No Rest By Dry the river

In this task we had to listen to No Rest and think what music video we would do for it. We then saw the lyrics and discussed how the we would make a video after seeing the video. We then saw the video and looked at what video they created.  We then as a class discussed what we would have done for the video.

My idea for the song.
My idea is that it is set outdoors. It has a camera tracking shot of the singer walking. Then in the slower parts there are walking in an empty black and white concert. Then during the more upbeat parts of the song it is in black and them performing to a crowd.

Other groups ideas.
One group had the video in a forest using a birds eye view. It started the group performing thoughout the video with rain at the end.

Another group has the setting slowly reveled their set of the Northern lights. Their than pan around to see the band. The speed of the video is the back drop is speeding up however the band stay at normal pace.

What I learnt about the connection of the lyrics and a music video.
 I learnt that the lyrics can be used to make some of the visuals in a music video. This could include the use of props in the video that realtate to the video. I also learnt from looking at the lyrics before the music video that you have to be creative to make the music video keep in time with the lyrics.
