From our recce trip to Brighton we benefited largely through
experimenting with different camera shots and techniques, which I believe we
will try to incorporate into our final music video.
· We experimented a lot with the use of handicams
during our trip, particularly when filming in the arcade on the pier. We liked this technique and think it will be
effective in our own final production because during the boys dream state we
want the audience to feel present but also aware that the clip is not real life
so the handicam gives it a slightly disorientated dreamy feel. This will also
be presented with some a colour grade effect so it is clear that this
state is not reality, and a fast cutting rate will reinforce the boys happiness
and display action.
·
We worked on time-lapses during our trip to Brighton;
this is a technique we may consider using during our final production. The time
passing in our video could represent many things, like how regardless of how
the time passes nothing changes for the boy at home and his situation never
gets better. This could be shown through a shot of the sun going down into
darkness.
· The use of slow motion was effective during our
trip to catch shots of the sea and mainly catching emotion. I think we will use
a lot of slow motion in our final production to display the contrast of
emotions from when the boy is at home where he is very uncomfortable, to this
dream state where he is happiest.
