Lighting and Colour


For our video, we have come up with the idea of having our main character be a stalker. One of the ideas to highlight this is to have some shots of him stalking the female characters social media on a laptop in a dark room. Here are some examples of our idea:

- To get shots like this we would need to film in a dark room. We would also need to use another light source such as a torch to help add  more light to the shot where we need it. These areas might be to show more of the laptop, or to highlight and make the character look more clear.
- Using shots like these would help connote the creepy stalker theme. This idea should be effective as it's not a common theme throughout the Indie Rock genre. My group have also discovered that our target audience like things to be original and not mainstream and already done.






One example of interesting lighting techniques would be this movie trailer for a film called "SE7EN". One lighting technique which would suit our music video is the flashing off lights between some of the shots. It reminds me of a camera flash. Using this technique might add more of a creepy stalker effect to our video.
