SHOT LIST: Final Ideas

LONG SHOT: We had a lot of long shots in our music video. This is because we wanted the viewers to know where the main setting is and what is mainly happening. We also made sure that our long shots arent just random shots but of settings and things that relates to our video. for e.g we had a long shot of the church in the begginning of our video because we wanted to let our viewers to know straight away where the first location is. In the end we have a long shot of Solomon raising his hands up high while hes in a roof of a building. We made sure that we get both our singer (Solomon) and the background in this shot because this emphasis the 'feel good factor' and also helps to create that certain joyous mood.

CLOSE-UP: We thought that this particular shot is very important in our music video so we made sure that we had plenty of it. In the beggning of the video we see Solomon sat down in a chair with the background plain black. We filmed this in the studio because it creates that certain effect. In these shots we made sure that most of them were close-up, because we wanted to make sure that our viewers clearly see him sing and to see that he put his heart and soul to the song. In the studio we also had mid-range shots because we wanted to see his actions as sometimes he raises his hands or leans back etc.

MID-SHOTS: Another shot that was important to us is the Mid-shot. Most of the times in the video Solomon and the other characters do a little or plenty of action for e.g raising there hands up, dancing etc. We wanted to let the viewers see the real feeling into the song as all of the our characters sing with their hearts. This is also to show that our character werent just lip syncing but to give the impression that we also plenty of joyful moments while filming this video and to achieve our main goal to 'get in the song'
