Change of Plan

unfortunately at this late stage due to us being unable to retract the song which we had first planned to use. we have had to change our song and artist completely! But it is not all bad news, as the group which we are using now are very accessible to us, and we have spoken to the band (who are unsigned) and they have agreed to allowed us to film a music video to one of their songs. We are now on the up as on tuesday 3rd november they have a gig where they are performing a few of their songs and they have agreed to allow us to film them. This is exciting news as we can get some very good and exciting performance footage that has verisimilitude as the song is theirs and they would not miming which is what would have had to be done if we had kept our original idea and miming can be difficult to do.

The group that we are now using are a grime/rock band they are very unique as they have a very different mix of genres in their songs and therefore appeal to a wide ranged audience. The name of the band is called LTK. Its consists of a rapper (general), Guitarist/Vocals (Greg), Drums/Vocals (James) and a bass player.

Due to the change to the change in song we now have to change basically the whole concept of the music video. The group it self have there own style, they tend to wear purple and they are performing at a live gigs so mise en scene will be dreary and glum which is the look that we as it appeals to this target audience. Now we are going to use a lot of performance element as the rock genre this is what appeals to that target audience. i am hoping to film them performing with lots of camera movement this video is what i want the performance parts to look like



This looks simple but the close up of the funky musicians as well as the singers and dancers makes this video very appealing. We are also hoping to interpret some narrative into the music video but we have not yet made a definite decision on the song, but we have listened to the songs and i think it will most probably be a narrative about a young couple having an argument with one another as the lyrics in the song connote this.
