Props

We have gone to town and bought equipment for the Music videos. This was things such as a clock, clothes, hats, and other items. We need these for our music video otherwise we cant film most of it.

Analysing

We have looked and analyzed a few music videos in the same genre as booty call (the song we are doing.)

These are such songs as
'All the small things' -Blink 182
'Lez be friends' - The Midnight Beast
'white and nerdy' - weird al.

In these music videos they all use very quick changing shots and a lot of cuts. I think this is because of the was the lines are really fast and it also keeps the audience entertained. they use a lot of mid shots - long shots for the narrative scenes, this is to set the main focus of the camera on the person singing. We have noticed that they only use the same shot 1-4 times per video. This is because its easier to film and still looks very professional and affective.

Booty Call

We have looked at the song Booty Call by The Midnight Beast and looked at the different shots that they used to make up there music videos. The majority of the shots are close ups and mid shots. This is because it shows the singer most of the time, therefore it is putting the cameras focus on them.

On a song as fast and upbeat as 'Booty Call' there is alot of editing used. This is such as alot of cutting but not as many special effects such as fading and wipes.

Changing songs.

We have decided to change songs to the song: BootyCall which is still by the midnight beast. We have done this because we like the faster pace music in the song. Also we will be able to film this song easier as we know what and where to film. The genre would be pop, although it is alot faster then majority of pop songs therefore we will have to use alot of short shots and quick cuts. This is because the song is fast therefore the video will have to be fast to keep up with it.
