2. AFTER BRAIN STORMING OUR IDEAS
FOR OUR MUSIC VIDEO AND BEGINNING
OUR STORYBOARD, WE DECIDED THAT
ONE OF THE FEATURES WE FEEL WOULD
BE EFFECTIVE TO USE IS THE USE OF
SILHOUETTES. WE ARE CONSIDERING
USING SILHOUETTES OF ARE ACTORS SO
WE DECIDED TO TAKE SOME PRACTISE
SHOTS SO THAT WE COULD FIGURE OUT
HOW TO CREATE A GOOD SILHOUETTE
USING LIGHTING.
3. • Here are some examples of effective silhouettes used in Music Videos:
5. • In this attempt we used a white back ground and bright lighting. We found that the
silhouettes created were faint and more of a shadow. It was also hard to capture the
image of the silhouette without including the model in the photos as she had to be
quite close to the wall.
• We then decided to try a second attempt making some alterations to our set.
7. • In the second attempt we used a darker background and lower, dimmer lighting. We
also used objects such as an umbrella and a toy gun and we found that the
silhouettes created were much more effective as they were much darker and thicker.
• When creating silhouettes for our final piece we will replicate this technique, but use
higher quality camera as these photos were captured using iPhone cameras.
