Research: Locations in music videos





Looking at location ideas from existing music videos, has shown me that locations can be shown and made to be effective in different ways, with the use of different shots. 

For example the first shot shows a close up of the lead singer, but is being filmed in a studio. This could be something I would consider trying for my performance shots, as I think if done correctly it can work well with particular songs or genres. 
The second shot is a long shot which has allowed the location to be fully shown to the audience, and gives detail to the surroundings of the singer. 

I don't think that this is something that I would use in my own music video, as the story I want to use within my video, only posses particular characters. 
The final shot is a medium shot of the lead singer walking away from camera. This allows the audience to see the singers surroundings just how he is. I like the idea of using this as I think it can be more effective than using a point of view shot.

  1. Can you use any of these locations? Do they match lines of your lyrics?
