The National - Graceless

In The Nationals music video they have a lot of there scenes in a swimming pool which was a good way of drawing the attention of the audience, and we want to replicate this in out video by filming underwater.






In music videos you do have a fair few that now have just a black and white video, which in my opinion is an artistic view point at a music video, because you don't have vibrant colors to attract the viewers attention, you have to have a strong performance and a creative music video and The National have done a very good job in doing this.

There is a section of the music video where they have a spud gun and are shooting fruit of a tree stump, and they use slow motion when doing this as seen by the screen shot. We want to include some slow motion shots in our music video and we will take note on how its done by watching this music video as an example.
