Music video effects


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXpdmKELE1k         
This is a video by the Swedish House Mafia called save the world tonight. In the beginning of the music video it is all in slow motion as nothing important really happens. As the beat drops and the music is faster everything goes in fast forward, As there are some dramatic scenes the video generally has a low contrast to make it look dark and dangerous.

Where have you been by Rihanna has many effects throughout the video. It firstly uses mirroring to make the lighting and imagery more effective. There is a lot of camera shaking to make the chorography more dramatic and exciting. There is some split screening to have a mid shot of all the dancers then a close up of rihanna in the other screen.

Royalty free track -krestovsky flickering love

Indie-rock
The song has quite an upbeat yet relaxed tone. The lyrics are quite appropriate to the song, they represent love nut not in a mainstream way.
When listening to this song i can imagine it going with people going about their everyday lives maybe in a city scene.
elements i would include:
In some parts the band could be playing live but focusing mainly on other people in the video.
different stories depending on the person, easy to follow.

other ideas:
in the country side to match the relaxed tone of the song.
