Whilst watching the music channel on TV I came across the music video to Take Me To Church by Hozier, this gave me some ideas into how we can incorporate our narrative into our existing music video. The opening of Take Me To Church is a wide shot of a bonfire, the video then cuts to some shots of the narrative whilst cutting back to close up tilts of the bonfire throughout the opening to the video, this instantly gives the bonfire some significance and will stick in the viewers mind. As the video progresses and the narrative unravels we see the importance of the bonfire and it is used as the very last section of the video as the shocking element in the narrative.
By having the short cuts of the bonfire at the start of the video it makes the link to the bonfire in the narrative at the end a lot more important and seems to create even more of a shock to the viewer. We decided to try and create this effect by having shots of the pebbles near the start of our video and throughout, which made the connection to the narrative and the ending of the video.
