Analysis of 3 different videos that have influenced our final post production:
Coldplay - The Scientist
I've chosen this video because mainly the genre is 'Indie' and the video focuses more on the artist rather than the attraction of locations and narratives like in other genres. This has influenced our planning production as the video looks simple and not complex yet looks very organised and entertaining. The shots where the camera is following the movement of the singer had influenced us as we too have focused more on the singer rather than whats around him. The simplicity of the locations being in the streets, park, woods allowed us to follow this criteria as our genre of the song is indie therefore this video was a top contender for influencing me to produce our song.
Sam Smith - Stay with me
Another song related to our genre and style that influenced our final production. The close up and medium shots are repeated to focus specifically on the artist rather then whats around him. The tracking of the artist is done smoothly and constantly again to prioritize the singer. Also the clothing and locations have been a great influence as we've seen that everyday locations like streets and roads can be made to look very appealing and professional. Furthermore, the filter is another which had given us an idea to use in our video, saturating the light colours and lowering the brightness so the video has a cold sort of gloomy effect.
John Newman - Cheating
Lastly, this video consists of a lot of slow motion, blurred out and then focused shots which looks very entertaining to watch. The slow motion is normally used to show the narrative and show the singer when he wasn't singing just so it allowed more time to focus on the artist. The blurred and focused shots influenced us as we want to have the audience to have that excitement and thrill to see our artist.
