Ancillary Tasks and Music Video Mood Boards

This is my mood board for my Idea 1 music video and idea 3 Ancillary Tasks. The pictures I have chosen are mainly screenshots. The top right picture is a screenshot from the music video “Mine” by Taylor Swift. This picture gave me inspiration for my music idea as I liked the look of her singing with pictures of her narrative hanging down surrounding her. The picture below that is from the music video “Because of You” by Kelly Clarkson. This picture gave me inspiration as it shows the two characters arguing at the start of the video, which is a similar narrative to my chosen track. Then picture in the bottom right is from the Kelly Clarkson “Breakaway” album. I got inspiration from this picture as the main focus is the eye, which is also an idea for my digipak, also as the picture shows some hair it shows that the main narrative is based around a female. The picture next to that is a screenshot from Dido’s “White Flag”. The screenshot shows her lying on a bed looking at a picture of her ex lover, which gave me the idea of using a similar shot later on in the track for my music video. The picture above that is the album cover of “Riot” by Paramore. This album cover gave me inspiration as this album cover has Riot written all over the cover, and my digipak cover could have important words from the song all over the cover e.g. I Lied, Wide Eyed, etc. The final picture in the top right corner is another screenshot from “Tattoo” by Jordin Sparks. This gave me inspiration as it shows her “checking out” another man, which inspired me to use a similar shot to suggest the woman in my narrative has moved on from her ex.

This a mood board for idea 1 Ancillary tasks and idea 2 Music video. The picture in the top right corner is of the track list from “Pulse” by Pink Floyd. This gave me inspiration as for my digipak I could use the same technique and have the track list going round a picture of the eye in a circle. The picture below that is a screenshot from the music video “matters at all” by Kids in Glass Houses. This shot gave me inspiration as it showed me what a typical Indie location for a band is, which is a dark room, but also as the beat in the song builds up, the lights also got brighter. I like this idea as it shows that lighting is in time with the beat of the track. The picture in the bottom right corner is a screenshot from “Your love is a lie” by Simple Plan. This gave me inspiration as it shows that the man in the narrative is witnessing his girlfriend cheating on him, without her knowing, which is what the narrative of my song is based on as the characters have fallen out because he has cheated, which means I could use a similar shot to this but using the opposite genders. The picture next to that is the album cover of “Pulse”. This gave me inspiration as the picture is of an eye in CU view, which is what the music video is based around in the introduction, as for my music video we would show the band performing inside the eye. Using the eye as a picture on the cover would also mean that the album artwork will be associated with the name of the album “Wide Eyed”. The picture above that in the album cover is of “Riot” which gave my in the inspiration of using important words in the song for the background behind the eye. The final picture in the top left corner is a screenshot from “Misery Business” by Paramore, which inspired me as on the wall behind the band performing is the word Riot plastered all over it. This gave me the idea if using important words from the track and doing a similar thing with them.

This is a mood board for Idea 2 Ancillary Task and Idea 3 Music Video. The first picture in the top right corner is of an album cover by The Verve. This album gave me inspiration as it has a simple background, with just the band logo and album name, which gave me the idea of doing a similar thing with using the logo of the band as the main focus. The picture below that is a screen shot from “Hey There Delilah” by Plain White T’s. This gave me inspiration as it uses a screen showing multiple shots, which show both the band and the narrative at the same time. I liked this idea as it meant that the audience can keep following the narrative throughout the song, but the audience can see what the band look like when they are performing at the same time. The picture next to that is of the single cover from the same track. This gave me inspiration as it shows he main part of the narrative of the track, which is a women leaving, this is a very similar narrative to my track so I could use part of my narrative from the music video as the background of my digipak. The final picture is a screenshot from “You Belong With me” by Taylor Swift. This gave me inspiration as during this music video the two characters are having a conversation with cards through their windows and the last card to be held up is of her saying I love you to him, but he has already gone and turned away from the window. This gave me the idea of using a similar effect when he is trying to say sorry, I love you on card, but she has already left.
