For our character in the music video we and to choose a mask design. When we were first deciding we were unsure of keeping the mask idea but after looking at a few designs we were able to come to a conclusion. We also asked people what they thought of the designs. This is so we could gather some audience feedback.
This is the first design we looked at we liked the idea it still showed some parts of the characters face giving some character however the people we asked said it reminded them of the guy fawkes mask and we didn't want to influence peoples perception to think the character is a vigilante or activist. 
This is the second mask we looked at we liked it for the same reason as the first but people again were influenced to believe the character was wearing the mask to hide there identity. half face mask tend to be commonly linked with criminal acts and we didn't want the viewer to believe that the character was an anarchist. We started to realise that we needed something neutral.
This is the mask we chose. We believed that completely taking away the identity of the individual would mean there are no influences to how the viewer perceives the character. Leaving things up for interpretation allow the audience to decide the own views without being influenced.
