"Triangle" Paul Morricone Creative Director of Poison Pen Films (2009)

A trip to the Bradford Media Museum

Poison Pen Films have recently worked on a whole bunch of videos for the likes of Funeral For A Friend, Fightstar, The Holloways, The Young Knives, Forward Russia, In Case Of Fire, The Charlatans, Graham Coxon, Nitin Sawhney, Chris Lake, The Pigeon Detectives, The Answer and Blackhole amongst others.There he spoke about the production of music videos and he uses the lyrics as a base idea for planning production. He also says that he doesnt go off typical genres, he also gave an example, "most rock music videos film within grave yards and have people dressed in black". (Paul at Poison Pen Films, 2009).

We found this lecture rather interesting to watch, he also showed us some music videos he has just recently filmed.

He also mentioned the 'triangle' which is an element consisted of three stages in order to create an effective music video you need to have 2 out of the 3. The stages are, time money and quality this is needed in order to create an effective music video.
