L02: Footage in the style & conventions of the chosen genre

This is the same style of genre I was aiming to have when the video was finished, not exactly the same throughout but I definitely took inspiration from certain clips like the grittier VHS side of clips in this short film. This short film was made for Archy Marshalls album 'A New Place 2 Drown' that he made in his house with his friends but mainly his brother. This was an electronic, alternative hip-hop album, the visuals sat perfectly with the music and meaning of the short film, having short interviews and clips of the artists surroundings and what he gets up to. It instantly gave me ideas and inspiration towards my short film and how I could take my own turn with it all.

The top clip is part of the short film by Archy Marshall and the bottom is my short film, this was my first part of inspiration while following the conventions of this genre, this footage instantly follows the style of this short film as the artist is being interviewed while not looking directly into the camera, he is constantly focused elsewhere with life, music and art constantly being on the artists mind even while being interviewed about it. This makes the artist look laid back and very cool in a way through not paying much attention.

This is another part of my short film where I have followed the style and conventions of my chosen genre, as simple as basic throwaway footage of nothing, this is just a short part of 'The Yellow Tape' where there is a few seconds of passing traffic which just shows the artists whereabouts and what they're up to in their spare time. Theres nothing to delve too deep into with meanings, its just as simple as having passing cars for a short segment of the film.
