1. Time- 00.32
Long shot
This shot pans round the artist standing against the tree
for 12 seconds. This shot is long in time which
corresponds with the music as it is quite slow pace,
however it may be just a bit too long. To break the shot
up, a close up shot of the artist face could be used or a
high angle shot from the trees looking down on the artist
to make her seem vulnerable.
This shot would be better if a tri-pod was used to make
the movement a lot smooth and sharper.
I think this show could be used when the artist is lipsynching ‘I remember you said, Don't leave me here
alone’ as this shot clearly shows that she has been left
alone in an isolated place.
From our focus group, one of the comments made were
that she could visage the artist walking round woods.
Another comment was the artist being in a white dress
which we also hope to do however we do think this will
be too similar to the original video.

2. Time- 00.59
Wide shot
This is a wide shot of the artist appearing out of the trees
looking round to make sure its safe for her to stop hiding.
The lyrics which could be used here is ‘You and I'll be
safe and sound’ as she appears to be looking round to
ensure that she will be safe. The location remains
isolated and the wide shop clearly shows this as there
are no people around, just a building in the background. I
think it would have a better effect if the building was not
in the shot.
A mid shot could be used after this so we could see her
facial expression and the surroundings a bit clearer. A
point of view shot could also be used so the audience
feel like they are walking through the trees with her and
can also feel her fear.
From the focus group one comment made was that they
could imagine the character walking round a big, busy
city like London and although this shot does not relate to
a city location, we felt that the busy vibes would not go
with the pace of the slow song.

3. Time- 01.09
Long shot
This is a mid shot of the back of the character. From
this shot we can a large ,empty field, reiterating again,
that the character is isolated.
For this shot, we could use the lyrics ‘The sun is going
down’ . We could change the lighting so its sunset so
the audience can only see the silhouette of the artist.
This would also relate to the lyrics explicitly as the
artist we actually be watching the sun going down.

4. Time- 00.03
Wide shot
This wide shot allows the audience to see just how busy the location is. The way it is blurred also indicates that the
artist is feeling drowsy and confused about where she is or how she got there. It would have more effect if we were to
have just to exaggerate how crowded and closed in the artist actually is.
In terms of mise-en-scene, having Mothercare in the background is something we would not want in our real video and
we would need to think of a suitable location which is still crowded but also has relevance to the lyrics.
The ‘ooooh’ parts of the song would be good lyrics to use during this shot as it gives the effect of even more confusion
and the artist is so over whelmed that she cant get proper lyrics out.
Having the artist positioned in the centre of the camera with the crowds either walking in slow or fast motion (which is
chosen in this one) will reiterate the busyness.

5. Time- 00.18
long shot
Again the blurred effect works well the theme of our song and the narrative we are thinking of doing. It also hides
the location of the artist as we d not want it obvious it is being filmed in a super market. Having mainly just feet in
the shot makes the shot seem a lot more condensed and makes the audience feel closed in along side the artist.

6. Time- 01.00
High angle shot
This is a high angle shot of the artist leaving the busy location. From the shot we can see lots of bright street lights and
car lights, indicating it is a very busy place. In this location we could have reaction shots of the artist in distress as she
cant cope with the business.
During this shot, we could have the lyrics ‘Don't you dare look out your window, darling, Everything's on fire, The war
outside our door keeps raging on’, with the artist explicitly looking out of the window, the lights representing the fire
and the cars and people signifying the war. By using this we have the use of explicit and implicit meanings which allows
the story to be interpreted in different ways.
In the focus group, one of the volunteers gave us their idea on how they imagined the video without having seen it. He
said that he could imagine it in a busy location such as a city like London. I don’t think London as a location would have
the right feel for the genre of our song, however we can still take this idea but in a different aspect.

7. Time- 00.28
long shot
This is a long shot of silhouettes of trees being blown
around. This was be a good shot for when the pace picks
up in the song. This is because the narrative and the music
are becoming much more tense and the wind helps with
building this tension, however more wind would have had
a greater effect.
I like the use of silhouettes, however the shot needs to be
a lot wider so more trees can be seen to give a greater
effect. Also the light from the window, and props (bike)
need to be taken out to ensure what we want to portrayed
to the audience is actually being done. Props need to be
particular so the narrative is not confusing our audience.
The trees relate to when the artist was shown in the
outside location, suggesting although she is inside and
safe, she isn't too far away from being in danger.

8. Time- 01.00
shot
point of view
The point of view shot allows the audience to see what the
artist is seeing and almost put them in their shoes.
The lyrics which could be used here could be ‘Don't you dare
look out your window, darling’. This is because what she is
witnessing going on outside, she doesn’t want her loved one
to witness it as she’s trying to keep them safe.
When considering mise-en-scene, it needs to look less like an
average street and their needs to be something strange/
dangerous happening outside.
In between the point of view shots there should be close ups
of the artist, not only for star image but also for her reactions
as to what's happening outside her window. I would expect
these to be her upset, shocked and confused.

9. Time- 01.13
low angle shot
This is a low angle shot looking up at the artist who is
looking out of the window and is watching what is
happening outside. The low angle shot gives the effect
that she is no longer vulnerable as she has found a place
where she can be safe. This shot could be used alongside
the lyrics ‘No one can hurt you now’ as she feels no one
can whilst she is hiding inside as she feels secure and is no
longer vulnerable.
This low angle shot is quite far away from the artist so
some low angle close up shots could also be used so,
again, the audience can see the reactions from the artist.
From our focus group, one person said that in order to
make the video more interesting, it needs to be set in
various locations. By using an outdoor location with two
contrasting indoor locations successfully achieves this.
