Inspiration/influences


Kanye West - "All of the lights"
From the video, the inspiration I took was the way colour was used in a strobe fashion. I wanted to incorporate this into my video all be it unconventional in a slow R&B song. I used this tutorial video to achieve this. As mentioned in my Pitch, I discussed how I wanted to juxtapose the greyscale with colour, I feel this is one way that I can achieve that.


The Weeknd - "Party Monster"
From this video, I liked the way it was edited to create a trippy vibe. I want to try a create this effective on a lesser scale which if executed properly can be effective; plus the music video is by the Weeknd who also created the song I am using which provides an opportunity to maintain the artistes brand/star image.


Lil Uzi Vert - "XO TOUR Llif3"
This video has a dark tone and the visuals reflect this. You can clearly identify substance use and the reflects the blur and distortion effects used in the video. I also like the filter colours on this clip and the way the purple colour palette was used.


Panic! At the Disco - "Don't threaten me with a good time"
From the video, I liked the fast and at times disjointed editing to imply drunken behaviour. I feel this, with a cantered angle on the camera would create an effective drunk representation. This videos colour filters I also liked because they helped to convey the tone. One example of this was when the colour scheme went from warm tones to cold ones as a women turns to a man who was sitting at the end of a bar.


Kendrick Lamar - "Humble"
From this video, I liked lots of the camera movements, editing techniques and effects. I decided to recreate the flicker affect seen in the video.

Evaluation marking

I liked George's first evaluation which clearly demonstrates a link between his own video and real videos of a similar genre. George...
