Inspiration and Research

This is a video by Cajun Dance Party we got some of our ideas from this video such as running through a field and animation, however are animation isn't going to be the same or as extreme. This wouldn't be a very interesting video if it wasn't for the random animation, so we have taken this style and will use more random images to help make the video more appealing to the audience. Bright colours are also going to be a main feauture in our video and the animation is this video used bright images that are also happy and child like.
Seeing as the song we are doing is by Cajun Dance Party it is important that we looked at there videos and took notice of there style as we want to portray this in the video and make sure it is right to there genre style of music.



Since we have decided to not use animation in our video any more, as we don't think they are right. We still wanted to use things such as a flower, however real ones instead of animated ones. In beyonce's video she is pulling petal of a rose but it is in reverse order this is what we are thinking of doing, when Marianne is in the field and maybe with a daisy.This video also uses black and white. We may use this in our video for different effects as we want to focus on graphics as well as a narrative to make the video more interesting. Similar to Beyonce's video as there is clearly a narrative between her being a 'Broken Hearted Girl', which we see in the video and a male also features in the video, he isn't a artist but he supposed to be someone Beyonce knows and the storyline is about romance so it is quite important that a male is shown as this fits and emphasises the point of romance and love which is what the video is about.
Not only does she have the shot of her pulling petals of a rose, but in reverse order she also has petals falling from what looks like the sky as the shot fades out and in to another one. There are various settings and costume changes in this music video, although it is mainly set at a beach and Beyonce's costume is long or floaty dresses portraying her as feminine and stylish.
