Inspiration, look and feel

Me and faye sat down together during one of our lessons and after deciding that we knew we wanted a concept video that it would probably be quite handy if we actually had some concept ideas.

one of our ideas was for our 'cha cha' section of the song, although after practice filming and how much we liked the section we had done the lyrics are repeated quite a few times so we could use the section from practice filming mixed with a different concept. A concept that we came up with is that we could have two people (man and a woman) to be dancing the cha cha and have the shadows of them all moving to link in with the more mellow side of the song because dancing people more link with happiness or fast paced music so i think using the shadow of the couple make it more effective and fitting with the song.

 Another idea we had was to test out some uv paint, it always looks really effective in photographs and on camera. You can try a lot of wacky things with this but  i think we would try and make it look artistic and pretty like in the photo to the left

 The picture above left is something we were thinking of playing with for the lyric 'gone to find a place for us to hide' we came across the image when we were looking at make up ideas and it just looks really effective we would definitely use this as the style we would have so the crazy hair, bare shoulders and more delicate features drawn onto the hands.

Hand shadows were something we was also going to look into because again we just liked the effect it had and also played with the whole shadowing kind of effects we were going with. from the hand shadow puppets we thought we could have me on a plain white wall singing with all hand shadows moving around me which we think would look really good but could be quite unrealistic as would be quite hard creating the hand shadows without them being in the shot. But it may be something that we play around with a test.

The figure of the girl standing in front of the sun is something we definitely going to use, but will be doing by using our art dark room in school and a dish light so although it would not have the same effect of the sun but is the same concept idea.

This concept i really liked, the image is of ink dropping into water and this is the outcome of it. I saw it used in a music video and it just looked really effective.

Last concept we found was doing something with fairy lights and we knew we wanted to film in the forest so we ended up thinking of combining the two i really like the idea of this picture and could look really effective but could also be very dangerous as would be very easy for the tea lights to catch fire just to a tiny bit of dried leaves because of the risk of this we decided to leave this idea but we are definitely considering the whole fairy/tea lights concept.
