Music Video Workshop

In our second workshop for creation of music video, we were given a camera and told to re-create six iconic scenes from the video and make the video our own. Below I have embedded both the original and our take on it.

When creating our take on the original music video, we had to work with our surroundings and the objects we had because of this the video looks quite amateur, however with our chosen concept we made it work. In terms of the editing, we (dami, wallace, eddi) wanted it to be as sleek as possible in terms of the transactions and the objects used. Our main 'props' used within the video would be the CD, and a Skateboard. The reason behind, the CD was the main characters base whereby he hands out his music to passer-bys so he became our main character (wallace) We then had your every day "not interested" person who is constantly in a rush who didn't even have time to look at Wallace. This being (dami) which gives the audience that 'real feel' to the video. Filming in different locations, was quite tricky as we were limited to our college however we were able to find two unique spots which didn't look as if we were in college but more like a park. A perfect example of this would be the scene, that we are introduced to eddi. Eddi, is our skateboarder who has no specific role within the video but again to give the video it's authenticy as it has been used in the original. 

This is the original

This is our creation

In conclusion, I think the filming of the video went quite well and the concept did come together when all clips had been edited together.
