Case study 1 - WUSYANAME - Tyler, The Creator
WUSYANAME by Tyler, The Creator is a performance based video that doesn't include the full length of the song however his performance and the way he dances and acts towards the lyrics is how i would want my main character to perform to the lyrics.
The mise-en-scene is also bright and very colourful which is the vibe that I want my video to have as part of my plan was to portray an 'idyllic teen summer'.
Case study 2 - Hell N Back - Bakar
Bakar's Hell N Back is quite a laid back performance video, but at the beginning there is a selection of clips where he isn't performing to the song but its a montage of clips of him just going about his life which is what I will do as the beginning of my video due to a lack of lyrics and I feel like it really sets the vibe and scene for the video.
Further into the video, there are also some transitions that I will use as inspiration for transitions in my video, for example when he's singing the same line of the song but it changes from the day and him on the beach to him in a car at night.
I also like the different mise-en-scene used in the video and I intend to use the beach but during the day and in summer rather than when it's grey and seems more wintery. I also like the scenes shot in the dark in the car with the red light and I will use that as inspiration for some of my scenes shot at night for my montage section.
Finally, similar to the WUSYANAME video he performs well to the lyrics and that is once again, how i would want my main character to act towards the camera with the lyrics.
Case study 3 - Fancy - Charli XCX & Iggy Azalea
Unlike this video, mine won’t be a reference to one specific film but there will be scenes that reference a number of different films such as Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Dirty Dancing and Pulp Fiction.
