I'm really interested in the use of water in my music video. I've already got key shots of my character walking round a fountain and walking up to a pond, and I want to develop further this idea.
'Drowning' is a series by French photographer Alban Grosdidier, which features several photographs of people under water. Some seem to accept their fate while other stuggle against the water. I really like this contrast of emotions within his photos.
I really like the idea being submerged under water and would like to try a similar thing with my female main character, both struggling and staying still like these two photographs from the series.
The XX's video Chained, is a an amazing example of how water can be used in a music video effectively.
The idea of being totally encompassed by water is something that I would really like to play around with in my video.
The colour treatment in the video creates a cool almost distant vibe as the blues enhance the vibe. I also really like the strobes of colour, as can be seen in the photo below, as it creates a edgy effect.
My next step is to start experimenting with under water shots and sequences.
