Film Inspiration

We have got some of our inspiration for the storyline and the feel of the music video from films. One of the big films that have helped us realise what sort of story and shots that we want in our project is 'On The Road'
This is one of the shots from the film that is good for what we want to show in our music video as it shows the main character walking along the train track with their luggage to show to the audience that they are travelling. We are also inspired by the way he is wearing dark clothing at the same time as the sun shining and making the location within the scene look bright and cheerful.

The light behind the main characters head in the this shot with the sun setting is a shot that we want to recreate for the ending of our music video as it shows the emotion as we want the camera to turn to face her and for her to smile with the sun shining behind her as it sets and then the music video ends. We feel this would be a good ending as it shows that she is happy in her own little way and she is at her happiest when she is travelling, alone.

This scene from 'On The Road' is perfect for our music video as we ant our main character to meet people on her journey that show her happiness. Her dancing would be a good shot to have with people as it is when people are at their happiest. The people around her shows that she is comfortable with them as she is able to dance and let go in front of them. Her dancing on her own shows that for that moment she is the centre of attention as well as her being alone even in the happiest of times to some extent.

This shot from the film is something we want to portray in our music video as is focuses on the emotion of the main character which is a big part of our project because of the song and our storyline. Showing how she is feeling throughout the music video at different points and in different situations she is put in within it helps the audience to know how her emotion changes within the stages so that the viewers feel the same way and get more of a vibe from it.

The scene from 'On The Road' where there is a close up of a women laughing is a shot that we want to show in our music video project. We want to show her happiness every stage that she smiles or laughs to really emphasis upon it as this is a big factor in our music video, her emotions and the change in it with different people and surroundings.
