Our props and costumes



Props -

For our props we didn't really want to include much we was aiming for it to be more the artist and a background. For this reason there wouldn't be many props, however when filming these were the props included. Prop wise, we have very limited use of props. However there is the use of a mobile phone and a field which consists of a park bench and trees. As well as a handbag and hoodie.

Costumes -

In our music video we would like to focus more on the lyrics and demonstrate that through the scenery etc, rather than portraying it how its shown in the original video by Galantis. As the original video does not follow a narrative. The use of colours that we will be using will be dark colours with red. The red represents the idea of love and the colour black is suppose to represent the idea that she is trying to hide away and is on the run. The costume used throughout is very casual and a typical teenager outfit, so what you would expect to see on a teenager. The reason we chose to keep it simple and teen like was because the music video is about young love and the target audience for the song is teenagers or young adults, as well as anyone who likes electro-pop. The costumes are not really a key part of the video, its more about the actions taking place throughout. Although we do have two lovers in school uniform, to represent that they are young.

Website analysis of Dua Lipa

Website Home Page The home page features a black and white theme keeping it simple and modern. The photo featured is of the artist 'Dua Lipa'.

Equipment/Lighting decisions in our music video

Lighting is very important in music videos, as it allows it to be easier to see and also as it sets certain moods and atmospheres. An example of this would be, if we used low amount of lighting then it'll be setting a dull and sad atmosphere which would help highlight the meaning behind the song is not a positive atmosphere. Also the other way round as well, as if a large amount of colour is used then it'll set a more upbeat atmosphere and show that they're more likely to be given a positive media video to see.  Jessie J clip Here is a clip of Jessie J where she has dull lighting which represents the atmosphere as dull and an unhappy situation. The song is of a sad subject, it is negative song lyrics, this is helped by the lighting as its all dull however she is shown with a little more light over her so that she is highlighted as the main  This music video gives an impression of a dull meaning behind it just by the setting and equipment used in the shots, thi

Textual Analysis- Please don't leave me by Pink

Performance: The performance consists of Pink, the artiste dressed as a nurse, but not your typical hospital nurse. it is more of a sexy nurse outfit, which is suppose to appeal to the male gaze. Lyrics:  The song is about a couple with a a controlling girlfriend that is abusive towards her boyfriend, pushing him away but not wanting him to actually leave her. '   "I always say how I don't need you, but it's always gonna come right back to this, please don't leave me." Genre / mise en scene: The song is a Pop rock, dance pop song. whereas the video genre is horror/thriller. Camerawork: The camera is often seen following Pink, there is often the use of low angle that makes Pink appear powerful. Editing: Often the shots are continuous,especially when they are fighting at the start, they are also quite jumpy and choppy to go with their fast actions. There is a lot of back and forth with the use of continuous to show the set and the scenes. I
