planning for music video-cinematography & lighting

Cinematography

When we go out filming we have lots of different plans for our camera shots. Firstly, we will begin to establish our main character  and the plot of our narrative. In the introduction of the song we have medium and close up shots of the girl looking at the photos of her and her ex-boyfriend. She will have an upset facial expression to show how she feels. This introduces our character and shows that she is upset. We use close ups throughout of photographs etc, and the pair holding hands in the past to establish that they was once happy and that is what she is clinging to. At one point we are planning on having a high angle shot of the girl lead on the floor with the pictures surrounding her to show what her life revolves around. Also we are going to have a point of view shot of the girl putting a ripped up photograph back together. This is our way of trying to really show how she feels and what she longs for to the audience.

Lighting
The lighting which we intend on using will be bright natural lighting when showing the scenes from the past, however, when we are showing the girl feeling down and emotional, the lighting will be duller to reflect her feelings at this time. We are hoping to make a sort of 'film effect' once we have filmed all of our product and are planning on using colour grading on final cut express to make it look more professional.
