Inspiration for music video II

City Of God 
During the week, I watched the movie City Of God and a scene that stood out really illustrated perhaps another solution when coming to editing the shots of the party (in jumpcuts). Where one of the main hoods (Benny) is shot in a leaving party by a hitman who was aiming for his merciless friend who was arguing over a camera. Unluckily for Benny, he was the one who took the bullet instead of Lil Ze and this was due to the lights that flickered on and off when a song played impairing the hitman's vision. These lights is something I feel we can incorporate as not only are club lights a convention of Electro pop but it also allows the viewers to feel as if they are included in the party and creates a sense of realism. Maybe even fooling the audience into believing that we are in a club and not in a house, either way it should be fun to try out. The flashing lights scene commences at 01:05.
