In class, we looked at more different pop videos to gain any ideas and techniques we could use when filming our video. There were several which stood out to me, they were:
"Cry" by Godley and Creme
The concept of the music video was to get as many different people to sing the song in front of the camera to show how it doesn't matter where you come from around the world nor who you actually are as everyone can endure the same emotions. Its fasinating to watch aswell as Godley and Creme use the wiping technique which allows two faces at one stage to morph into each other to design a whole new face. This can be known as "Video Genetics"

"All Is Full of Love" by Bjork
The video is all about Bjorks love for someone and that love is all around you. Although Bjork plays the role of a robot, she can still feel certain emotions; love is something that you cannot be unwholly unfelt. The sounds in the music video were inspired by machines aswell. The visuals in the video also how really sensual Bjork music really is.
"Ray of Light" by Madonna
This video was a way of re-inventing herself and it simply shows a casual day in 4 minutes; which means fast fowarding everything in the background whilst having Madonna singing in the foreground. The techinque in doing this is called "Time-Lapse" and really goes with the fast speed of her music aswell.
"Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bob Dylan
It's so graphically simple but effective. The way Dylan throws away the lyrics as if he really doesn't care about it makes the video completely cool and casual. It only shows Dylans laidback nature alongside his folk genre music. The video is so inspirational, its been copied in other adverts and music videos too!
Also its allowed myself and Samantha to consider using black and white for our 60's/70's style music video!
"Window Licker"- Aphex Twin
It begins looking like a typical RnB music video but becomes very surreal when Richard D. James comes into the picture. He imitates Michael Jacksons dance rountine and style then has two women, who accompany him in the video, have their faces morph into James likeness. Unlike "Cry" where this technique is used, it just makes it more bizarre and extremely egotistical.
"Praise you"- Fatboy Slim
Its very much enjoyable to watch a music video in a television format. Everything seems more realistic and therefore with its mocking variety of dances, more humourous. The music goes really well with the speed and styles of dancing aswell.
