I then decided on
the look that I wanted for each of my artists and props which I may consider
using when filming. I decided on trying to combine each artists look upon both
genres, and the set style that I had chosen, 60’s vintage, and kept the props
to the minimum. When researching the set out for a performance, I looked upon
using a traditional microphone from the 60’s period. But it was unlikely to be
able to get hold of such a microphone, so instead I looked upon using a
traditional microphone from modern day. Doing research into Adult Contemporary and Pop, I have been
able to outline each look/style of artist within that genre. Adult contemporary
is very elegant and chic. Male artists wearing; grey, white or black suits,
Formal but sophisticated. Whereas the female artist are featured in long
gowns, evening dresses and cocktail dresses, an image and style which a lot of females
love to wear.
The hairstyles are also very smart and formal an ideal look
for my music video.
Pop on the other hand is completely different, and possibly
not the image I am looking to set my music video on. The clothing is very
bold, makes the artist standout for its genre, something which I am not looking for.
But perhaps I can merge both iconic styles
together?
One of the first thoughts that came to my mind was what
hairstyles could I have to separate each of my cast as their own
character?
I did some research into female artists ranging from the
60's, to modern day music.
Watching
my chosen music video 'Up', I considered to how the team had dressed both James
Morrison and Jessie J. Trying to link ideas I would like to carry through to
the production of my music video with the original.
Barbra Streisand- A very Iconic figure in modern day film and music industry. But she was in her prim of her career in the 60's. The images I collected portray her very elegant and mature 60's look. An image I am considering for a cast member.
Lana Del Rey- A artist from modern day music. Lana Del Rey is the only artist within my influential look that goes into the category genre-Pop. But I consider her look as a very innocent 60's look with the appropriate piggy-tails.
I would consider this for my narrative look, due to the character I would like to illustrate in my music video
.
LuLu- Another very influential artist from the 60's. As well as her career in music which started from a very young age, she dabbled in another art; film and television.
LuLu was highly complimented on her petite, sweet girls image. Perhaps another influential look I could illustrate my narrative in my video.
Marilyn Monroe- Was a tremendous star in the 60's. She was well known for her careers in music, the film industry as an actresses and producer and modeling. Her 'blonde bombshell' image drove the 60's area wild including her sensual style. A performance look which could illustrate both genres of my music video.
