Target audiece response
The survey responses from the target audience of 16-25 year olds indicated that the song originally chosen ("What Now" by Rhianna) was not favored as it was described as an upbeat pop song with a distorted meaning. Option C from the survey was selected most frequently so the creator will look for a song fitting that description. To get further feedback, both the current song and a song like Option C will be presented to the target audience to see which they prefer. Most of the target audience enjoys staying active and socializing with friends, so a lighthearted song that can be represented in many ways would be suitable. The survey also showed that young males prefer dubstep and house music more so than the type of song represented
Question 2 media evaluation editied and good
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a main music video product with ancillary texts like a digipak and magazine advert. It aims to illustrate key themes of space, dreaming, and childishness throughout the products to provide continuity. Space is the most prominent theme, shown through a space background in the magazine. Childish props represent the artist's childish side. The music video uses effects to distinguish reality from dreams. Stylistic choices are meant to represent the artist's style and promote their unconventional electro-pop genre. Font, colors, and images are kept consistent between the magazine and digipak to convey a sense of being out of reality. Overall, the document argues that combining the products in this way creates
Photo analysis
The document discusses various tools used to edit an image in order to make the artist stand out more harshly. These tools include adjusting curve levels, choosing font colors and styles using the color palette and text tools, organizing layers for different fonts, precisely positioning text using the grab tool, zooming in for precise placement using the zoom tool, and warping text by rasterizing layers and using the warp tool.
Warp
The document describes experimenting with Photoshop's warp tool to distort text. It explains that the user right clicked on a text layer to rasterize the type and enable the warp tool. They then accessed the transform menu in the options bar to bring up a 3x3 grid, allowing them to warp the text in different ways. Clicking the checkmark above confirmed the changes and removed the grid, leaving the final warped text.
Research into lyrics
This song analyzes past relationships and suggests the singer is in control. She had a boy who she turned into a man and taught things to sexually. Now exes curse her name but still want attention. She finds new lovers in other places to make exes jealous. The exes will come running back to her because she is the best lover they will ever have, though the relationships never last. The song references past lovers in New Orleans and how seasons change relationships.

The story board helps the creative team plan out how to film the music video to match the lyrics and tone of the song.
Media proposal a2
This proposal outlines a music video for the song "Ex's and Oh's" by Elle King. It will tell the story of a woman feeling trapped by her insecurities and past relationships. There will be three locations: a studio for performance shots, a cemetery to represent her past haunting her, and an airport to show her desire to escape her problems by running away. A variety of camera angles, quick editing, and changes between low key, high key, and natural lighting will be used. Props like beer bottles, candles, pictures, and a suitcase will help convey the story and message of the song.
Mood boardx2
This mood board aims to convey the feelings of being trapped in one's thoughts and perceived differently than reality. The outside of the brain depicts happy colors representing society, while the inside shows dark colors for the character's melancholy thoughts. Images on the bottom of the brain, like shadowed faceless people and a girl in a red coat, portray feelings of being trapped and insecurities. The top part includes location ideas like an abandoned warehouse to create a chilling atmosphere, and close-up shots of the character are included to be crucial.
Costumes
The document discusses costume choices for a music video. It describes the first eight outfits as being mainly used in studio scenes to create a sense of time passing and show the character regularly performing. Dark colors like black, grey, and green were chosen to make the character seem mysterious. A white top and blue jeans represent a generic outfit used for airport and London scenes to portray wanting to be like others. The costumes aim to give an illusion the character has been performing for a long time to support the mini storyline about performing having both positive and negative impacts.
Email
I contacted Elle King's record label to ask permission to use her song in my group's music video for a class project.

Emil nava
Emil Nava comes from a family in the film industry and initially wanted to be an actor, but became interested in directing after visiting a music video set. He got his start in directing by helping established director Phil Griffin. Nava directed his first independent music video for his friend's band and has since directed over 60 videos for major pop artists like Ed Sheeran, Jessie J, and Calvin Harris. Some of his most acclaimed videos have won awards and hit #1 on the charts. Nava now directs 15+ videos per year and maintains an active online presence to connect with fans.
Ideas
Rihanna's music video "What Now" aims to raise awareness about mental health issues through a narrative following someone struggling with mental illness. It uses visual elements like erratic movements with strobe lights, shots underwater to depict suffocation from stress, reddish-brown tones to represent anger or flashbacks, and isolated forest shots from a bird's eye view to portray feelings of loneliness and vulnerability. Towards the end, shots show a young girl on the edge of a cliff in a long white dress that gets dirty, with close-ups of her distressed face and her submerging herself in water, to depict the extremes one may consider under intense stress.
Original song choice
1) The group initially considered several songs for their music video project, including songs by James Bay, Nancy Sinatra, Gabrielle Aplin, Rihanna, The Dixie Cups, and Taylor Swift.
2) They ultimately selected Rihanna's "What Now" because the versatile lyrics could raise awareness about any topic and the strong beat would create a dramatic video to engage audiences.
3) Although they liked songs by James Bay and Gabrielle Aplin for their messages, they determined the beats were not strong enough to achieve their dramatic effect.
Andrew goodwin’s theory
Andrew Goodwin created a theory identifying 7 key aspects that make a successful music video. These include: 1) A relationship between lyrics and visuals, 2) A narrative performance, 3) Star iconography with close-ups, 4) Voyeurism, 5) Intertextuality, 6) Technical elements, and 7) Genre conventions. Goodwin believed lyrics could illustrate, disjuncture from, amplify, or abstract from visuals. Narratives help audiences connect to artists. Iconography and close-ups make artists recognizable. Voyeurism uses intimacy and sexuality. Intertextuality references other works. Technical and genre aspects round out successful music videos.
Blank space evaluation
The document provides an in-depth analysis of visual shots and imagery in Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" music video. It analyzes themes of fairy tales, relationships, manipulation, and power dynamics. Key points made include:
1) The opening shots establish a fairy tale theme but also imply relationships are complex and not simple. Dark skies contradict the fairy tale aspect.
2) Taylor is depicted in positions of power and authority over her lovers through angles, surroundings, and costumes. However, the cycle of relationships shown suggests they are repetitive and she remains heartbroken.
3) Imagery like a poisoned apple imply Taylor has a dark side and tries to manipulate and control her partners. Shots analyze how
Conventions of a thriller.
The document outlines several key conventions of thriller films, including the use of dark colors and ominous music to set an atmospheric and suspenseful tone. It also discusses the importance of intriguing plots with unexpected twists to keep audiences engaged and guessing, as well as settings in realistic everyday locations that can heighten psychological fears. Maintaining a sense of mystery is also highlighted as crucial to preventing films from becoming predictable. The document concludes by noting many thriller storylines incorporate elements of technology and the supernatural to feature concepts outside of ordinary experience.
The meeting
1. The group discussed the characters, costumes, locations, editing software, storyline, and responsibilities for their thriller film project.
2. They decided on two characters - a teenage girl protagonist and a villain seen only briefly. Costumes were chosen to represent youth and danger.
3. Three locations were selected - a forest, field, and their school grounds - to show contrasting atmospheres and the loss of innocence.
4. The storyline involves a girl in witness protection whose serial killer brother escapes prison to get revenge, though they will only show hints through short shots rather than the full narrative.

Media analysis
The document analyzes the lighting and shadows in photographs that could imply meanings. It suggests that brighter lighting on one foot of a kidnapped person means the kidnapper's initial plan was careless, while darker lighting on the other foot means they don't care about consequences. Shadows around shoe areas are said to signal the kidnapper is dark and dangerous. The document also discusses how natural lighting in other photos could foreshadow danger and suffocation, and how shadows create a sense of the unknown, which is good for thrillers.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
