Newer Video Research

You Me At Six - Gossip

The reason why i have gotten this video is because the lyrics are about something bad but then something that's looking upwards. another reason why i like this video is because it involves the initial idea i had of the characters having a fun time. this is good simply because i still want the element of fun to be in the video. 2 minutes 6 seconds in there is some really nice close up shots, which are similar to the type of close up shots i want to involve in the video.



You Me At Six - The Rumour

The reason why i have selected this video is because it has the element of realism, in terms of the lyrics, they reflect a teenagers life, just like the lyrics i have written for my song. i chose this song more for the lyrics rather than the actual video itself, which is why i have put a video on with just the lyrics.




Jojo - Too Little Too Late

The reason i like this video is because around 1 minute 30 it shows one character sad and alone whilst the other is with friends and having fun till he See's the phone call. this is the sort of the thing i want to include in my video, the idea that one is happy and one is sad.
The reason why i haven't embedded the video in this post is simply because the embed code is disabled at the min, so all i can do is leave you with the YouTube link ...

Avril Lavigne - I'm With You

around 40 seconds in you see a clip of Avril walking through the street, this is sort of what i want to achieve.
2.59 there is a shot of her leaving to go elsewhere, this is inspirational because of the way she looks in terms of her facial expression. The embedded code is also disabled within this video so again here is the link to the video...

Avril Lavigne - Happy Ending

this video is good because we see Avril as a punked up chick. which helps to represent her group choice. i like the way that the director of her video has represented her gothic background in terms of cloths, setting (when Avril is playing the guitar) and the black and white memory clips, they have a darker feel to them. also around the point 2 minutes 28 into the video we see Avril Lavigne fighting with her boyfriend. shoving him just like my characters will be in my video, also straight after this we see Avril running away towards her band who are playing on the roof, i want to also achieve this effect of Lexi fighting with her boyfriend and then she runs to band practice. i think Lexi running would be a better idea than her walking because it adds more drama and effect and emotion to the scene.
thankfully they haven't disabled the embed code!!! so here it is, one song that represents what i want to achieve in the video, more than any of the others.
