key concepts in our research and planning

The track we have chosen to use of the website jamendo, has a fast upbeat tempo, fitting the genre of dance/electronic music. The song choice took a lot of researching in order to find the song suitable for our video. This song choice fits perfectly into the genre we are aiming to create for our music video, the genre of our music represents the people attending and matches our location choice, as many dance videos are set in dark, dull environments using low key lighting. The audience we are aiming to attract will be a mixture of male and females ranging between the ages of 16-21 as some scenes may be unsuitable for younger children. Mise-en-scene plays a cruical part in our video as our props need to be suitable for our narrative, the girl in our video needs to be wearing a plain, white dress to represent her innocence, this should be evident to our audience. Lighting throughout the scene in the warehouse needs to be minimal (low key lighting) we researched many sites in order to find a strobe light to allow some light into the warehouse, in the end we settled on ebay and purchased one the next day. By adjusting the settings we were able to make it flash in different sequences to create a party atmosphere and match the tempo of our music. to be finished....
