Planning: Lighting and Colour

While planning for lighting and colour we have decided to look at the use of lighting in these music videos bellow. Lighting and colour help set a mood or feel for the set of your music video.



Lighting:


In 'Fire Ball' music video by Willow Smith, the use of back lighting and low-key lighting is very efficient in the street which gives a underground vibe to the music video. This inspires my group to use similar lighting and effects for our music video especially for our college girl female actress.






Top lighting
In Jhene's music video there's great use of top lighting which looks very effective in terms of glamorising her image in a way to make her look unique yet innocent. I plan to use similar lighting to present my artist in the same way hoping to achieve the same effects.










Colour:

The use of black and white lighting in Rhianna's music video featuring Justin Timberlake is very affective in terms of representing their relationship as dark, miserable and negative. This would be very beneficial to our music video as we do have a couple that are in the same situation. Therefore, the use of black and white lighting would help to highlight this very well as well as highlighting the problems they face.

Conclusion

Through researching into various music videos to search for the best use of lighting that would help our music video.

    Some good further evidence of planning here where you draw upon existing examples of videos that use lighting and colour well and state where and why you want to also apply these ideas. Good organisation of mise en scene.

    To improve;
    -another example of colour?
