Creative ideas and scheduling

Today in my media studies lesson, my group (Stacy & Saphia) and I discussed and listed our ideas for our music video. We tried to cover all the aspects we could think of including things such as editing techniques / camera shots.

Group ideas:

  • Song
Deliah - Insecure would be the song we are creating a music video for.
  • Actors
We thought of having Contemporary dancers from the performing arts department. We would be auditioning students who want to take part, we thought of having one male and one female dancer. This would help to portray the meaning of the lyrics in the song and help tell a story at the same time, but we would cut from the artist singing to the dancers and certain times. We also, thought about having the female contemporary dancer as the female artists singing in the music video so it would be showing as a flashback.

  • Props
At the opening of the song we can hear a piano being played so we decided to have the artist playing the piano whilst she is singing similarly to the artist Alicia Keys. We suggested the idea of a fan being used to have more effect on the artist.


  • Costumes
Plain black / dark colour Maxi dress or casual clothing such as jeans and a jumper.


  • Camera shots
Wide shot (location)
Ecu (artist eyes or fingers on the piano)
Close up (artists face or contemporary dancers face).


  • Similar music videos
Rihanna - Stay 
Rihanna - Diamonds
Beyonce - 1 + 1
Leona Lewis

  • Editing/effects
We thought of doing the music video in an Black and white effect or having the reverse effect.
