Inspiration for my music video

Other than obviously taking inspiration from Rihanna's video Umbrella I have been looking for inspiration elsewhere and have found a lot of it in Beyonce's videos. I watched this video of 'Single Ladies' by Beyonce and I like the black and white video. I think it looks really effective and so I have decided to use black and white clips in my music video.


 
I have also watched Halo by Beyonce and at one point she is practicing a dance routine in a black leotard and tights, Beyonce is also wearing something similar throughout the Single ladies video. I liked this as a choice of oufit because it shows that she is a performer, particularly talented at dance. The video to her song Halo has a narrative aspect whereas Single Ladies is simply a dance routine. I want to do something similar to Single ladies by not having a narrative and just having it simply performance based, so I will have Rachel lip syncing a large percentage of the song to create the idea my protagonist is performing the song throughout the video. I also want to shoot her in point shoes showing her talent at dancing. Along with doing some jumps which show her ability again. Also whilst lip syncing I would like her to be mobile and dancing around to make the shots more interesting.
