Video Inspiration
The reason I like this video is because of the filters applied to each bit of footage - the trippy colours alluding well to the title of the song; Marijuana.
This again is a piece which aims to mimic the feeling of smoking marijuana. The trippy backwards vocals mimicked by the slow motion editing. The regular jump cuts every 4 / 8 bars, juxtaposed with subtle zooming.
Once the music drops, the girls in the video are wearing masks. Masks and hidden identity is something I may want to explore in my video.
This video is comprised of 3 shots. The first of the boy in the video running towards the camera, with the sun rising gradually behind him.
The next shot; a birds eye view of him naked, lying in a groove in the floor, trying desperately to stay in the shade behind a rock.
And finally; the boy stands and faces into the sunlight - wind in his hair, crying and getting a nosebleed.
I like this video because it is so surreal. I also want my video to come across as dreamy, with odd abstract images blending together.
The paint in this video make it seem like an art piece - another thing I may want to try using.
The main problem with my concept, is that it may rely fairly heavily upon camera work. Being an amateur filmmaker, I do not have access to £3,000 cameras, so will have to make do with whatever I can get.
Marijuana and Egospect - although are high quality - aren't professional standard, as the first is made up of found footage, and the last relies on concept.
