3) What locations would youlike to see in an indie music video and why?
Nick– A street where they walk past each other

(open area), as the song gets darker and deeper youcould have much more inner close

Nick– Anaconda – because it’s got my favouriteperson in it (NickiMinaj)
Joe – It’s a hard one – Maybe Frank Ocean – Swim good – Really old, 1980’s orange flemo –
Frank Ocean in this comodo kind of thing, he’s a monk and just so good
Tommy – ‘See you again’ from Fast & Furious – Based around the death of one of the main actors
and it really sets the tone forhim leaving the film series
Tom – Avicii – Hey brother – the music video shows the song in a different/creative way
6) Do youprefer long or short editing/shots?
Nick– I think cut shots because its more interesting
Joe – I personally like long editing shots because it tells a story but at the same time if the actual
sound fits in with short cut shots then it can really make it fitin
Tommy – Normally I prefer long shots because there’s a story developing and it allows youto
see that, but then if it’s a quite up tempo song then short shots will fir better with that
Tom – I think long shots, wouldone fit youridea better and second of all it also allows the
audience to understand what’s going on more.
