When thinking of ideas for our music video, we needed to have inspirations as without being hands on and making the video, we needed help to visualise our ideas.
Here are some people we thought of.
Panic!At the Disco do many similar music videos to what we are hoping to achieve as they also use a strong narrative. Their target audience is also similar to ours and the image and colours on album covers and in music videos is also alike to our ideas.
This is an album cover for Panic!At the Disco. The surrealism of the people and the idea behind it is similar to our impressionistic video.
In this video, the lead singer Brendon Urie acts as a ringleader and we see him singing the lyrics in character to fit in with the narrative. This is much like what we wanted our Mad Hatter to be like in our music video to Flyswatter.
Another artist/band that is similar to ours are Muse. Their music videos have the right mixture between a strong narrative and performance element which we want to contain in our video.
Here is one of their album covers for one of their more successful albums. Even here the band focus more on the narrative rather than the band's star image which is like ours. The band have strong narrative's as a lot of their inspiration is from space and the universe which is why they always have a strange twist in their videos.
The people that listen to all of these bands, are hopefully similar to our target audience as the genre is not all that different.
Panic! At the Disco are our main inspiration as they have very similar music videos to what we had imagined for us.
