Research 2 (Preliminary Task)

The music video to Don Diablo - Got the Love has a storyline based around a child similar to our idea however this clearly attempts to show the child's imagination. The use of the child's toys and the low angle shot at the beginning showing him looking up to the moon tells us he's in his own little world dreaming about outer space. Also the special effects of the lights show his surprise and excitement and make it seem unusual and mysterious. We understand this is his imagination from the close up shots of his face linking everything to him, this would be good to include in our video as well as child's emotion.

Initial Ideas

I have to so initial ideas, they are similar ideas but based around two different songs. I like to mind map my ideas because this means i can link parts together and getting everything down on paper before I start adapting it. One of the main parts of mise en scene that I want to focus on more than the others is camera angles. This is going to be important especially to show the change in perspective between the characters. It will also give the video an edge.

Song Choice

I've chosen to use Powerless by Rudimental as the song for my music video. This has been one of my potential choices from when I first changed my idea. I wasn't really sure whether it would fit or not but after I put it with my footage to see how they went together, I thought they fitted really well. I've divided the song into sections of the choruses and verses so that I can match my footage accordingly. The music video to this already contains a strong narrative as do many of Rudimental's videos.
