Split Screen and Effects

The idea of using split screen very much appeals to our group. Particularly due to the indie rock genre of our song, we feel that the use of split screens and effects such as kaleidoscopes, would blend really well with the sound of the song. Furthermore spilt screens create the atmosphere that we want to achieve, such as quick transitions and a variety of locations contrasted against one another in the split screens.
When researching into the use of split screens, I found Mumford & Sons - 'Whispers in the dark' really interesting, as they used a four way split screen, rather than the usual use of a screen split in two. Personally, at some point in our music video I'd really like to include a four way split screen, particularly as there are four of us, therefore perhaps include each person within their own 'split' or perhaps use the different locations within the splits, just as its seen in Mumford and Sons





Crystal Fighters 'LA Calling' is definitely a music video that as a group we we will constantly refer to, due to the upbeat indie style of the video, as well as the kaleidoscope use which makes this a definite inspiration piece, furthermore the colour use is definitely the palette we hope to achieve
