Music Video Ideas

1) Snow Patrol - 'An Olive Grove Facing The Sea'

  • Performance & Narrative with Abstract elements
  • SnorriCam?
  • Performance - someone playing guitar, close ups of guitar, unknown person - need sheet music so someone can play it
  • Narrative/Abstract - character walking around as if in dream (similar to idea in original music video)
  • Video made up of shots of character (snorricam) intercut with performance.

Creative Video Ideas

1) Parody of western-style shootout:

  • Rubber-band guns
  • Costumes? make them up from clothes already have or get stuff from costume shops?
  • Locations? Car parks? John Whitehead car park, a green area?
  • Shots similar to those used in stop motion lego project last year, etc
  • Slow motion shots of band leaving gun
  • Tracking shot to face as other character gets hit in the eye
  • Traditional shots/motifs but with parodied/comedic ending

Snorri-Cam Build

Designs for a possible snorricam construction for a music video which is part of my TECH1004 Assignment
I've taken the basic design from many other instructions posted on the internet, such as IndyMogul.
