Iconography of our potential music video

For this image we wanted to recreate what is seen in a lot of indie pop music videos. we found that in a lot of these videos they have a lot of shots focusing of the shadow  cast of the model. In the videos themselves these shots help to create an atmosphere which usually reflects the tone of the song (which is usually slow and slightly ambient). 
 In this photograph we wanted to show portray height. Birdseye views, long and wide shot of high up locations is another common feature in indie pop videos. these shot are usually used to convey power and dominance and also to contribute to the narration of video. 
We thought this was a great shot showing the landscape of the city. the shot is often used to set the scene for the video this shot is called an establishing shot. the shot can also be used to portray the emotions of the lead character











We took some picture of what a common location an indie music video would have. it is common for them to include a dark, slightly derelict looking room (usually a bedroom). a location like this is usually used to convey some kind emotion by putting the main character in the environment it gives you a more in depth idea about the story the video is showing and a clearer understanding of the character. lighting will play an extremely important part in our music video and these picture give us a better understanding of  lighting techniques.
