From looking at the different shot types used by the boy band we are going to be using, I found out that there are a huge amount of different shots which we need to take into account when making our own music video.
From the song ‘beat again’ by JLS most of the shots consisted of close ups of the band members faces, high and low angle shots of the band performing their dance routine as well as medium long shots and medium shots which shows their routine clearly. There are also occasions when the camera pans around the group showing them from different angles throughout. From looking at this music video it is evident that we have to be thinking about using a lot of shots letting the audience see facial expressions of each member in the boy band because this is commonly used in top music videos which are successful.
However when I had finished looking at this music video ‘beat again’ I decided to have a look at another song by JLS – ‘everybody in love’ (which is the song we are going to base our music video on). This video had a slight narrative to it unlike ‘beat again’ which was solely performance based. There were less shot types and the editing wasn’t as fast, in ‘everybody in love’ the shots were slowing giving the audience a chance to become familiar to what is going on and a story became apparent in the video.
