Birdie - Skinny Love
Skinny Love by Birdy, has influenced the decision of my music video in different ways. This is because it has a lyrical feel to it, and that is what myself and my partner, Lola are trying to portray in our video. Especially since we are going to be adding elements of performance in the video. The lighting throughout this video is very low key for example, at 0.16 seconds, there is a medium close up shot of her silhouette. This creates a moving atmosphere for the audience, since there are slow motion shots of her moving through the house on her own. This is something that i would like to do in my music video since it will help to emphasise the mood and atmosphere that is being shown through the song, and it also helps the audience to recognise the difference between the narrative and the performance of this music video.
The use of cinematography has also helped to make a final decision of what song to do. This is because most of the shots are made up of medium close ups or close ups of the artist. This is an important way to express emotion out to the audience so that they can feel some sort of relation with the artist.
The narrative of this video is strong throughout. This is because it is quite a passionate song so a strong narrative is needed in order to emphasise the convention.
Overall, the technical codes, narrative and performance throughout this music video has influenced some of the ideas that i think need to be conveyed into the production of my music video.
