Inspirations for music video.

This video is a Skins U.S trailer. The reason i have put this on my blog is because it is similar to the style of video i hope to achieve. The theme of this video is a teenage house party, it shows teenagers being wild with lots of alcohol, drugs and some slight sexual scenes. This is set up and represented by the use of costume, setting and the props. The reason I have chose to base my video on this trailer is because of the reverse effect that is used throughout. This starts with the effects of the party then actually in the party, to when the girl first leaves her own house to go to the party. After seeing this video i saw how good the reverse effect looks and helped me to decide that this is what i am going to use for my music video.

The video for Travie McCoy- we'll be alright, is another party themed music video. Although this shows people partying and standing with cups it doesn't actually show alcohol or any drugs which is a positive message to show. I like how this video starts with people pulling up outside of the house in cars then entering the party. In the party they have a lot of child like games going on, for example they have a pinata and a lot silly string everywhere. This creates the effect that although they are older and partying they still remain young and fun.

The video for Hadouken- liquid lives is all based underground. The things i like about this video is how the camera moves along with the people jumping up and down and also is placed on the neck of the guitar. It also has a lot of close ups on the singers face and looks as if the camera is placed on the end of the microphone. Another aspect of the video that i like is how at one point the underground room that the band and other people are partying goes dark apart from the U.V lights which alluminate the writing that is on the walls.

This is a promo advert for T4, i like the way it starts in the studio and goes through the night the presenters had back to them sitting in the house before they got ready to go out. The things i like about this advert is the way it has the reverse effect and moves smoothly to the music of the advert itself.
