Rough cut Feedback

You need more close ups/ extreme close ups of your artist


It's good that the camera moves + there are different angles but you still need a wider variety


Chorus- Flash backs to ''happy times'' with a change of venue to make it more interesting?


You need some cutaways to lyric references.

Task One- Kieran

Plan for another nights filming:

When we film again we will concentrate on filming the artist singing the chorus. We will also focus on filming the artist with the love interest to use as flash backs as we don't have enough footage currently.

I would also say to use a different location to show the change however we may use the same location but de-saturate to look like a memory.

Task Five- Kieran

OKGo

1.I would say that their star persona is being different, and being very artistic, they use very different techniques in their music video and to good effect, you want to see more of their videos because of this.

2. I would say that they definitely try and sell themselves in the video as you see them in all of their videos.

They do not live up to the genre characterisation although with indie music the videos have started to become more artistic like OKGo's videos ans i fell they have definitely started a trend. They also use voyeurism in the way that their videos are very entertaining and people enjoy watching them just for the entertainment not necessarily the music.

3. I would say their target audience is late teens, male and into indie music  they would also be quite intelligent and artistic.

4.They are attempting to appeal to an alternative audience by braking away from mainstream pop videos and starting their own type of video where they are artistic, clever and fun to watch.

5. I would say that our target audience is also late teens and male, however they would be into R&B and possibly be of lesser intelligence and more social.

6.WE are attempting to target this audience by showing the artist in the video, and by trying to connect to our audience on an emotional level.

Task Four- Kieran

Internet Channel

One music channel on the internet is YouTube, this would be ideal to show our music video on, it is free to use and anyone can watch the video, this would help us increase consumption and also on Chris Browns own channel so that people who like Chris Brown would see this as well.

TV Channels

One Channel that would definitely be suitable would be 'Flava' this music channel is for R&B music so people who watch this will like the genre and will want to watch our video.

One Channel that would not be suitable is 'Kerrang' This is a channel for rock/indie-rock music and our song would not be popular on this channel.

Task Three- Kieran

The Artist for our video, Chris Brown, uses Social media such as twitter to interact with fans, he also updates them on what he is doing and when new songs/videos are released.
A way we could use this to increase consumption of our music video would be for him to link the video or tweet about the video so his followers would go and watch the video.

Task Two- Kieran

Ancillary Product

Our idea is to use a panoramic picture of the artist on our Digi-pack and only the bit with the artist in for the poster, the idea was to use the picture at the bus station, it links with the music video as it is taken at one of the shots. The poster and digi-pack will clearly show the artist in the same costume as in the video.
