Inspiration!


Our inspiration towards our music video cam from the film FACTORY GIRL




Within the film their is a variety of shots between a handheld camera and a steady camera. The handheld camera gives and effect as if what is happening behind this camera is like a diary someone telling their life story between themself and a lens, it is also like a sense of memory creates flashbacks of someones life helping us to become more involved within the film and feel more emotion which is what we aime to achieve with our music video bringing people in and relating to them in a detailed way.

We have decided that within our video to gain this effect of emotion and involvement we are also going to use handheld and steady cameras, a way of sommunication and understanding of real life situations and realities.


we want to use the handheld camera to represents someones memory using the grainy texture also using the narrative to run through it whilst this is happening.

We also want to include shots where only part of the character is in the shot.

for example using close up shots just including the persons face and not all of their head to show clearer emotion creating the shot to be more personal and communicative as if the camera is the viewers eyes.

'Factory Girl' has its own independent filming techniques. It uses both handheld techniques for the grainy 'old' effects as if it's a memory (in our video the memory/thought could be the boys who are in love with the girl) and the steady hand camera for the narrative or the present.
