Mise-En-Scene

The use of musical instruments in my Music Video will instantly appeal to fans of the Metal genre due to live performance being a 'staple' of Metal Music Video's. This will also help to battle the stereotype of teens being lazy. This is because my band (Ages 16-18) will be performing, and therefore, proving that teens can be talented. This is just one way in which my video will defy convention, and in turn, utilise a countertype. The video will represent both my band that will 'perform' this song (Fools For Kings), and the artist of the song, Rammstein, well. This is because it will fit well with the house style of Rammstein's Music Videos, due to the 'creepy' outlook of the video, as well as the hard- hitting performance aspects of the video. The genre will be clear through the mise en scene, such as the instruments, and the setting for the narrative aspect of the video. The mood created by the setting for the video should be tense, almost like a suspenseful horror like film. This will fit with the stereotypes of Metal well and represent its fans, because horror is a connotation of Metal music, and the two are often associated. The narrative in the video will be minimal, to fit with conventions of Metal Music Videos, and instead, the video will be significantly made up of performance elements; conforming to my genre.
