Lighting

We have watched this video in order to learn about the three different lights we are going to use in our music video. We have learnt from this how they work together and how, but using or not using them in different ways, it can create different moods and atmospheres in the shot and also how we can make shots look good and create a focus of attention.
Key Light: This is the main light of all three of them and it is always needed so the subject that is being pictured can be seen properly and it puts focus on the subject.
Fill Light: The fill light is on the other side of the subject shining light on them so fill in the shaded parts of it to make it fuller and can be seen properly and has a more natural light to it and makes it more realistic. This is sometimes turned off to create a more dramatic and moody kind of picture because it creates a shadow and makes the frame darker.
Hair Light: The hair light and a light down from above and makes the subject stand out a lot more and separates the outline of the subject from the background.

Panasonic V700 - Camera

"Panasonic's newly developed High Sensitivity Sensor portrays brightly lit scenes beautifully, and also captures dimly lit scenes with crisp, bright images and minimal noise. It produces stunning images in all kinds of situations, such as shooting indoors and at night. Because the pixels of this sensor are densely aligned, Intelligent Resolution Technology can be used when the Intelligent 46x Zoom exceeds the optical 21x zoom level, while maintaining the HD pixel count for high-powered zoom shots with incredible beauty."

Study Of A Director

Aitor Throup and the rock group Kasabian first met in Paris in the summer of 2010. The band, (formed in Leicester in 1997) and the designer were both invited to the French capital by Umbro, for an event to mark the reveal and launch of Throup’s England Away kit. Throup was already an admirer of the group’s music and approach, with their roots and understanding of tradition as prominent as their forward-thinking and at times experimental output. He instantly clicked with its members at the event, where all agreed to meet up again as soon as their schedules permitted. Over the course of the following autumn, the band and the designer met up repeatedly, and Kasabian’s songwriter and guitarist Sergio Pizzorno and Throup started plotting an approach to combine powerful visuals with the band’s following album (Velociraptor!).

Aitor Throup is in association with the band Kasabisan. He has directed some of their music videos such as 'eez-eh' and 'Switchblade Smiles', story boards them and also designs their art work for things such as posters and CD covers as he designed the 'Velociraptor!' album cover. We like the style of his ideas as they are sort of similar to ours and the band is also within the genre of our music video.

His most recent video that he directed is 'eez-eh' by Kasabian which involves the band in a studio for part of it and then in a ware house in another. We have taken part inspiration from this as it has two settings and because one is being a studio and another is a different dynamic place it is quite a similar style we are going for.
