Inspiration

Thinking about different shots and styles to incorporate in my music video has been difficult as you have to keep the audience interested. I have been inspired by a couple of shots from a couple of videos.

One inspiration was Cara Delevinge's 'Valentine's Day' video. To include similar shots like this would carry sexual connotations but I believe the flirty behaviour is fine for the target audience. I have filmed in a bedroom and end with Gracie crawling towards the camera and hope to put a fade out as the music fades too.

The below screen shot is a dance sequence used in Ariana Grande's music video, Baby I. As my genre is pop it is conventional to choreograph some movements which are catchy and easy to remember for the audience so they can learn it and join in. 

Another dance sequence is performed by Selena Gomez and her dancers on a YouTube channel, her dance is a little more sexual than I intend for mine but I want to make sure our dance is timed precisely and performed in unison like theirs - whilst having fun with it. They are shots of them afterwards singing along together which I have incorporated a short clip of the dancers singing along towards the end of my music video.
