2. These are secondary pictures that I have found that give a very melancholic
atmosphere. The Tall trees and buildings give a very imposing impression due
to their height. Vast and empty spaces also give a very mighty impression due
to their expanse. These scenes would not be found in pop music videos and
more likely to be found in indie rock music videos with a more gothic or dark
tone. This could reflect the overall tone in out song choice. The religious
imagery of the church and graveyard will also reflect the almost religious aspect
of our song choice ‘Heaven Or Hell’ and create a link between the song and the
visuals like in Andrew Goodwin’s theory.
3. After listening to the song over and over
again I had a strong sense that the artist
was falling from grace, and fighting a battle
against themselves , a battle between good
and evil. I really liked the image of the artist
falling in the song Shatter Me by Lindsey
Stirling and it might suit our song so it
would be nice to try it out. I also really like
the idea of being underwater, as it gives the
image of struggle.
4. In terms of costume for the mise-en-scene, I thought that very simple clothing would
work well, especially the white dress as it works well with the concept of heaven that is
repeated through out our song. This is also why I have included a picture of rosary
beads. This again links the visual with the lyrics like in Andrew Goodwin’s theory. I liked
the outfit from Running With The Wolves by Aurora, as it is very simple and almost
uniform like and with the grey colour palette, it gives a very melancholic atmosphere.
Furthermore, I like the idea of using black and white as it represents the binary
opposites of heaven and hell.

This is a brainstorm of key words that describe our music video and the overall
