Cutting out elements and adapting the music video


Harvey made a mix tape of the main sources we based our video on, with our main song as the soundtrack to see if the overall look would have work or not, and we realise that after a good minute the video would have become boring, as the song is really calm and it doesn’t fit with the contrast of fast dancing and long stares from characters.

From this we decided to cut the idea of the main dancers and just keeping the main five girls.
As the video now is lacking of performing elements we decided to reincorporate the drummer, as a possibility however we need to find more for the music video. We were also looking at other songs to see if maybe something more pop would work with our original idea, however this isn’t the final idea so adapting it is still possible.


We have talked to Phill to talk about out overall idea and he agreed with the thought of cutting the dancers and also he took once our main inspirational source and analysed in front of us, to show us the amount of elements incorporated in it, and even if it looks like a simple and poor video there is lots going on, that keeps up the attention of the audience, at least 7 or 8 things happen in the video, for how similar they can be seen they still nicely shot and design to appeal to the viewers eyes.

We are also planning a test shoot with our main singer to see of she fits the look and her performance standard.
