Music video ideas

2. Our original choices…
 Years and Years – Memo
Genre: House music, Electronica,
Synthpop.
 Ella Eyre – We don’t have to take
our clothes (Whipped Cream Remix) –
Mr Revillz
Genre: Dance
 Sia – Fair Game
Genre: Synthpop, electropop

3. Final Choice
 We decided to choose the song ‘We don’t have to
take our clothes off’ (Whipped Cream Remix)
because the pace of the song changes
throughout which means we can use a variety of
quick and long shots. We also think that this song
would allow us to do a lot more compared to the
other choices. By this I mean that the beat and
style of the song is helpful in allowing us to use
many different shot types fitting to the song.

4. Our ideas
 We decided not to go along with a narrative based video as it
would not suit the style of the song so instead we have decided
to base it around the concept of having fun, being chilled out,
free and young.
 We think the video would suit a sunny and summery vibe
therefore we would like to shoot the video in various sunny
locations. However the problem for this could be difficult because
the time that we come to filming summer will be over so we will
need to plan ahead and film on days where it will, hopefully, be
sunny.
 We would like our artist to be seen having fun in various
locations. This means we will be practice our filming skills as we
will film many different types of shots and then eventually use the
ones that are best fitting for the song.
 We are also considering incorporating some performance based
shots to the video so it does not look overdone.

5. Locations
Some of the locations that we would like to film at are:
 The beach – We would like to use this location because it is a good
representation of summer and will help to portray a positive vibe.
We would like to film various shots of our artist having fun here,
chilling out, messing around and being silly. An issue that we may
coming to do this is choosing when to go because we will be filming
in Autumn so we will have to plan ahead and go on a day when it
will, hopefully, be sunny.
 Festival – We would like to use shots of the crowds at festivals
because it represents that this video is from the dance genre.
Showing people dancing and having fun will help to portray a fun
atmosphere. An issue that we may have with this is that is may be
hard to film steadily at a festival as they can be quite hectic.
 Club – This would be a good location because it comes under the
codes and conventions for ‘dance genre’. It could work really well
because it could capture a fun and happy atmosphere. However, we
may not have access to filming in a place like this as nobody in our
group is 18 yet.
 Theme park – This is something that is associated with having fun
and having a good time so we think that it could be a good location.
Some of the shots may include our artist on the rides or walking
around the theme park.
