Music Video Influences

Alicia Keys - No One

This music video has influenced the idea of having our performer playing the piano. A piano will fit perfectly in our music video as there is parts of our song in the beginning where a piano is played as part of the instrumental. The high angle shot of Alicia Keys in this video is also a shot we will consider using as it shows both the artist looking into the camera performing, as well as her playing the piano. The close up shots of her hands playing the piano is also a shot we will consider using as it will link both the song and video together. 

Delilah - Go 

This video by Delilah consists of plenty ideas we will consider using in our own music video. Her costume in particular would be the type of style we would consider using in our video for our female performer. In this video she wears a hoodie, a maxi chiffon skirt and a gold cross. This is the clothing our female performer (myself) will be wearing as it will appeal to our target audience as well as it being fitting to our night scene. 

The long shots of Delilah walking in the street from both behind and in front are shots we'll be using as shots like these enable the audience to see the performers outfit fully as well as her full performance. We will also be using shots in alleys similar to these. 

Wretch 32 - Don't Go

In this video by Wretch 32 who is a similar artists to Dee Banks, I've found influential the locations at Pontoon Dock. This is also a possible location we would consider using as it could look especially effective at night.
