A Student Video Of 'Sweet Disposition' And How It Can Help Us

I have been looking on youtube at student projects of music videos to get idea's of what would work on lower quality camera's than the HD ones used for professional music videos. I have chosen this video of 'Sweet Disposition' because i really, really like this video although it is very complicated, especially for us as we have so little time, but i think there are elements of it we can use.



This shot of the slit screen is a really good idea, and we have spoken about using it in our video. In our video we are going to have Liv crying whilst lip syncing into a camera with a lot of make-up on which is running off her face or being smudged. We've also spoken about having a split screen and on the other half of Liv crying, have either Liv putting her make-up on, or a boy playing her ex boyfriend with the same shots as Liv- looking into camera, headshots, walking etc at the same time to see how he is responding to the break up.



We also like the idea of Liv reading a love letter from her ex boyfriend and getting angry/upset and then screwing it up/ripping it up, which is in this video. In this video i also like the idea that he has met a new girl and there is quick editing between shots of him with the main girl and time with his new girlfriend. I also LOVE the shot where the two are laying on bed together and the boy fades away leaving the girl alone.
