Costume and prop research:

After analysing the props and costumes used within a very popular psychedelic music video, Tame Impala's "The Less I Know the Better". I took it upon myself to take a look at our brainstorming ideas and look at what aspects of the video would stay within the conventions of our chosen genre. Looking at the notes we had made previously I came across some ideas that would require some research before purchasing and using them in shots for our video.

Oil paint in water: Taking inspiration from the first three shots used in Tame Impala's "Feels Like We Only Go Backwards", using a deep glass dish and a variety of coloured oil paint we will aim to achieve similar shots to use as psychedelic elements to cut to throughout the video. 

Powder paint: Taking inspiration from the Madeon "The City" music video which uses powder paint as the main focus and plot of the video. The use of powder paint within the video links to the genre and the prop can be used in many different ways. Powder paint covering actors. hitting objects and exploding and smeered across floor and walls.

Neon face paint: Taking inspiration from the So Dang Dark music video. I looked at how neon glow in the dark face paint cab be used as an accessory in music videos and how from my research using a pitch black setting and this face paint the idea of lip syncing could be reinvented within the video and appraoched in a way that no other group may look into.
