Filming A Montage of Clips

Today I started storyboarding for the montage of clips that will be included in my music video, below are some possible shots I wish to shoot and include in my music video when my group go to film the scenes for the urban setting.

I thought it would be a really good idea to pan across the houses of parliament but because it is so big I'm not sure that will be possible so I thought it would be easier to shoot a low angle panning upwards shot of Big Ben and then zoom in to The London Eye and pan downwards, By doing this the montage could include a range of continuity editing and this would create interesting transitions. The 'So Sweet Nothing' music video inspired me to think of this idea. 

I really liked the idea of filming St Pauls Cathedral from the end of Millennium Bridge because I like the positioning of the lines in the shot as they look appealing to the audience. In addition I really admire the dynamics of the lines as they look very interesting and I think shots like this are rather rare to find. I was also thinking about the signifier and signified idea and thought that St Pauls Cathedral could be a signifier like natures grave because it is quite old fashioned and specific to our genre, The singer in my video could be walking away from it towards the camera in the shot or she could be walking towards St Pauls Cathedral so it could represent the light at the end of the tunnel and the end of technology. 

I also like the composition of this frame and think it would be a good idea to include this in the montage as Tower Bridge is a big tourist attraction and could be considered as a part of iconography of Britain both in the 70s as well as now.
