Research of existing music videos - DJ Fresh - gold dust

This video is effective because unlike with Chase & Status, during the chorus of the song which speeds up instantly, the shots remain long takes but the content (skipping) speeds up which remains in time with the song so works just as effectively as shorter takes in time with the music. The skipping controls the pace of the music video and shot lengths.
The video involves a variety of ages and talents playing games but they're all very talented, I want to have actors with a similar talent level in other sports. The video doesn't include many special effects apart from slow motion, which was effective with the skipping in capturing the expressions of each actor. While I feel this was very successful and I will try and re-capture that in my own video, I will try and include more effects to try and portray a wide range of skills.

Existing Student Music Video

This video features numerous different editing skills and camera shots throughout the video, the wide range is something I want to echo in my video, however I found the lack of obvious narrative frustrating as it lacked meaning. By following the one character through the video is easily to follow through the simplistic idea which was executed well through the smooth editing skills.

Actors

This is Ruth, Freddie and Chris. I asked these to film because I wanted it to look like a young family and I was positive they would be willing to help out. I am hoping that their connection to each other will come through on camera. This is John and Harry they are brothers and have kindly agreed to be in the music video. As with the family I want there connection as brothers to come through in the footage. There's is a big age gap in there and I would like the influence of the older brother to be obvious when I film, so he comes across as a role model. Josie acted as Becky Hill the featured singer on the song. The setting was a recording studio were Josie lip synced the song, with the recording microphone and stand I managed to get as a prop.
