This was my group's completed music video. I personally liked the band "Monarchy" and their song, "You Don't Want to Dance With Me." This resulted in my group liking and also wanting to film a music video with this song. I put forward the ideas that it should involve some sort of sadness or madness, due to the song being about the separation of two people. This resulted in Georgie and Ellie being the main directors, filming wide-shots, close ups and extreme close ups of our actress showing emotive scenes which relate to the suggested themes. Ryan then became the main editor and as a group we chose the black and white colour scheme of the video to connote the actress's unhappiness. We also chose to cut out some lip syncing scenes as well in order to link the different scenes together as way of telling an emotional story which reflect each others. This is an example of how we applied Goodwin's conventions in our music video, since he believed that the lyrics and scenes of a music video link to each other.
By assisting directing, learning about camera shots and using Premiere Pro again, I believe I have learnt more valuable skills for my future project(s). I also got to learn and apply a theory, as I mentioned (which I hope I can use again) and hope to learn about more theories which I can use in the future.
