The Shortlisted Songs..

We have worked our choices down to these three songs, and have good ideas behind the three;

1)

Advantages;

- We have a good idea behind the song, that will allow us to experiment with camera angles.

- A good strong beat to edit to.

Disadvantages;

- We will need many people in the video, which could be hard to organise

- We would need a commited group of people to be the 'band', meaning they would have to be ready to come out and film even if we just need a few more shots.

- The idea we have may become boring throughout the music video, it would be very hard to keep the audience interested.

2)

Advantages;

- The narrative lyrics allow us to be more creative around the story.

- The beat of the song allows different lengths of a shot to be edited, for example some longer shots and some shorter, sharper shots.

- One woman singer, which would mean one of our group will be able to star in it, so we could get shots and film more a lot easier.

Disadvantages;

- Filming a narrative would mean a lot more filing and sharper editing.

3)

This song we did not really come up with an idea for because it was our third and last song we would go to. However I still think it would be very suitable to do a song to.

First Idea

Here are some examples of what we would hope to achieve, and what we have got this first idea from.


Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Tell Me Baby


Aerosmith - Pink

This second one gave us a good idea that we can't continuously lip sync the whole way through,rather have people or instruments to break up the lip syncing.

First Idea.1

We have had an idea as a group if we do this song;
We would have auditions shown so that the beginning would be editied so that many different people are singing the song, in a continous way.. this would be the story to the formation of a band.
As the band start to come together the band members faces are shown more regularly, until the final band is picked.
The ending will be the final band playing a set or just final endd, perhaps also showing the band life.

The bands we would possibly like to make a video for are;

Taylor Swift - Mine

Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek

Temper Trap - Sweet Diposition

The Killers - When We Were Young

Chase and Status - Let You Go

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Can't Stop
