Music video structure ad synopsis Our music video will be structured in a way that shows different parts of London that relate to the lyrics. Our music video will open with a close up shot of our actor lip syncing the first few lyrics, the camera will then zoom out to reveal the background which will be an iconic place in London that will relate to the lyrics. Target audience Our target audience has quite a wide range as it will appeal to a wide range of people, due to the song being quite old people who are in their 40’s-50’s will recognise the song and be interested in the video. Also due to it having a slightly modern twist to it with our video it will attract a younger audience who will be introduced to the song. Locations required We will be filming in various locations around London such as Big Ben, London Bridge, Covent Garden and Oxford Street. We will be filming in these locations because we want to show off London and its different sights and attractions. Character profiles Our music video only contains one character and that will be a 17 year old boy who is exploring London and showing off the popular and well known sites around London. Filming style Our filming shots will mainly consist of shots such as panning, establishing and different variations of things such as mid shots and long shots. These shots will allow us to show the scenery in London while also showing the actor in the video lip syncing some of the lyrics. Any other information Some other information that will be relevant to our music video is that because it doesn’t have a story behind it the music video will be very simple yet effective as it will allow the people who are watching and listening to the video to focus on the music and lyrics instead of trying to work out what is going on in the video. |
