[Planning] Music Video Warnings

In our music video, after re-watching it, we realised that we would need a warning at the start of the music video to warn people that there would be flashing images. Below are some examples of music videos that are seen as most known to have epilepsy warnings for flashing images and the likes.



One of the two music videos I watched for this was Battles music video; "Tonto" which was seen as being seizure inducing due to the lights that were used within the cave. They flashed quite a bit yet were used in a way to make it better - this seems tamer compared to the other music video I looked at.


In the second music video by Kanye West ft. Rihanna is "All of the Lights" which is seen as having a lot of bright lights and flashing images almost constantly along with the flashing text on the screen which is very off putting for this video. Despite the low tempo at the start and how peaceful it seems, that differs completely when you reach the main song where the two artists start singing. This is seen as needing the warning a lot more compared to Battles song.
