Kings Of Leon video Research

Sex On Fire-
Camera shots- 186(averege)
Most common shot(s)- Extreme/ close-up
The video had no real story behind it it was mainly showing the band especially the singer at the front. The singer was also videod in some shots where he is lying down- has bit of story to it. The camera shots followed the beat of the music.

Use Somebody-
Camera Shots- 189 (averege)
Most common shot- Birds eye view and extreme/ close ups
The video comlpetly followed the beat of the music. Most of the shots again were of the singer and they were on him for a longer length of time at once then any other shot.

Radioactive-
Camera shots- 169(averege)
Most common shot- Mid shot, low angle
In comparison to the other two videos this one does follow the beat of the music but not as clearly as the other two. Again it is mainly of the singer however not of the band playing instruments.

Final Shot list - Amy Kong

meeting - Amy Kong

Met up at break time and booked out the cameras and tripod that are needed for filming.

Choosing the band-Emma

The reason we chose the band is because we know them as they go to our college and get on well with them. Due to this we feel tht the band will be easy to work with and communication will not be a problem with them as we see them at college often. We have asked to use one of the songs that they have already written so that they do not have to write any new material for us.
  Another reason for working with them is that as a group we decidede to film a band that fitted in with the 'indie' genre and they are a typical indie band.
  One difficultly that we do have to face with the band is the fact that they do not have a singer anymore so we will need to find a suitabe person to work with the band and record the song.
  On the other hand, we are looking forward to working with them; hoping it will be a good experience and run smoothly.
