- My preparing shots has improved
I have now realised that when filming in a busy place pedestrians are likely to ruin the shots by entering the frame. To prevent this happening, now we have someone to stand out of shot telling people to wait or, we put up signs to let people know that we are filming.
- Framing
Last year we filmed a shot in front of a window and didn't realise that the camera and crew where in the reflection, that ruined a lot of shots wasted footage and time.
Research:
Last year we did no research on music videos we literally just heard the song "Stand By Me" and filmed the first idea that came to mind. Now I have a much better understanding of different genres and what is expected of that genre for example
- Hip-Hop
Video has a clear narrative that relates to story of the song equal shots of artist and narrative
- Rap
No clear point to the video complete amplification although there is no story to the video the bragging lyrics are displayed on the screen as the rappers display how rich they are and all the sexy women that surround them. Women are likely to have big breast and big bums and wearing very little clothing.
- R&B
Videos are typically sensual and suggestive as the genre typically is. The videos normally feature a male or female artist with a lover and they act out the words of the song either through arguments or suggestive sex it all depends on the lyrics of the song.
- Rock
Rock videos almost always have a few shots of the band performing the song
- Pop
Pop videos usually have some kind of cheesy dance routine throughout the song very bright colours and clothes.
