Introduction...

As an A2 Media Studies student I am entitled to research, plan and create a music video. To support my music video I must alongside create 2 of either Cd album cover, magazine advertisement or website. This project will require time, I will need to research into many things such as; music genres, target audiences, conventions of music videos, codes of music videos, conventions and codes of album artwork, marketing strategies. I must recognise narrative that are involved in music video's and the reference they have to either the song, the artist or society today.
For the first part of the course I will be doing independent studies, however part of the way through I will be designated to a group with whom I will create my music video. This will require me to have good communication skills and time management. 
Throughout my project I will update my blog regularly, with essay's, analysis', and eventually filming updates. Alongside this blog will be a group blog which will be linked to my main blog. The group blog is a place for all the members of my group to put their ideas and update as a group working together.
I hope to create a strong music video that would succeed in the music industry, I also hope to gain valuable experience in working towards a deadline, in a group and with new equipment.

  1. Some interesting analysis. Keep in mind the conventions used and how the camera is effectively employed in music videos. Will you adopt these techniques for your own production?
