Nina Beste - 'Night Night Baby'
Nina Beste's debut single is a funky, sexy jazz track with subtle hip hop influences to it.
The video needed to focus on Nina but incorporate elements of her backing band as well. It didnt need a complex storyline of any kind, it just needed to be a strong performance video.
Shot at Ealing Studios, the studio was set out like a cosy jazz club with rugs, lamps, tables and cushions dotted around the place. Nina sings in a sparkling red sequined dress (enhanced in the grade) whilst her band perform behind her.
We wanted to keep the shoot simple, mid paced tracking shots fit the vibe of the song and the carefully composed frames on the band members contain a number of things to catch your eye each time. We included drifting tight close ups on Nina as she sings, to compliment the intimate, romantic feel of the song and its lyrics.
A couple of small edit flourishes added to the hip hop feel - some shot flips, a few flashes, reverses and the addition of the soft focus glow to some shots on a certain lyric. We graded the video to enrichen the colours - for example, the red dress becomes deeper and the blacks become thicker.
