Preliminary exercise: Research and planning   1) State the  song  you have chosen for your preliminary exercise. Scars to your beautiful - Alessia Cara  2) Choose at least  three  music videos similar to your concept and watch a clip or more from each. Make  bullet-point notes  on everything you watch, commenting on camerawork, editing and mise-en-scene. Nobody Gets Me SZA  1. Camerawork The camerawork in "Nobody Gets Me" is quite distinct and adds to the intimate, raw nature of the song. Close-Up Shots : The video prominently uses close-ups of SZA, often holding these shots for extended periods. This creates a sense of intimacy and highlights her vulnerability, as viewers can see her facial expressions clearly, feeling her emotions deeply. Handheld Camera : The camera movements often have a handheld, slightly shaky quality. This style makes the video feel more organic and personal, emphasizing a sense of authenticity, like we are getting an unfiltered glimpse into SZA’s

The way I presented was confident and I had a good delivery. I used a reasonable amount of media language and talked about 2 theories. EBI: I had needed to do my more research on representations , shorten my information into bullet points and also find one more location place for my music video.  My presentation will lead to my actual coursework production and i think overall i need to change m lo

  Intuition by Sopiga cinematography/camerawork : composition, framing, BCU, CU, MS, LS, pan, tilt, tracking shot, zoom - The camera used was really clear so we could see everything clearly. The camera work was steady a lot of the time. Wide shot was used  a lot as well as some close ups. mise-en-scéne : clothing, props, gestures, facial expressions, sets, setting (CLAMPS) - It was a casual setting mostly at home. The facial expressions that were used were realistic making it it appealing to the audience since the actors were acting properly. lighting : key light, back light, filler light; underlighting, top lighting, back lighting; low-key/high-key lighting - Top lighting was used a lot as well as some lighting from the corners. Natural lighting from outside was used a lot from the sun. sound : diegetic/non-diegetic; on/off screen, sound bridge; parallel/contrapuntal sound, voiceover narration - The sound was really clear letting us hear it properly, there was diegetic sound used.  A

1) Research: music videos Music Video 1 : Gangsta Kelhani In the music video for "Gangsta" by Kehlani, the camerawork plays a crucial role in establishing the mood and enhancing the thematic elements. The video frequently uses close-up shots of Kehlani, creating an intimate connection with the viewer and emphasising her emotional vulnerability. The camera often moves slowly, matching the song's haunting and sultry tone , which deepens the sense of melancholy and intensity. Low-angle shots are employed to convey power and resilience, aligning with the lyrics' themes of strength and survival. The colour palette is muted, and the lighting is dim, with strategic highlights on Kehlani’s face, drawing focus to her expressions . Additionally, the use of shallow depth of field isolates Kehlani from the background , symbolizing her internal struggle and sense of isolation. Overall, the camerawork meticulously complements the song's emotional depth, amplifying its i
