Choreography / Movement

For our music video we have planned to have a lot of movement, which varies from dancing, walking to slow motion running (we hope). We don't have any real dancing moments but if we find ourselves with a few extra seconds to fill we can easily use some dancing shots. Our music video doesn't really call for much movement and so planning it would be hard, if not impossible.

Creativity - Inspirations

Here are some of my inspirations for the music video:

The film inception inspired me to make the music video look more like a dream and have the camera at different angles to make the video more abstract.

The music artist Florence and the Machine is also an inspiration to me for the music video as her genre of music is the same as Sally J Johnson and the idea of Florence and the Machines music videos being similar is because of the animal masks being used and also her videos have a link to alice and wonderland which is what i want to link with my music video.

Another influence is the location of a woods and the area to be tight and full of trees, fallen logs and so on. The idea of the nightmare part of the video being in a location near a castle such as the image above.

As i said above, Alice in Wonderland is also another inspiration for the music video as the idea of the rabbit to be featured and for the main actor to be in a dream world such as Alice.
