 D1: Discuss How the Meaning Was Created Through the Use of the Lighting and Camera Settings In this report, I will be explaining how we have creating meaning in our music video by using cinematic techniques.  We are creating a music video for the song Nightmare by the band Set It Off. This song is in the pop punk music genre so we are creating a music video to reflect this.        Here you can see some of the rushes for our music video. We created meaning in these videos.
