'Send My Love (To Your New Lover)' by Adele

Again another simple video in one location but it's Adele so it's great!

I really like the idea of all different movements of the same person at once and would be really interesting to see how it comes out if we was to do a taster of those kinds of shots.
It does confuse myself as well but it really captivates you and even simple music videos can work really well.

However, when I heard this live, I really liked the background screen whilst she was singing this song. With all letters and words scrolling across like she was sending a message, that would be quite cool to see how that would work over a white screen with someone lip syncing in front.
Also, her makeup is really simple as she normally has her eyeliner but this video doesn't have it so it's a very laid back video that can still be enjoyed by millions of people.

Here is the video

'Tears' by Clean Bandit

I saw this music video a couple of weeks ago and really liked a few of their ideas.

Given the fact they definitely had a bigger budget then we will but some look very easy to consolidate on.

I really enjoyed the powder colours coming out of their instruments. But if we had to use the colours (which I do like the idea of) I would use it in another way.
With that, the dancers coming together in the water was quite clever and if we was to do a performance video, I would recommend dancers in the first draft on our video ideas.

However, there was only one location the actual mise-en-scene was simple, especially the dancers but the nature (wind, fire and rain) was quite clever but I don't think we'll bringing fire into our video!!
