Music Video / Image

AlunaGeorge - Attracting Flies

The lighting gives it a euphoric fairytale type effect. Montage of Modern day princesses/fairytales; Rapunzel, Red Riding Hood, Sleeping Beauty, Goldilocks. Low lighting during Red-Riding Hood etc. Shows a man with his dog in a car watching Red Riding Hood in low lighting. The man is the modern day wolf. Shows her as Repunzel letting her hair out of her castle (which is a pat farm symbolizing that she is numbing her senses till she finds her prince. Sitting with three burly men representing the three bears from Goldilocks. The story/plot seems like she's been let down by a lot of men who had big promises they could never keep. We see a shot of a man in all black and at night he finds a knife in a stone that he pulls out and they edit the video so that it zooms in on the knife (the sword in the stone). Using frontality to sing to the camera. Colorful lighting, but dark sets (Contrast) with a mixture of bright and dark colors. She has a pill (pea) under her mattresses, that's probably helping her get through the grieving process.
Delta Heavy - Get By

The images go to the beat of the music. The man is not in a good place, because he is killing all these innocent game pieces, like a monster. He's chopping up games because it's like chopping up music samples to create one fluid song. First person POV, looking down on the games, focusing on the sad faces to show that games have feelings to and brings the song to life. Each game moves to the music's rhythm. The story is bringing a bunch of music together to become a final product, almost like a hotdog. He's remaking the whole song by listening to his original copy, using a record player too. Games represent a different genre of music and he's combining them all together. Close up shot of the games faces to bring it to life. Focus on the game pieces being chopped up using animation to bring these inanimate objects to life. Framing to the shot to show that he's the creator. Mise en scene, creating a wood plank which is like the canvas for the music and the games are the samples he's chopping up. The pile of chopped up stuff games, to create one game. The original pile is his original idea and he is adding to it.  
Movie - Under The Skin

Reflecting off of herself, looking at her own image. Feeling tortured, try to feel human emotion through pain. Looking at her past and who she is as a person to try to gain that emotion.

Movie - The Godfather
Torn on a decision, guy is telling him to go to the dark-side, but isn't sure what to do. Rose over his heart symbolizing a good man. Their is still a small light in the darkness showing good person that's been turned bad. Look like they're playing a game, like poker. Can tell his attitude is confused, telling him to come closed, secrets, doesn't like what he is hearing or seeing. Lighting in the background is very bright, deep darks and lights.

Movie - The Dark Knight
Evil, hiding behind his jokes trying conceal his craziness. Focusing on his eyes, which are dark and full of pain and sorrow. Blood is covering the Joker card, meaning there is blood on his hands, he has killed many people.
