In class, Ie presented our Music video ideas to the class. I had to pitch my chosen song and the reason why I have chosed this. My music video is Climax by Usher. I want my music video to be completely different from the actual and to have a storyline in it also I want my music video to subvert the stereotype of R&B. I did this to be unique and still make it a good music video.

My presentation went well and I managed to get some feedback to help me improve my music video. Some of my class mates mentioned that it might be difficult to use the idea of having a heart transplant happening in my music video. They have also asked how I am going to be subverting the typical R&B genre. I have said we will take it in the past by using black and white and the costumes the characters will be wearing will show that its in the past.

Another issue that might occur is the storyline confusing the audience and if the music video don't relate to the song. I have checked the lyrics and I Think it will relate to the music video. I will be mking sure I am taking shots of everything so the audience can understand whats happening. Overall we used good examples and expained who are music video is going to be aimed at.

My moodboard presents a old fashion mood, with black and white pictures and modern pictures, I used this to show the past and future. The used a lot of female images and some make to show that my music video is going to be based on a relationship . My moodbaord looks very modern and looks more nature. I did this to give an idea of where the music video is going to be located. I used images with instruments to reflect soul music.

Britney video




As a task we had to remake a music video of Britney Spears song 'Hit me baby', I learn't a lot about this project, the most tricky bit was making sure our movements in the song matched the lyrics. We used a ipod to play Britney Spears which helped a lot and made it much easier for us. I also learn't to be more creative and put ideas on where should we shot this scene and how should we shot the next scene. As a group we decided it would be a good idea to use the sports hall, so it could be more realistic. Ive also learn't how to edit the actual music video by using different types of effects like differ and dissolve to make it entertainig and real. I found the editing very easy for this task because I found it very easy to put everything in order and cut some bits out that wasn't needed.
