1. Tell me in no more than20 words, what is your
FMP idea?
Musicvideo for “Castles” by Lil Peep& Lil Tracy
Why have youdecided to makeit? I enjoy watchingthe duosmusicvideosand
listening to their music, I believe my strongest
section of my coursewas my initial musicvideo
andI have lots of notes andways to improve
since then, it will be a fun learning experience that
can hopefully give menan advantagelater onin
my working life.
What aboutyourproject makesit importantto
you?
Musicand the industry thatsurroundsitis my
passionandI love watching behindthe scenes for
big name musicvideos, I want to makea career of
workingwith artistsby promotingsongs,
designingart, brandingandfilming/directing the
videosfor them, this is valid andneeded
experience to obtainmy goals.
Outline someof the initial influences onyour
idea/work and somepotential research targets
(remember, research isn’t justa paperbased
activity)
An influence for my work is the indie home video
feel to most of peepsmusic vids, the alternative
style andoutcastfeeling that is given off by how
the artist dressesmatches the style of fashionthat
am a huge fan of. I’velookedthroughand
watched almostevery video officially released by
the artists andI’mworking my way throughthe
GBC collective the artists were/are in.
What effect do youwant to haveon your
audience when they see yourproject?
I want to inspire my audience and draw theminto
Lil peeps music. I hopeto be able tolink my own
video with the songin a way that makeseach part
synonyms. I wanttoradiate a fun mellow vibe
thatlets youfocus onthe childish enjoymentof
just listening to a songandthe indie feel of
recording a video with no planas just a spurof the
momentidea.
Describe the tone/mood/styleofyourproject
[which productiontechniques/characteristicsare
youemploying?]
The tone is a melancholy grey andthe moodis
rather upbeattalking aboutsuccess, love and
aspirations, thestyle is quite sassy fluent poem
with all the stylistic choices of early soundcloud
rap andemo rap. I believe the video shouldreflect
that, I want a poorer lighting with shotsat night
mixed with heavy dependence on red LED lights.

2. Why have youdecided to makeyour project in
this style?
I havechosen this stylebecause it’s a nostalgic
andstaple of the genera. The beginner feel and
genuine fun makingvideosseen in behind the
serene videos by the artists makesthe task of
recording seem less stressful. The atheistic of the
songand methodof recording go handin hand
with the homebrew camcorder record anything
style of video. All the artists at the time of this era
were poorer andstarting off their career with no
clue how todo anything.
