Researching establishing shots.

Paloma Faith- '30 Minute Love affair'. This is an extreme longshot as the whole of their bodies can be seen. I like the use of black and white as it makes the scene look mysterious. This is an establishing shot we could recreate for our video do to being an extreme longshot in an alleyway. Her costume is vintage which is reflective of her genre.

Paloma Faith- 'Only Love Can Hurt Like This'. This establishing shot is similar to the previous one by Paloma Faith. This is another extreme longshot as her whole body is on display. This shot would be harder for us to recreate as its raining which is something we wouldn't be able to do unless it was raining on our filming day.

Ella Henderson- 'Yours'.  I am influenced by this establishing shot as it is a reflection of a building through a puddle. I am really interested by the use of a shot through the reflection of a mirror or  puddle as I think it looks really effective. There is also the use of black and white which creates and emotional feel for the video.

Jess Glynne- 'Take Me Home' This is a side angle shot, the artist is in the centre of the frame. During this whole video Jess is naked which is showing her to be natural and vulnerable not like other females in the media. This song was released for children in need. The shot is dark creating an aery atmosphere over what is to come in the video. This is a shot we could recreate but its one that I think would not fit our genre.

Beyonce- 'Hold Up' I really like this establishing shot as I believe it is very abstract looking and is intriguing to why she is under.The artist is centre of the frame which I am finding quite conventional of a music video. However this shot will of taken alot of planning for health and safety reasons so this is something that we would not be able to create for our video, although this wouldn't fit our genre anyway.

Beyonce- 'Pretty Hurts' This is an establishing shot that I really like due to using a mirror for a reflection. The artist is to the right of the frame and is a close up/ head shot of Beyonce. This is an establishing shot we could recreate.
