Breakerz - Rusty Hearts (Music Video Reference)

In this post, I will be discussing some music videos we will take reference and inspiration from.

The first one is a Visual Kei Japanese Rock Band “Breakerz” and their song is titled as “Rusty Hearts”. Rusty Hearts is based on a free-to-play MMORPG video game developed by Stairway Games and published by Windysoft in Korea, Perfect World Entertainment in North America, Sega in Japan and Xunlei Games in China.

The storyline is about the Bartbarod in which the Royal family maintained a pure bloodline until a genetic mutation nearly wiped them out and gave rise to a new race of mutants called vampires. They in turn gave rise to new race of half-breeds, causing the pure-blooded vampires to grow wary. The ruler of the Vampires at this time, Lord Vlad, decided that he would eliminate the impurities that threatened the existence of his people and declared war against humans and half-breeds alike.

Two shot of the actress and singer

The lighting shows pureness and innocence which contrasts with the next photo in which they used special effects to shows her transformation. 



In these two photos, the artist shows his regret for transforming his beloved.

We will incorporate the theme of this music video to our own project. We will also use the same kind of lighting using ambient and low key lighting to show the contrast between innocence and the aftermath of the transformation.
