Shot types


Below, are a series of different shots which I have taken out from Lola and I's music video to the song 'Crazy in Love' by Sofia Karlburg. The shots shown are a few of my favourite ones that I find add depth, clarity and simplicity to our video. The first shot of Lauren in the dance studio gives off a lyrical feel since the dancer is rehearsing and letting out her emotion as she practises. With co-ordination to this shot, Lola and I used another shot from the pit that fits really well with this shot. This is because the two shots are very different since this shot is taken from a low angle, and the second is a medium close up shot of her legs. 

The second shot shown is one of my favourites. This is because I love the way in which the lighting contrasts the dancer and really brings out her red lipstick and emotions through her facial expressions. This medium shot is of her dancing, which Lola and I were very proud to get since it was very hard to film shots of Lauren dancing since there is lots of movement going on throughout, and we want to sustain that high quality level for our footage. The third shot shown of Alice and Jack portrays the meaning of 'Love' throughout this song. This is because by adding in a few snapshots of the couple doing 'couple' things without making it look very cringeworthy, I think that we have managed to maintain that very well, since the length of these shots are also quite short and sweet. The fourth and fifth screenshots shown of the couple again, highlight the silhouette shots that Lola and I managed to film. I really like these shots because I feel that the natural lighting has managed to give us some of the best shots of the video. It's what makes our video different and unique. Lastly, the shot of Alice on her own looking above and beyond the camera lens is one of my ultimate favourite shots that I managed to film. This is because Golden hour has just started to appear, which makes her stand out since the sun is highlighting her hair.
