Dune. Much of the heady subplot involves a secret weapon that one family has over all the others; the main character is, himself, a weapon; he knows a rare and closely-guarded martial art that no other men know; a subculture of witches called the Bene Gesserit utilize an ability called "The Voice" that allows them to bypass the victim's higher brain functions and give them an irresistable command, and the weird affect on Bootsy's voice during much of the song sounds a great deal like the weird affect used in the movie when The Voice is used; the line about Walking without rhythm and not attracting worms is lifted almost directly from the film (and the book); a major theme of the book and the movie is ascension to a higher form of life, as Paul is expected to transcend normal human existence (as in the lyric, "It's gone beyond being a man"), and the final stanza reflects this.
Also this story that explores the complex interactions of politics, religion, ecology, technology, and human emotion. This does link to the video as
actor doesn't care about what he is doing. But expresses his feelings when he is dancing. But some movements are martial arts.
