For our Music Video, we chose "Radar" by Apollo on Fire. My role is Cinematographer so I will, of course, be responsible for DP duties and camera operator. Chris (Director) and I figured out a killer idea for our video (not only for shooting but we planned our shots so that we can create the video we envisioned) and then collaborated on the storyboards. Since we only have about seven minutes of film with the Super 8mm, we discovered ways to truly utilize the little footage that we have for the coverage we need. In post I will be doing special effects and compositing. Our video will contain some camera trickery which includes some camera movement (tracks, pans, etc) and we also have plans for things like matting in post. However, I do not want to give too much away because we really want to keep it a surprise! :D
Chris and I figured out how to come up with an incredible video but not being too complicated or over ambitious. Our aspirations are high, but not overly difficult to achieve. In the end, this tactic will (hopefully) work out in our favor!

I really enjoy "La Blogotheque" videos! They are just awesome and have a documentary feel to them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDqppyzjPYQ&feature=related
