Research into Filming Dance Scenes

When looking into other music videos using the same dance technique, we looked at the camera angels and the way the camera follows the dancers. One in particular is Sia -Elastic Heart with Shia LaBeouf, where the camera circulates around them, instead of waiting for them to move. This creates a more serious tone to the music video. Some of the ideas we have taken from this music video involving the movement of the camera and also the angles of which the dancers are filmed at also the amount of cuts to add pace to the music video. We have decided that when our chorus comes into our music video the number of cuts should increase, the add a fast pace atmosphere in order to match the music being sung.
