Research and Planning: London Grammar - Nightcall



The style of this particular video and a few others by London Grammar is quite simple, dark and slow. The band is shown in a plain green field, which is quite dark and the soft key lighting centres the band:

The camera movement in this music video is smooth when it moves from one part to the next without any cuts:










Whilst the camera movements is still smooth and no cuts, it goes to a close-up of the band to show them performing:


When the camera moves to show the narrative of the story, it shows people, however they are frozen as they are not moving so it looks like a picture but whilst the camera is still moving:


The lighting is consistent throughout the video whilst also relating to the mood/tone of the video, as it is slow, dark and quite mellow. This is video is interesting as it has no cuts at all, it is filmed continuously. Therefore, as a group we can take these ideas and elements for inspiration of our own video.
