unit 29 assignment 2 ,music video idea

Rest of our life by Jason Derulo

The song is sang by Jason Derulo and its sang about him and his girl.

The music video will start off in a dance studio as auditions are being held by 4 judges from a big dance company. The male lead character that this music video is based on will enter the dance room but in that brief moment he'll cross paths with an attractive girl , her beauty will get his attention and he'll be forced to turn back and look at her as she walks away slowly. The judges will be surprised because all the other auditions were ballet dances and the dancer will be dressed to do a street dance performance, he'll be wearing Jordans, a hat some dancing joggers and other accessories. The judge on the left will say to him hi , how are you doing ......... focus on one thing and give it all your best, the male character will look back at the door and get a flash back of that mysterious girl's face as she looked at him and that will be his focus .


A medium shot of the 4 judges will be shown as the look at dancer then a quick cut to a low long shot of the dancer , the camera will zoom in to the dancer slowly then it will quickly zoom back out into a medium shot as the music starts playing. The music video will use 3 cameras that will be set up as a triangle so we have footage of the dancer from different angles.

During the performance there will be cuts to close ups shots of the judges as they react to the dancers moves and take notes, then quickly go back to the dancer dancing. The video will also contain close ups of the dancers feet to show the dancers footwork. Mid-close up shots of the dancer will show his facial expression and how energetic the performance will be, during the chorus there is a section where the song goes from being upbeat to a really rhythmic slow paste, the dancer will interpret that change of paste in the song by changing the dance style from a fast street dance freestyle to a body roll dance move from Barbados ( jason derulo is from the Caribbean) so the dance move will represent him, he also used to same body roll move in his video for the other side, but as soon as the song picks ups the paste the dancer will go back to street dance (body popping and choreography).

Every single time the chorus will be playing the camera will focus on just the dancer as it is the most uplifting sections of the song. the use of slow motion will be really effective simply because it will make the dancers moves look amazing. 360 camera movements will be made around the dancer to create tension just before the beat of the song drops and when it finally drops a medium shot of the dancer will be shown to show his dance movements and the emotions in his performance as he's mind is focusing on the mysterious girl.

The lyrics and the characters in the music video will add the narrative aspect on of the music video genre, the dancer will create lyrical interpretation moves as the choreography will match the lyrics of the song in different sections of the dance routine. The dance moves will interpret sections of the lyrics such as " touch your hair", "if i asked you to stay" "right here with me", the moves will match those lyrics .The song itself has a very happy vibe to it and the judges will feel the vibe and start feeding positive energy to the dancer.

This video will represent jason derulo because he is known as a dancer and he dances a lot in all his music videos











The dancers outfit will be quite urban to represent Jason Derulo therefore the dancer will have "swagg" as Jason Derulo would say.





The choreography will be very good to professional standard so will the freestyle and the choreography, it will contain a fusion between street dance and contemporary dance also native Caribbean dance.





This music video was inspired by both Step 1 and Step up 2 ,the use of the dance studio in both movies is what inspired the music video to be shot in a dance studio and the fact that both movies have judges as part of their characters is what inspired  the music video to have some judges in it.



The main lead character which is the dancer will be played by me as i am a dance and can choreograph the music video perfectly.
