Initial Idea's

Ricardo, Callan and myself want to find an artist/band which will be good to use for the music video we are going to be producing. We don't want the band to be too well known as they will already have many music videos promoting themselves. Last week we got set an essay for our first piece of research which helped us a lot into who we are planning on choosing. We researched 'Something Good Can Work' by Two Door Cinema Club, as this video is basic but effective. After thoroughly going through the video, we found many different techniques which we could use when producing our video to make it as good as possible. The black and white saturate with a plain colour background we both thought worked really well with the band and the song, therefore this might be an idea which could be included within our video.

We now know that Two Door Cinema Club are the band we are going to use for our video, not only as there video's are very clever and unique but also we both throughly like listening to their music.

Hi I'm Luke, I am in year 13 continuing the second year of my A-levels in Media Studies and  Double AGCE ICT. Throughout my blog I will be uploading posts commenting on the production process working towards a final piece of complete coursework on a music video, which will be submitted at the end of the year. I enjoyed Media a great deal at A/S working with Booom Productions to produce 'Flashback', and I'm aiming for a high grade in my A2 to hopefully achieve an A at the end of the year in both my coursework and exam. 


For my coursework I have decided to work with Ricardo Leaman and Callan McCauley. We are currently deciding on a name for the record label and undertaking research which will help us decide on a band which will be suitable to use for this years project.
