Our Silhouette Shot

When we were shooting at Canary Wharf on Sunday, we noticed there was an area that we felt had really good lighting, one way the lighting was really good here as compared to a shot filmed in doors we can see the difference in colour and in contrast which makes this shot better and more attracting. We also got very positive feedback towards this shot where many people have commented that this is a very good shot all because of the lighting and that is what we wanted to hear. We decided to use it for our close up/mid shot, as seen below:

After shooting this scene, Seun had an idea to use the same light for a silhouette shot. Keeping the song sped up, but dancing and moving in time with the song, against the silhouette shot, we felt would be a great idea. The shot came out amazing, and we cannot wait to edit it for the final product. Below are screenshots, and from research that we did on music videos we see that there are hardly any music videos with these sort of shorts which has gave us a advantage and different from others. Even though you don't regularly see these shots in a music video doesn't mean we can't include it but it works really well and it still fits in with being in a music video.
