This picture influenced our film production, as we came across it by accident but found it interesting and different. We wanted to incorporate the bright colours and eccentric style within our music video to make it unusual. Luckily, we could use the colours to represent Mariella's personality and due to the time we filmed the colour of the grass was still a bright green as it was at the end of summer, this became a strong advantage for us filming early.
We wanted to recreate this image in a modern way. Here, we decided to use teddy bears as part of a tea party setting to show her real age against her maturity age, this was based on the image shown above from a children's novel. This strongly influenced our choices and inspired us to create different modern scenes.
This video inspired us as it features Disney characters in a modern video, it puts a unique spin on a children's novel. The artists lyrics itself also show how she is a mature woman but singing about children's novels. Her video is based around love and fighting, with a overall theme of relationships which is different to our music video. However, this has given us some inspiration about how we can present Mariella as a child, and influenced our video as it shows how a music video can be made different to what is typically expected.
This music video is a influence as it fits the musical genre of 'pop' that we are using in our music video, with a narrative throughout. This makes the music video more interesting throughout, as it interacts with the performance aspect of the video and creates enigma as the audience want to know what happens next. It also includes the artist instead of actors throughout the video, even in areas which aren't performance. This video is popular as it shows Katy Perry as a teenager, and the video represents this as it is not serious, with bold colours used and aspects of comedy in the video.
This video genre is also pop, therefore in this video we looked at the idea of using a variety of different locations. Ellie Goulding's video 'the writer' is focused mainly on performance instead of narrative, she has used a variety of locations, such as a blank backdrop, a field and stairs. In this particular video it always goes back to Ellie Goulding performing against a white backdrop, suggesting this is the main focus for the video. They have also used the same location in different ways, for example Ellie Goulding is walking through a field then the audience see a lighthouse, however it is in the same place. This creates an unexpected change for the audience keeping them interested.
In this video, a variety of shots are used from mid-shots to aerial shots there are also close ups and long takes. This will keep the audience interested as they are seeing the artist in a variety of shots and angles.
I was also inspired by the personality of Lady Gaga, a famous artist from America. She shows her personality through her outfit choices, as you can see from the pictures above she can dress in a simple fashion with blacks and whites, or use bold colours and props such as the bright blue dress and teddy bear key rings. This could also be representational of her mood. With our music video Kate Nash - Mariella she is shy at school and goes back to a childlike state of immaturity when she is at home, we therefore decided this could be shown through her behaviour as part of the narrative, and costume.
