3. Song Choice and Artist
• Our song for the project ‘New Man’ by Ed
Sheeran.
• We chose this song as it is performed by an
English artist so it will be easier to lip synch.
• We also chose this song because it has a
narration shown throughout the song that
can make our music video more interesting.
4. Our Target Audience
• From research that we carried out on our
blogs, Ed Sheeran’s main target audience
are males and females between the ages of
15 - 30.
• Therefore our main target audience is the
same as we are trying to create a star image
similar to Ed Sheeran’s one.
5. Overview of Video
• The overall narrative of the song depicts a
man who’s ex-girlfriend has moved on with
another man.
• We show this in the video as Nathan plays the
‘New Man’, Tom plays the ex who is left
heartbroken and Issie plays the girl.
7. Star Image
• We have analysed the different star
images from this genre of music and
have come to a conclusion on how
we should present the star image of
our artist.
• All the artists to the right have a
similar kind of style that helps their
image as a star. This style includes;
casual clothing, acoustic guitar,
microphone and a laid back
personality.
• We can use all of these
characteristics with our artists star
image so the audience relates it to a
certain type of genre.
