Group Availability


This timetable shows our availability for this week. We will make a new one each week to show the times that we will be available to work together on the video and film.

Similar Genre Videos





The camera angles in this video are not common, and using shots similar to the slow moving angled ones that this video has would help to make our music video more interesting. Also, the lack of busy movement and sticking to simplicity may be a good contrast for some of our shots.



The vintage, vignette-style effect that this video has would be very interesting to include on some shots in our video to help create a more old fashioned style. This would also allow us to add B-Roll footage in our video, and this can help the audience to connect more with the band, therefore having an increased interest in them.



The performance by the band accompanied by the camera work really suits the fast pace of the song and the genre of it also. Incorporating a mix of quick-paced and slow motion sequences is very engaging.

James Bay Digipak Analysis


James Bay's digipak for his album, Chaos and the Calm, follows a very dark theme throughout and the colour black features heavily. This digipak is interesting because it uses imagery of hats. It is an interesting idea to use an object as the focus of the digipak.
