Music Videos moodboard:

These are some of the song choices I thought of doing. They all would make good music videos and the lyrics would make a good story!

5 targets for this year:

1) Plan my work carefully.
2) Research thoroughly.
3) Be creative.
4) Use good camera shots.
5) Edit my work well.

Why did I choose music video over children's tv programme?

After various research, I decided that I wanted to do a music video. I chose to do a music video because I have much more interest for making a music video and feel like I have creative ideas for the video. A music video would be more my style because I have a passion for music. I also would like choosing the type of genre what the music is. I also like to research into various song lyrics and then think of the meaning behind these lyrics to suit an appropriate video!

Action plan.

Music video:
1) Research various music videos and ones from previous A2 students.
2) Think of possible song choices.
3) Research the lyrics.
4) Audience research into what types of music and videos the public enjoy.
5) Post video of vox pop on blog.
6) Possible questionnaire on music for public.
7) Choose song.
8) Think of video story line and ideas.
9) Research into what characters/actors we would use in video.
10) Choose the actors we want in video.
11) Research various scenerey and theme ideas.
12) Sort out the costumes
13) Start shooting some clips.
14) Edit the video.

What is creativity?

Creativity is when you are able to make different ideas and then put these ideas across in a less boring way.  These ideas can come from your imagination and you can be inspired by various aspects around you.

Marking- Kerry and Harriets.

From looking at both Kerry's and Harriet's blogs I can see that they have both put lots of effort and work into their final pieces and evaluations. I would give Kerry a level 4 (33 marks) and Harriet a high level 3 (30 marks).

Kerry used creativity as well as good content within her final piece and evaluation. She also used a variety of methods to get across her evaluation such as, a video commentary amd radio broadcast. This makes it just that little bit more exciting to read and shows that she has put thought and effort into her work. Her magazine advertisment and photos were also at a very strong standard. You can see that the pictures are well photoshopped and edited in a clever way.

I gave Harriet a slightly lower mark then Kerry due to the fact she did not seem to have as much creativity as Kerry did. However, her short film was very good and interesting to watch and humour was put into the clip.The magazine review was also structured neatly. Harriet's evaluation is also good in length and answered the questions well.
