p.s. sorry about the blurriness of the video its the best quality i could get it at...hopefully you can still see whats going on!!

Hope you enjoyed my post and have of insight to what my music video is going to offer :)

A2 Media Studies-Experimental Filming

Experimental Filming

In my music video i strongly wanted to experiment with the variety of shots i have. One of the shots we experimented with was the fake 'Slap', this is a dramatic slap to the face, normally used by actors. This is used to prevent other actors from becoming harmed. I demonstrated it to me actors Francesca and Fin and they gave it a go this is the footage i got...

Hope you enjoyed my post :)

Water and Land Symbolism

In my music video i have shots of the sea and the beach. The sea and the land work together and can work against eachother, this is similar to a relationship. Therefore i wanted the water to symbolise Fin and the land to symbolise Francesca.We have the nice shots of the sea and land showing the shots of the sea and land coming together as one, this is similar to what would happen in a relationship. But there is also the more intense shots with the crashing of waves, representing how there can be more intense moments within a relationship. These shots are huge symbolism to my music video and therefore I wanted to make this symbolism crystal clear to the audeince so they are fully aware of whats going on.

Red Rose

Symbolism: My music video to 'Give Your Heart A Break' By Demi Lovato, is filmed mainly by the sea. I want the relationship between the characters to be shown as the relation of water meeting the land. Sometimes its smooth and calam and othertimes is hard and horrible. The Red rose is important because towards the end of my video, after the parting of the two characters they reunite. This shown with the red rose when its placed into a glass of water. It will be more clear when you have seen my music video!!
