Planning: Final idea

Artist: SZA ft Kendrick Lamar
Song Title: Babylon
Genre: Hip Hop/ Soul

I have chosen the artist SZA as she is a diverse artist. We chose the version of the song that features Kendrick Lamar as he is quite a mainstream artist, This allows us to appeal to both a mainstream audience and a more diverse audience.
We have chosen this song in particular as it tackles themes such as suicide, trusting people and feeling alone. These are themes our target audience being teenage girls and young women can relate to.
We have chosen this genre as it falls between the hip hop and soul genre. This makes it appeal to more than one group of people.

Video Content:
Our video will contain  3 different scenarios. One of them showing a young couple having relationship problems. One showing a girl at prom being bullied.  And one showing a teenager who is a young carer.
We have been inspired by Destiny's Child' video for the song "Emotions"  where they tell 3 different narratives thought using different editing techniques such as split screens.

Video Structure:
We have decided to make our narrative and performance based as we want to tell a story as well as showcase star image.

Planning: Storyboard

Planning: Lighting and Colour

As a group we have decided on two videos to match our lighting and two videos to match our colour.


Lighting = Jhene Aiko


We will be using lighting similar to this on our star. She will be in a dark room with a torch light above her creating shadows.


Lighting =

For our collage girl we will be filming her walking on the street at night. We will be using lighting from street lamps and natural lighting.


Colour = We found love

 
For our scenes with our couple we will be using lighting that you would find in a house at night such as lamps, tv lighting ect.
  
 
Colour =   Rihanna ft Justin Timerlake - Rehab
 
 
Some of our shots will freeze and the colour will turn to black and white, for example in Kendrick Lamars verse when the couple are fighting.
