Monday 29th November- Screen grabs and pictures

This is a screen grab from the final sequence. It shows the couple walking into the sunny distance and as the song comes to the end the footage fades out giving a sense of finality.


This screen grab shows one of the effects we used to transition into the flashback. This 'ripple dissolve' also gives a dreamy effect which could represent the couple in their own little world.


This is an example of one of the transitions we used. The transition moves the first shot downwards and drags the next shot into the screen. We used this so we had a variety of transitions for the viewer. This was inspired by Examples official video which used similar transitions.

This screen grab is taken from one of the flashback clips as part of the narrative. We think it is a good establishing shot that connotates the love scene. The low key lighting and sunset upholds the romantic theme.



This screen grab shows the fun of the couples relationship, and plays alongside the lyrics as Gabi falls down and reverses in time with the 'kick kick' in the lyrics of the song. The sequence shows the viewer a variety of locations.



This fountains sequence was very successful because we managed to capture the fountains rising in co-ordinated lines moving from the back, towards the camera. We sped up the footage so the fountains would rise in time with the beats of the music.



This footage was not part of the planned sequence, however when watching the footage back ready to put on the timeline, we discovered that it could actually be a good clip to put into one of the gaps we had near the end of our music video. It was successful because it adds a fun element to the sequence, and conveys typical banter between the couple, which makes it relate back to the target audience.



This is taken from the arndale steps sequence. We keep the first part at normal speed and then fast-forward it as the lyrics say 'down', then change it back to normal speed. It is successful because it is well framed and fits in with the music.



This screen grab is taken from one of the narrative sequences of the music video. It shows the couple enjoying a meal together, it appeals to the target audience because it could relate to their own experiences.




These shots make up a short stop motion sequence that appears twice in the video. The stop motion effect makes it look like the hearts are beating, which represents the feelings of the couple when they see each other, e.g when their hearts race.





This is another short stop motion sequence from the video. It is very successful because as the lyrics say 'fizzling out' the cake seems as if it is being eaten away.



This is another shot from one of the stop motion sequences. The stick people appear to be drawn on screen in time with the lyrics 'its the same old you, same old me'. The heart then appears to beat, which is also cut so it beats in time with the music.



This shot is also part of a stop motion sequence. Each letter appears one by one as if it is being written on screen. It is a successful sequence because it is fun and interesting and would appeal to our target audience.


This is another shot taken from one of the stop motion sequences. The sweets spin in time with the beats of the music. We chose these two love heart sweets because of the words 'Its love' and 'Love Bug' so they were relevant to the love theme. The use of sweets would also appeal to our target audience because they are most likely to be eaten by the agre group of the target audience, and they would think it was a quirky idea to incorporate the sweets into the video.
