Point 5: Chosen song

-




My chosen song is...

It is finally time to chose the song, that I am going to use for my NEA. It was a really easy choice for me, as I already have an idea for the music video and what it is about. I decided on "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers.
The reason why I chose this song, is really simple. Like I said before, I already have an idea for the music video, and because the song is about being broken because of another person and also its music video, it really fits with what I have in mind. As you can see, Lawrence reflected the topic heartbreak turning into madness really good in their music video and throughout the video the singer does not seem to stop being jealous. What I really like is the fact that he tries to tell him, it was only a kiss and nothing more. They illustrate the anger about wanting to be with someone, but knowing at the same time, that he cannot be mad because she does not belong to him.

*NEW* Point 7: Things to consider - what I want to include

 We got introduced to "Things to consider"  a few lessons ago and now we have to think about what three points we want to include in our music video.  In today's lesson, we talked about Enigma , which basically means that a lot of questions are open. For example David Guetta feat. Sia "Titanium": What happened at school? Where were his parents? and so on. Or, in other words: the whole music video is a mystery. Many unanswered questions, and maybe even do not make sense to some, but also leave a big space for the viewer's imagination. Example: The next thing to consider, that I want or need to include, is lighting. Lighting is going to be the main key to settling the mood for the music video and keeping the vocal point in focus. Lighting helps a lot to concentrate on the main part of a clip or scene and, like I said before, it can change the emotions throughout the scenes. A good example of that is Billie Eilish's "lovely" and "bad guy...

  Three videos and why I like them I researched the Artist "The Killers" and watched a few music videos from the past. For this task I am going to chose three videos that I like and state why they caught my interest.  The Killers - Human The reason why I like the music video for "Human" so much, is because they never left the colour scheme they went for. It was all gold, yellow-ish with black and white. Furthermore, I like the idea of putting short films about different animals in the video. It gives of a brave vibe.  The Killers - Smile like you mean it Another music video that I really like. It is especially the editing and camerawork that has caught my attention. The camera work makes it feel like a little movie, while the editing gives off a kind of supernatural style. Eventhough the editing does not really change throughout the video, they kept it interesting by making it messy and going wild with it, trying new things. The Killers - When you were young T...
