This is an example of a video within our genre. I have chosen to include this because it contains 2 scenes; The narrative is made up with elements of stop motion (video camera and still camera) and the performance is purely filmed with a video camera. I think this is similar to the type of footage that we will aspire to produce.
During the performance scene a female, styled to the genre, appears and mimes the words to the music throughout the entire scene. She glances into the camera on occasions and to emphasize this a number of close ups and mid shots are used. To keep the scene interesting, on occasion the shot changes to a long shot or over the shoulder, but generally the shot variety is simple during this scene.
During the narrative scene there is no miming and the model is oblivious to the camera's presence. The female almost tells a story and her actions are made to fit with the music and lyrics. Stop motion is used within this scene as well as video elements.
The female is styled to represent the genre. Relevant mise en scene is used carefully. Studio lighting, a variety of outfits to suit the style, location, make up, expression and body language all play a big role within this genre.
