Main shots that we will use for our video/why:
1) Close ups: Face to reveal detail in expression (use to cut in). Also close up would be used to enhance body movement (possibly sexual parts to reinforce the sexual side of the dancehall genre)
2) Mid close-ups: This would be done by showing the subjects waist and above (shoulders, neck and face). This would be used in various parts in the video revealing costume as well as face
3)Mid shots: This would be used not to convey a message in the video, but simply because the media suit is too small to be taking long and mid long shots (because the back drop would be out of
frame).
Things I shall inform our cameraman (and myself)
Beware of Using Excessive Zoom:
It might look good whilst shooting and using a lot of zooms, however in the final edit zooming often looks cliche, and unless the footage is shot with a steady hand (or a tripod) it may look amateurish.
The use of different angles and perspectives:
This will be effective for our fairly fast paced video as straight cuts from different angles will make sections more exciting and up tempo.
