'Domino' lyrics


I'm feeling sexy and free
Like glitter's raining on me
You're like a shot of pure gold
I think I'm 'bout to explode

I can taste the tension like a cloud of smoke in the air
Now I'm breathing like I'm running cause you're taking me there
Don't you know...you spin me out of control

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
We can do this all night
Damn this love's skin tight
Baby come on
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Pull me like a bass drum
Sparkin' up a rhythm
Baby, come on!
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Rock my world into the sunlight
Make this dream the best I've ever known
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Every second is a highlight
When we touch don't ever let me go
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

You got me losing my mind
My heart beats out of time
I'm seeing Hollywood stars
You strum me like a guitar

I can taste the tension like a cloud of smoke in the air
Now I'm breathing like I'm running cause you're taking me there
Don't you know...you spin me out of control

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
We can do this all night
Damn this love's skin tight
Baby come on
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Pull me like a bass drum
Sparkin' up a rhythm
Baby, come on!
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Rock my world into the sunlight
Make this dream the best I've ever known
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Every second is a highlight
When we touch don't ever let me go
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Ooh baby baby got me feeling so right
Ooh baby baby dancing in the moonlight
Ooh baby baby got me feeling so right
Ooh baby baby dancing in the moonlight
Ooh baby baby got me feeling so right
Ooh baby baby dancing in the moonlight

Rock my world into the sunlight
Make this dream the best I've ever known
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Every second is a highlight
When we touch don't ever let me go
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Reckie

A reckie is when you take a look at different potential areas and sites for filming. It helps to know what the lighting would look like at in various locations and times along with the sound quality; noise control and what equipment they'll need to bring and where the electrical outlets are.

This the reckie of the locations we have decided to use for our music video which are the studio at our college the bus we will use and outside.

This is the reckie for the studio which we will be using to shoot our photo shoot the bridge of our song. the noise level in the studio is an ideal level with no disruptions meaning no interruptions when filming. The lighting is low and can be adjusted to whatever we wish. Only a HD camera will be needed for this location as there are light located there already.


This is the reckie for the bus for our opening scene. for the bus scene we could not take a light because there were no outlets as well as it being a area to film in but we were using a HD camera which had high key lighting ab effect that naturally brightens not so well lit area/locations. this was a handy and a very effective thing to have to hand.

In this image you can see the effectiveness of the high key lighting effect. It has helped brighten the image unlike the images shown previously.The bus was in a scheduled area where Mayday bus services keep all their coaches so it helped to film as there were no noises or movements to distort or disrupt the filming of the music video.

Our magazine advert idea

We must create a magazine advert to accompany the music video. We decided to an advert in Q magazine so we drew up some potential ideas. We chose to have the advert covered with an image of our or main person from her waist and up while holding in her hands the letters that spell out the word and title of our chosen song "Domino".
