Sky hunt magazine feautre article
Sky Hunt is a rock band from Scandinavia that recently released their first full album called "Search" and embarked on their first tour also called "Search The Tour". The album was inspired by nature as the band members wrote songs while in forests in Sweden. They were interviewed about a photoshoot they did for a Dutch magazine called "Oor" and discussed the creative process behind their new album, with each band member contributing songs except their first amateur 4-song album.
The son
A wealthy man who lost his son in Vietnam displayed a portrait of his son above the mantle. After the man died, the portrait was the only item auctioned. It was met with anger by those hoping to bid on famous paintings in the man's collection. Despite bids to move past it, the auctioneer continued bidding on the portrait. Eventually, the longtime family gardener bid $10, inheriting the entire estate including the art collection. The story draws a parallel to God giving his son Jesus to die for humanity, with whoever accepts him inheriting eternal life.
Actors, costume and pops
The document provides casting details for the protagonist Tori Hazleton and actor Reuben Tyler-Wilkinson in a 1960s-inspired music video. Tori is described as a 16-year-old girl who connects with the target audience and is enthusiastic about retro pop music. Reuben is passionate about acting and was accepted to a prestigious drama school, demonstrating his talent and suitability for the role. Both actors have flexibility to attend rehearsals and filming given their ages and proximity to the production.

Cd Cover Montage
The document provides album cover analyses for several popular artists including Adele, Lily Allen, Arctic Monkeys, Just Jack, Oasis, Dizzee Rascal, and Amy Winehouse. Key details noted include Adele's simple cover showing her serious expression at age 19, Lily Allen's bright cartoon-like cover showing her unique attitude, and Arctic Monkeys' black and white retro cover portraying their careless attitude. Amy Winehouse's dark cover reflects the album's title of "Back to Black" with her lost and confused expression matching her 1950s-style retro music.

The document evaluates how a music video challenges conventions of the genre. The video blends a narrative storyline with musical performance shots, telling the story of an unhealthy relationship. It also uses a circular narrative structure that returns to the beginning. The evaluator aimed to create a sense of sympathy and portray emotion through the narrative, similar to other music videos. Close-ups are used both to sexualize the performer but also draw attention to important signs. The ancillary materials like the album ad and digipak incorporate conventions like reviews, fonts and imagery to look authentic. Overall, the work challenges conventions by blending elements but also aims to be realistic.
Treatment sheet
This document provides details on the music video treatment for the song "Whistle for the Choir" by the band The Fratellis. The concept involves a boy singing the song while walking through the streets of Newcastle, noticing a girl going about her daily routine. Though he watches her from a distance with romantic interest, the video aims to avoid a creepy stalker portrayal. Specific costume and prop ideas are outlined to represent the indie fashion of the characters. Shooting locations will include Newcastle with some home footage potentially needed. Close-ups, long shots, and jump cuts are identified as editing techniques to draw audience attention and interest.

Lana del ray
The album cover features Lana Del Rey in a vintage style, wearing a plain white collared shirt representative of wartime eras. While maintaining a vintage aesthetic, the background uses bright natural colors rather than black and white. The colors complement each other and the title "Born to Die" matches the sky blue. This incorporates both vintage and modern styles to appeal to Lana's genre as a pop artist. The cover keeps the text simple with Lana's name in bold across the top and the smaller title at the bottom above her shirt in the color scheme.

She also engages in overt product placement and borrows elements from other artists like Madonna while putting her own spin on them.

My Music Video Pitch

- The target audience for indie folk music is generally males aged 17-23 and females aged 13-25, as the genre is mellow and focuses on themes of love, heartbreak, and nature.

Pitch improve
The music video will tell a narrative story of a woman reminiscing about happier times on the beach in Spain with her boyfriend during the summer, in contrast to her current sadness after they have broken up. It will incorporate elements of both pop and indie music video conventions by including flashbacks, a home video effect, focus on the artist's singing and story over dancing, and filming in locations like a house, woods, beach and countryside. The song chosen was "Summertime Sadness" by Lana Del Rey to fit this narrative and blend of genres.

foals
The document provides an analysis of the music video for the song "Spanish Sahara" by the band Foals. It summarizes the plot of the dark and haunting music video, in which the lead singer pulls a bag out of the sea that appears to contain a body. The video then shows the singer looking at the camera while singing and standing in front of a fire. It concludes with the protagonist burning the body, contrasting the song's title by being filmed in snowy hills rather than a desert. The analysis praises the video for linking well to the lyrics while leaving room for interpretation, and notes it will influence but not directly emulate the conceptual and performance styles of the author's own upcoming music video.
Proposal
The proposal is for a music video for Ed Sheeran's song "Afire Love" created by Megan Sellar.

Key elements that will be used include filming entirely in black and white, using flashbacks to contrast past and present, and slow motion effects to match the song's melody and convey looking back in time.

The Demi Lovato video would be shot on a beach, featuring teens and young adults enjoying summer activities like ice cream and volleyball. It aims to entertain and promote Lovato's new album.
The Twenty One Pilots video would feature the lead singer in a simple, monochrome studio performance.

Proposal
The document proposes filming a music video for the song "Commander" by Kelly Rowland. The proposal summarizes that the song has an upbeat tempo making the lyrics easy to lip sync to.

- 1. 7621905-857250Connie Francis – Stupid Cupid<br />By Laura Norris<br />Background on the song<br />Stupid Cupid is a song written by Howard Greenfield and Neil Sedaka which became a hit for Connie Francis in 1958. The song is 2 minutes and 11 seconds in length.<br />7620000929640Greenfield and Sedaka visited Francis at her home to pitch their songs; after listening to a number of ballads - which both Francis and her visitor Bobby Darin felt were too sophisticated to appeal to the teen market - Francis asked if the songwriters had quot; something a little more livelyquot; and Greenfield asked Sedaka to play quot; Stupid Cupidquot; , an up-tempo number intended for The Shepherd Sisters. Greenfield dismissed Sedaka's objection that as a quot; classy ladyquot; Francis would be insulted to be pitched such a puerile song saying: quot; What have we got to lose, she hates everything we wrote, doesn't she? Play it already!quot; After hearing only a few lines Francis stated: “That's it! You guys got my next record!quot; .<br />The Music Video<br />-64770016986257620000118427594297516986254191000169862557435751698625My music video is based around the location and costumes, which are the most important features. I hope that I have achieved suitable costumes for the 50s and that the location is also suitable to the song. Lip syncing is also going to be an important part of my video because there is going to be lots of it. I hope that my music videos bright colours and different take on this coursework will keep viewers interested and drawn to the slight quirkiness. Also, I want viewers to enjoy the video and find it quite happy and upbeat. My shots aren’t going to be in any sort of order as of yet and the order will come in the editing stage when I’m putting the shots together with the music.I have permission to film at ‘Happy Daze Ice-cream Parlour’ and ‘Rainbow Photography Studio’. I want to film in the studio with a white backdrop but bring in colour using balloons and party flags and other props if I can get them. EG. Vintage deckchair, bucket and spade, cupids bow and arrow. – but these ideas aren’t finalised and will depend on the day.<br />
