Performance Shots // Projector Screen

Through out my music video I would like to show some cinematic techniques and ideas. I have come up with an idea that includes using a projector screen. 

I have taken inspiration from a variety photographers whose work includes the the technique of using a screen projector.

HOW WILL I USE THIS TECHNIQUE?

 After researching the works of these photographers I have been inspired to use this technique. I will be creating a short silent film. The film will present clips of famous iconic women, such as Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. The images of iconic women will represent the cross dressers inspiration. This will add emotion and character to the cross dresser, whilst also building a connection with the audience. This way I am including aspects of narrative and emotion whilst including performance shots. 

I will be using iMovie to create the short film. Once I have created the short film, I will then upload the file on to youtube and use the clip when shooting for my music video. I also think that using a projector screen would be a good idea for my digipack and poster, for my ancillary task. 

As you can see I am using iMovie to create the short film. iMovie is a flexible software, which enables me to experiment, with colour, saturation and cropping.
