  HOME | Arabella (wixsite.com) https://youtu.be/4Jksy9YVn-Y I'm really happy with the final product of my music video as well as my artists website. I worked hard on making my artist be represented as someone who is fighting against societies expectations. On the website this is portrayed through the organic theme in the photos, the artist is surrounded by nature and acts as though they are one. this is in keeping with her ideologies of women being best when they are natural and not living up to societies standards.

Mise-en-scene in my music video

Image
Props : pink makeup brushes and makeup powders, gold makeup brushes, camera, mirrors, bed, plants, roses, crown Lighting : natural lighting, high-key lighting, red lighting, fairy lights Costume : white top, black top Colour :  red, green, gold Location : little girl bedroom, bedroom, living room  The mise-en-scene in this video is the main way of moving the story along. the artists is clearly portrayed as the star  as he sits in an armchair and sings through the entire music video as the backgrounds changes. The lighting is very important for the contrast and cyclical structure of the video.
