Katy perry Roar

We watched the music video Katy Perrys music video "Roar" while watching this I made notes on this and split it into different categories in this post I will make these notes more readable in by typing it up and clearing a few of them up. Katy Perry says her style is "painting with broad strokes".

Setting Considerations: There where 2 main settings in this music video a jungle that they made in california and a cave they made out of foam. They used a place in california where a lot of trees are grown and made it out to look like a jungle and the second scene was the cave this was easy to move around as it was light because it was made out of foam.

Equipment: There was a lot of equipment used to produce this music video they had camera and lights on a dolly. Large lights where used to light up certain stages to make the production of the music video better. Sheets where also used to control shadow as well as less glare one of the last thing I noticed was the camera on the crane for the shot where she would swing across the vine.

Props: One of the main props used in the music video where the animals they had a monkey that would climb around on her. They also brought in a trained elephant that would spray water on her during the video for one of the final scenes in the music video they had Katy Perry face to face with a trained tiger the final animal where multiple tarantulas on her body.

CGI Post Production: One of the main CGI effects was when the boyfriends dragged away for this they tied a wire on him with a harness and dragged him onto a mat onto the scene and they later added a tiger using the CGI to make it look like the tiger has took him out and eaten him.

Costume and Make Up: The costume in this took a change from a normal style of Katy Perry before this she is going from a "cupcakes and sweet girl" to a strong independent woman. Another bit of makeup they did was the layers of foundation on her face with all this makeup they still had to do soft focus close ups on her to make sure you can not see  any blemishes.

Time Period: The filming took 3 days but there where problems with timing such as the elephants eating the scenery of the jungle.

Narrative: The story of this was a couple was in a plane crash the boyfriend starts going for a walk then getting eaten by a tiger. Katy then has to make friends with jungle animals to survive with friends such as a monkey and a elephant. At the end she then has a face off with the tiger and releases her inner tiger to prove she is the queen of the jungle.
