Inspiration for storyboard - Lady gaga - MURDER

Subconciously and conciously, I had much inspiration for the story board I wrote with my friend Gemma at the beginning of the project. On further thought, I uncovered where the inspiration came from at the back of my mind. Here they are:


Lady Gaga - Paparazzi music video.

Within this video, there are quick take shots within others of dead women in different situations. They are all shown a few times, either consecutively or seperated by a shot or two of Lady Gaga, and in different shots; close-ups, long shots, high shots, low shots etc. I was shocked when I first saw this video, before any of this media started, and it made me remember the video. It was quirky, random and rather horrific. And what better for a trailer than shots that will be remembered? Seeing as that is the whole point of a trailer, to attract and be remembered, similiar shots would be perfect.













The take time of the shots of the dead women can be less than 1-2 seconds. The quickness of this has a greater impact as it is seen but not watched.
I took some screenshots of various parts of the 'dead scenes'. This way I would be able to look at the details in greater depth and to analyse the shots and why they were used.
