Changes

Previously I was considering using artists such as James Blake and Tom Odell. However having not been happy with how my music video fits to both songs I had chosen, I decided to look for a different song. I have finally chosen the Indie-Folk band Daughter, using their song Smother. Having heard this song years ago I always felt it was quite subtly powerful and quite a thought-provoking emotional song. I have chosen this song because I think it fits well to the tone and shots that I have filmed. 
Here's the song below.

This change in song meant that I had change my previous thoughts for my website and DVD cover. 
I chose to have hands almost reaching laid on top of flowers to create and eerie effect. Using white paper to create a plain background, I placed a vase in the middle whilst my hands model knelt to give the effect that the hands were resting on the flowers. This also meant that I could take the photo from above. I then edited the photo in Instagram to black and white as I thought this would look more poignant. Then in paint I added the text which is a similar colour to my website design. Below is my image that I will use on the front of my website homepage and for the front cover of my DVD.


I think it's quite effective and fits with the mood of the song. I really like the filter I used as its more of a purple grey which creates a more vintage feel.
