Skins - influence - Sophie Bishop

This is the Skins series 3 trailer, the camera and editing in skis is always really attractive. It seems as Glue (another series I have analysed) has been influenced by skins, it also uses slow motion shots, and low key lighting. This is influencing the way we want our music video to look, surreal and trippy. The first long shot of the characters running from lighting to dark in a low angle is really exciting, and sets up mystery, which would be great to achieve in our music video. Also there is a lot of shallow focus sued in Skins, to focus attention on the subject matter. The colours used also also interesting, the red of means anger, which is a key theme and image in our music video, so we could some how incorporate this.
