MUSIC VIDEOS
Ed Sheeran- Give Me Love- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOjdXSrtUxA
In the video, it features a young woman- shown below- whom is shown to very lonely and desiring to be 'loved' hence the lyrics 'give me love'. The video features her essentially 'pulling' out her wings from her body which give the look of an angel. She embarks on journeys with a bow and arrow that she created, where she 'shoots' to any two people who she believes should 'love' each other. However, her desperation to be loved herself unfortunately overrides her power and she unfortunately ends up 'shooting' herself which therefore concludes the video with her being surrounded by paramedics.
How this can help me with my own video
After watching a video like this from Ed Sheeran, this video has given me a lot of inspiration for my music video. Although this music has video effects that I may not be able to achieve due to the time I have to film and also my facilities at school, it has inspired me to film something unusual and that doesn't always mimic everything the lyrics are saying. This video especially by Ed Sheeran is unique in the fact that it does not follow what a 'typical' love story is, and infact embarks on a journey of an individual who helps other's to love each other, although desperate to be loved herself. The idea behind the angel/cupid theme is inspiring in the fact that it is a unique and symbolic idea of love and expresses the emotions of love in a different way which is interesting to watch for the audience.
