2. Opening shots
There are a range of shots used in the first 10 seconds introducing the singers.
The angle of all off these are shots are the same however there are a range of close
ups and mid shots.
The very first shots are establishing all four
singers, this seems popular for a girl group
music video.
The use of the split screen is very popular for
POP music videos with each performer
having their own background and personality
3. First 10 seconds..
The use of split screen is used again with only
two performers, however with a mid shot.
The positioning of the camera is still the same
in these shots however the shot types have
changed such as a close up and mid shot.
4. Shot types and angles
Throughout the video there are many different types of shots varying from a close
up, mid shot, long shot and establishing shot. However there are only two different
camera angles, the main one is front on and the other is from the left side using a
mirroring effect.
At this point of the
video there is a split
screen of close up and
mid shots
The camera angle on these shots are
straight on with the use of the split screen
and different shots such as mid shot and
close up.
5. This is the only other angle in Little
Mix’s video, it is from the left angle and
is effective. We could do this in ours.
6. All of these shots are from the same
angle which is straight on but have
different angles such as long shot, group
mid shot and extreme long shot.
7. Costume
Throughout the video there are four different costume changes for each
singer, this mainly happens when there is a location change. All of their outfits
are stylish and brightly coloured which sometimes match the backgrounds. With
the fast pace editing and dancing these costumes give an exciting feel.
One costume which matches
their background
9. Setting and lighting
The setting looks as if it is in a warehouse and in front of a green screen as there
are a lot of shots where there is a customised background, this works well with
the fast pace beat and editing and the bright costumes.
Each singer have their own personal
background which is used each time they are
filmed on their own throughout the video.
10. The lighting is probably spot lights as
their will not be much natural light
in a factory.
11. Props
The only prop used is a stall for all of the dancers and
singers, this is only used for them to dance on and
around which shows it is a very simple video.
