AUDIENCE FEEDBACK

Audience Feedback:

  In terms of audience we didn't receive much feedback except that we delivered good ideas in our pitch and the video ideas that we had, however we were also asked whether the two main characters would be the only ones being shown in the video our response was that we would include other participants alongside the two main characters. Moreover the audience understood the general theme  but not the narrative but in our response we mentioned that we would go along with the formation of the song and along with the lyrics, we would show how their love changes through time but also a montage of how it used to be using different shots.
The changes made was what we included in our location which was the idea of filming in a hotel to make the artist look as though they are in their room. Now we've changed it into shooting it in the artists house (room).

CREATIVE IDEAS


Summary:

This song is about a female who is deeply in love that she is lost in her own feelings about the guy she loves.  In the lyrics where its states that her love was “delusional” it explores the concept of unconditional love associated with a mental illness. She had a belief maybe better things would come, things she wished for but those things are so distant, almost human it's like she doesn't deserve for her dreams to happen like everyone else she lived in denial, denying this hopelessness she feels.. I think the promises she made and broke was for herself, her love didn't become better as she wished to be. so she has nothing left, feeling the cruelty of the world that could be one the reasons why she may feel as though she is no longer living in this world but lost in paradise. In order to adapt/show this in our video we would need ensure that we shoot in various areas that are not really surrounded by many people except from scenes we show her having fun with other people and her lover.
 
 

"Lost In Paradise" by Rihanna

How was I to know that my love was delusional?
Somebody tell me how to mend a broken-hearted soul
In love we all will fall but we fell a little harder
What am I supposed to do with this heart?

It may be wrong but it feels right to be lost in paradise

I'm so lost in paradise (lost in paradise)
If I open up my eyes
I can see the storm, I can see the sky
I can see the darkness, flashing lights
All my fears gone tonight
Let me stay, I'm lost in paradise

(Bass slap)

I'm so lost in paradise (lost in paradise)

What am I supposed to do with this heart? [3x]

It may be wrong but it feels right to be lost in paradise

I'm so lost in paradise (lost in paradise)
If I open up my eyes
I can see the storm, I can see the sky
I can see the darkness, flashing lights
All my fears gone tonight
Let me stay, I'm lost in paradise

I'm so lost in paradise (lost in paradise)
If I open up my eyes
I can see the storm, I can see the sky
I can see the darkness, flashing lights
All my fears gone tonight
Let me stay, I'm lost in paradise

CREATIVE IDEAS


In this lesson we started to discuss what we wanted to do for our production. My group decided that we would go for creating a music video instead of a short film. We then decided to brainstorm ideas of the genres that we could choose to develop into. Our top 3 best ideas of what genre we should go into were POP, R&B and Soul music, after having chosen these genres we began to look into the type of songs we could use for production. we found out that the songs were either to fast or we just didn't approve of how we could construct it to become a music video. This is when we started looking deeper into the genre of R&B and the different artists that were in this field. One group member looked more into the idea of using a female artist (Rihanna) whom performs in the field of R&B,  we all agreed to look into her music and the ones that have not been released yet and found a song we could use "Lost In Paradise"
