Brighton Reccie Evaluation

On Tuesday the 22nd of September the class took a trip to Brighton to propose some shots which may inspire the groups to use in their real music video final project. As soon as we were introduced to the video cameras and equipment the knowledge that each member of the group learnt last year became apparent and we were soon familiarized with how things worked and how to treat the equipment in a safe and advanced manner.

Our group (group 10) began trying out a number of different shot types that we could potentially use in our final piece. We all found this process extremely helpful and it provided us with some useful ideas in making our boy band track successful. Shots such as POV shots, high angle, low angle, medium long shots, panning and establishing shots were used whilst in Brighton which gave us all specific ideas that we could use later on. All this camera work allowed each member of the group a chance to give their own input on what they would like to do when it comes down to creating our final piece. Everybody was bouncing off ideas for instance Jonny believed that it would be a good idea to have the sea in the background when it comes to our final piece. Mitch and I agreed with him because most of the scenes where the waves were rushing in the background panned out to be the more professional looking shots.

On the other hand after discussions with the group we feel that although Brighton was a challenging location for us as well as proving to be extremely inspirational, being the source of our ideas, we feel that the location isn’t quite what we are looking for to make our final music video something original and upbeat. JLS are a young urban boy band with an original feel to all their music, they have a lot of style in everything they do and we are setting ourselves a challenge as a group to make our music video as original as possible, making it look slick and stylish to have a successful outcome
