Through looking at other pincers uploads I have found lighting ideas that are effective and may not be hard to accomplish in my music video.

Inspirations - Gone Girl

In this post I am going to discuss how "Gone Girl" trailer has inspired me and what I can take from this film and use in my own media project. I am going to separate my inspirations into sub headings such as Mise en scene, Editing, Sound and camera angles.

Editing

This trailer uses a mixture of cuts and fades in order to transition from scene to scene in order for the viewer to grasp the concept of the film. This is to prevent giving away too much of what is occurring in the film. However, revealing enough so it sparks an interest to the viewers.

Camera angles, lighting and mise en scene

Gone Girl trailer uses different camera angles and lighting in order to portray the movies storyline.

An establishing shot is used in order to set the scene for the movie in order for the viewer to see the type of environment that the characters are familiar with. This is for the viewer to start making opinions about what may occur next in the movie. This establishing shot conveys to the audience that the characters are upper class due to their surroundings. The main characters have a lake outside of their house this feature is associated with wealth and can represent calm and tranquillity.  Natural sunset lighting is used to make the shot look as natural as possible. The orange/ red and colours in the sky could symbolise anger, rage and calm. This could be a representation of the quotation "the calm before the storm."

An extreme close up is shown of the main character (Amy) writing an entry in what appears to be a diary. This shot is shown by key lighting focusing on the page and the main characters hand. This scene emphasises to the reader that Amy is very sentimental due to her recording events that have occurred throughout her life.

An wide shot is used in the trailer which shows people gathering in a park holding candles. The only lighting that is used in this scene is coming from the candles that are being held by the characters. This conveys to the audience that maybe someone has died or is missing and the people in the park holding candles are paying respect to that individual.

I personally like the extreme close up of the diary because it is a simple shot but it is done very effectively and it emphasises the story line other than two characters talking about how they feel.
I also like the use of the candles because it makes the scene appear to be more realistic.

Possible Fonts

1, 5 & 7. 

These fonts communicator is that they all are bold. By the fonts being bold it stands out that draw attention to the reader. I would personally like to use a bold font in either by Magazine advert or Digipak. The bold lettering also creates tension and builds suspiciousion based on why the fonts look as they do and what correlation does it have to the rest of the Digipak or Magazine advert. I would consider using aspects of these fonts in my Magazine advert. 

2 & 3. 

These two fonts are very similar because they both have the same type of font. Personally I don't like this font because i think that it is to plain for a magazine advert or Digipak. I personally won't be considering these fonts for my Magazine advert or Digipak.  

4. 

Font 4 is very swirly and could be difficult to read for some of my audience. This could impact my magazine advert and Digipak negatively because it may result in people not wanting to purchase my album or magazine. On the other hand it may lead to people who didn't know about my work becoming more aware due to them liking how my Digipak and Magazine advert is set up. I wouldn't consider using this font in my Digipak or magazine advert. 

6. This font really interests me because it looks very disorientated. The reason why I think this font looks disorientated is because the letters are different shapes and sizes. I really like this font and would consider using it in my Digipak.
