2. As a group, we have decided to choose our own
songs that we would like to make a music video to
and then we will decide on the final song. We will
do this by all giving our opinion on what song
choice is best and what idea is best for the music
video. We will then get our class mates to vote on
the best ideas for the music video and song choice
and then we will decide our final song choice.
3. My song choice is Cascada – Evacuate the dance
floor.
I chose this song because it is very upbeat and
energetic and I think it would be enjoyable to make
a music video to. Also I think that it will not be too
hard to lip sync to and I think it would be
reasonable to edit and not to difficult to know
when to cut the video and not.
We would be able to get a few creative ideas for
this music video and then put all our ideas together
to make a successful and enjoyable music video.
4. The Pussy Cat dolls – Beep
This song was rejected because we felt that it was
not upbeat enough and that in some parts of the
song was too slow. We think that this isn’t the best
song choice to make a music video too.
Destiny Childs- Lose my Breath
This song was rejected because even thought it
was quite an upbeat song, it was too fast to lip
sync too and also we felt that it would be hard to
create as their music video for their song is very
popular and well known.
5. Our group originally decided that the song ‘Don’t
Know Why’ by SoundGirl was our final song choice.
However, after looking back at the video, we
decided we no longer wanted this to be our final
song choice because we felt it was too summery
and not upbeat enough. Also I don’t think we all
really liked the song as much as we did and so I
don’t think we would have enjoyed making it or
had as many creative ideas for the video.
6. I think that we should follow a range of styles to
make our music video unique and stand out. I think
the style should be narrative but performative and
concept based at the same time so that we have a
bit of each in the music video.
I think this will make it more fun and enjoyable to
make but at the same time challenging and
enjoyable to watch.
7. We’ve decided that we all want to be in the video
however we think that we should get other people
to be part of the video for the dancers and if none
of us want to be the lead singer then we will
audition someone to be the lead female singer.
We will also auditions boys for the male part of the
music video as their is a part where there is a male
rapping and singing.
We will audition people for all these roles and then
decide and make a final decision, the auditions will
be filmed on camera.
8. We do not have a firm idea of our music idea but we
have a few little ideas that we can expand on and get
our class mates views on and then finalise our idea.
I have an idea of creating a club atmosphere. At times
the music video will be performative, where it will still
have the club atmosphere and this will be created
through the lighting such as flashing lights, maybe
UV lights and through the clothing and make-up. At
other times the video will be narrative where you will
see the music video cut to a room full of people
dancing with again, flashing lights etc, with close
ups, long shots and panning of people.
We will also have scenes where the camera focuses
on people who are professionally dancing.
