We have chosen a song that is a pop ballad.So then i have decided to look at three pop Ballads for a little inspiration . These are :Someone like you by our chosen artist Adele http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQl3WQQoQ0&ob=av3e
Robbie Williams - Feel
and Beyonce - Listen
only for the impact but to keep in house-style with Adele way of working . This h
ouse-style of hers is carried out through her album cover as well .Even though Adeles vedio , someone like you is a good vedio , we will try do a lot more verious locations . Also we have noticed it is one one time line in one time frame , a continuous peace . We have decided that we cannot do that as we will be a little more creative with our timeline and events , w
e got this insiration for Beoncey's video for Listen .
I love the way she mixed performance and narrative and sows some strong bursts of emotions .This has inspired me to mix performance and narrative as i can clearly see that they do
combine very well when it comes to pop ballads , especially when a song like Turning tables has such a strong complex and pictorial story-line .Just like the song Listen Adele's s
ong has various bits where her voice is much stronger and emphasis as the emotion is getting across allot cleared therefore we will also use her video inspiration for her statement makeing moments.
I've also noticed close ups work well in ballads ,not only in Adele video but in Robbie William's es video feel witch is also a pretty legendary pop ballad .
What also inspired me by his video is a rotational movement in the camera along with some panning and tracking shots .Since the tile of my video is " Turning tables " i thought this same movement would be beneficial and relevant to my video .
Two shots are also very common in Beoncey's and Robbie Williams's video .And as they are both Pop ballads they have also planted the idea in my head that using an extra actor to act out the narrative of the story line could work quite well in subtle ways .However at the same time i will try not to capture the second characters face as much , because i believe if i did it would draw too much scene of importance to him and this is not about him its about her own experience and spin on the situation and who he is is irrelevant . i would like to leave the face placement to whoever the audience presive him to be as the her fans may be able to relate to it a little bit better .
They also both show flashback of past situations , to juxtaposition past and present situation to make it clear to the viewer what has transpired and the way things have changed .They can also be used to illustrate the lyrics and connect on a very direct level to what the artist is singing
about.In This case he is singing in sad times reminiscing over happy ones . Just like Adele is singing how the tables have turned yet in the beginning of the song she had stated ,"close enough to start a war" therefore implying things must have been pretty good before this has started happening .
In the end , the choice is ours to make . At the ending of the song she said "its time to say goodbye to turning tables , but the tabloids have previously said that they have been getting back together and splitting up .And As far as the saying turning tables goes , splitting up and breaking up go hand in hand so weather towords the end we show then splitting up and at the end they get back together , it would create the effect of a never ending story therefore the turning of the tables yet again .But for more meaning and dramatic effect we have decided the story-line to show a conclusion to their relationship .
