PSYCROPTIC - Initiate.

After watching the video Initiate by PSYCROPTIC I really like some of the shots used. At the start of the video there are shots of creepy locations such as abandoned buildings, forests and empty spaces. This would fit extremely well with our track as it is a creepy track with the whispering, also with the track associated with murder and horror films this really set the mood for the music video. Interesting camera angles are also used for the shots, for example floor level shots which look really good. I will defiantly by using shots like this for my music video.




I also took note of the camera movement, the camera shakes in some of the shots and it looks distorted and weird, this matches the mood of the shots. The shots taken also build up and go from outside, through the building and into the room where the artist is. This builds up tension and I also really like it as this would fit with our murder narrative. We could have a number of establishing shots leading up to me in a building sat in corner like the artist in this video is doing. The emptiness of the shots also illustrates loneliness' and fits with the lyrics of 'I'm cold and I'm scared and alone'.

Overall I really like the build up to this video and think it would fit very well with the mood of our track. I will defiantly take some ideas from the video and implement them into my video.
