We have chosen this song because the genre is still fairly unknown, yet gaining recognition. there is a lot of flexibility with this kind song so should be easier to film as we can stray from the storey board.
The song is also very interesting because it clashes two genres together in an inspiring and creative way, we want to emphasize this more in the music video with a use of many camera tricks and techniques, the difference between the two genres also means we can have a wide range of ideas which will suit some conventions of one genre whilst also breaking the conventions of the other genre.
This track includes no lyrics, but a heavy electronic sound with bass and the use of snare sounds. dubstep originated from garage and drum and bass in the early 2000's in south London so we have used this urban beginning to influence the music video and promo pack.
So far we have come up with a concept of a first person adventure through a city at night time. we are hoping to emphasize the lights, creating pulsating lights which move with the beats of the track. we also hope to wash the screen with colors almost like a visualizer and whilst all this goes on we want there to be a vague storey line of a night out, although it will be up to the viewer to piece together there ideas about what is happening on screen. The storey line isn't the most important aspect but we want to make the video visually pleasing .
We have used inspiration from the music video smack my bitch up by the prodigy.

This music video is very similar to the concept we have as it is a first person adventure through out a city with strange going ons and funny twists in plot.
The peep show also uses many techniques and camera angles we want to use.

The use of first person is a unique and not very used technique and for that reas it makes it very interesting and hopefully because its not style which is used often it will add a weird aspect to the film which will be interesting.
iTunes also has its own visualizer which creates swirling colors and images this has been a huge inspiration, we want to be able to have such special effects although there will be alot of work needed to make sure its an effective use of the inspiration.

Ron Fricke is an American film director who makes films which have scenes in the city and
feature camera tricks and no actual storey line they flow together to slow piano music to create a artistic and visually pleasing film we are hoping to use some of his camera tricks to make a visual experience which is in time to the music and also looks amazing.We are hoping to fuse our inspiration together in a original and unique way just like the artist has fused the heavy bass from the dubstep genre with the light and airy piano sound from the original piece by Elena Kats-Chernin
Both me and my partner will share the roles of camera man, actor and idea creator.
We hope to use camera,lighting and editing tricks to create a trippy and weird adventure which is interesting and visually pleasing
As well as creating a music video we are also creating a promo pack which will include a digipack and the advert for the digipack all three products will need to be linked together in the same theme as the music video. it is likely we will take the images for the print media whilst filming our video.
The lack of work evident here is a big concern at this stage and you there is not really enough for me to give you useful feedback. Look on Blackboard for the checklist of blogs that should be completed by now and get this up to date.
