Planning: Outline of a Narrative

Outline of a Narrative



This music video influenced us as a group to look at the way the male artist was represented in the music video and how we could be use star image in our music video. For our final idea our male artist will be very dosing and trippy showing that he is under the influence of substances where the female artist is his drug this is why this music video is the best music video to use for ideas for our final idea. The use of star image in this music video is used very well and it is used effectively and used in a variety of ways which could be very good for our final idea.



This song influenced our final Idea through the star Image of the female artist. As Goodwin theory states that star image motifs must occur in the music video as part of the 8 characteristics that make a music video in this video it occurs with the close up shots of the female's lips and body as well as the mid side shot of her dyed hair.  For our final idea , we are going to use a females actress an singer towards the end of the son in our music video. We want to present her image as a commodity what our target audience will be able to buy into.



Cashmere Cat- Wedding Bells:

Whilst analysis this music video, we focused on the structure that's being portrayed in this music video

Performance:

There is no performance present in this music video because there is no artist involved in the music video

Narrative: 
  • The narrative is about a relationship between the two male and female from the beginning to the end. Through ups and downs, they have never left each others side and in the end we see the female actor stood in front of the beach before a straight cut where the video ends.
  • We are looking forward to use some similar ideas from this video and adapt and change it to ours because we have the same kind of narrative about the relationship between two people. 
Concept:
  • This music video portrayed a mixture of narrative and concept. There are also relations between music and visuals within  this video such as when the two actors argue, the editing become faster with more straight cut and jump cut. The music is also played really fast to match up with the narrative.
  • Moreover the climax breaks down when all the fighting between the two have stopped. The editing become slower and the music became quite with just piano playing. 
  • The idea of two of two people when they are first met and when they spend time at places together are really effective through the use of micro-elements such as the setting being in the forest, shopping mall and the use of jump cut into nature image of birds flying away when they are making out and reach to the point of climax. From here, the pace of the music and the the editing gets faster.
Balance of 3:
  • The balance within this music video is very narrative based. However, after every 20 seconds we see some concept images of the nature such as the beach, the sky, birds showing then repeats throughout the song

  1. This post should be an outline of your narrative idea. Remember when we did the lyric analysis in class...?
    -identify the themes
    -what you will look to portray in your video?
