Media awards videos

Media awards video:  The intuition by Sopiga was one my favourite productions shown in the media awards ceremony. I love the tension and suspense that she created by using the music as a form of intimidation and worry. It demonstrates how significant the music is in filming something. It can set the tone and atmosphere. Another project was the "The lurking cow" by Leila the sound that was non diagetic created fear and suspense to the audience. This lighting for the audience was also really important they used the natural lighting outside which isn't a bad idea but perhaps something more creative can be used. I like the close up of the faces. The facial expressions especially Those two videos stuck to me after a watch of the films Although many of them were really good at entertaining the audience.

Music video 2: Higher Power " is a song by British rock  band Cold play. In the music video we can see the insane use of VFX and powerful editing as we can see the main actor in casual clothing, no makeup and no props. However we see the setting as we get a sideways shot foll
