Music Video Moodboard.






Our moodboard is representative of the theme we consequently want our video to emanate. By using an image of a clock, we drew the idea of using the prospect of time within our video, but in a subtle way that is hidden behind different meanings. This was taken from the Alice in Wonderland storyline, more specifically, the white rabbit, who's catchphrase is "I'm late...for a very important date!" We also used images from not only the modern versions of Alice in Wonderland, but also the more dated ones. This represents the vintage feel we want to achieve through the use of editing and effects - for example, using an old movie effect throughout. After a fair amount of discussion we have decided that our music video will consist of a girl running in woods, as though she is being chased, combined with the use of voyeuristic camera shots and angles, which will achieve the feeling of being watched that we want from our music video. We also plan to include some well known paparazzi shots of Hollywood stars from the 50's and 60's such as Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn in a flashing sequence, in order to make the implication of someone being chased by the media - which was a political issue inspired by our research into Banksy and his art. The use of the mask portrays the idea of mystery, which is something else that we plan to replicate in our video. We intend to do this by taking inspiration from our AS Opening To a Thriller, by repeating the idea of never seeing the main protagonist's face - by only being filmed from behind, only filming the legs or only filming 'Alice' from a distance, so her features are undefinable. This creates a real sense of mystery whereby the audience are held in suspense and want to find out more about her - therefore holding their attention throughout the video.
