Planning Evaluation: Question 1
Conventions of Electropop:
- fast cut montage
- unique and bold
- concept, narrative based
- modern and bright
- light-hearted, relaxed atmosphere
- experimental
- use of bright colours
Stayed with conventions
- narrative based
- fast cut editing / montage
- unique and bold (menacing side)
- use of mine en scene: colour red to suggest personality, as well as makeup and accessories. Wanted to portray a character more interested in their appearance and conform to the "picture perfect" idea of electropop music videos and the performers within them.
Developed conventions
- modern
- experimental
Challenged conventions
- light hearted, relaxed
- bright colours
- used more saturated and plain colours to reflect the mood of our character, mise en scene: white, no accessories/bling, no makeup; positioning: shadows, creating darkness, reflecting "shadows and monsters"
