I decided to go with this image for PANEL 1 because the song we used in our music video is called 'Rivers' and I have decided to name the album 'Rivers' also, therefore it complies to Goodwin's theory of linking Images to Lyrics. I got this idea from the song and also how Denuo used a similar technique on the panel of their album 'Wolf River' where the 'River' is clearly a prominent aspect as it is used as the background image.
Although the image of the river is a stunning and beautiful image I wanted to do something creatively different to it to add to the appeal of it to the audience that I would be targeting. After looking at the way James Owen Fender changed the colour cast on the album 'The Cloud' I thought I would use a similar technique to evoke the same feeling of dream-like fantasy in my own music video.
By turning the green leaves to purple it adds a depth of interest to the image and the colour cast also turns to the water slightly green, making it even more fantastical. Overall, the colours are much more simple, which applies to the genre conventions, but it also has much more interest because it is out of ordinary, which also seems to be something used in the Indie/Pop/Electro genres to make the audience question the images.
