Influential Music Video

Mallory Knox - Ghost in the Mirror

This music video has helped to influence our music video, as it contains aspects we find appealing. The lighting is great, and useful for us. The music video is set in a simple setting that appears to be an abandoned warehouse that is poorly lit and grim, which can convey the band's emotions. I feel this setting sets the tone for the music video, and by trying to re-create this, we can affected what our audience feel before the music video get going.

The band performance is inspiring for us, as we need to make it as believable as possible. The guitarists move to the music, conveying their enthusiasm as they play. The lead singer also uses his performance space to keep the audience entertained. This we will have to copy to get a successful music video.

There is a basic narrative and more emphasis on the band's performance. This may be better for us, as we are trying to create an image in three minutes worth of footage, whilst the narrative will keep our audience entertained and help convey the emotions.
