Final Practice video task planning (20)

Original song and music video

    Our creation of the song in the style of Wes Anderson


The task we were given was to create a one minute music video from the list of songs we were given. We had to create this in either one take or in the style of Wes Anderson. For my groups task we decided to go in the style of Wes Anderson and we created our music video using the song Grace Kelly by MIKA. 
Wes Anderson

Wes Anderson is a film director, producer, screen writer and actor who is known for his distinctive visual and narrative style. He has been noted for his distinctive style of film making through his obsession with symmetrical composition. He is also known for his extensive use of flat space camera moves, slow-motion walking shots and deliberate limited colour palette.



In our one-minute music video we tried to recreate the focus on central subjects like Wes Anderson does. All of the shot include the actor placed right in the middle of the frame. We decided to use Rory in our music video as he knows all the lyrics to the song and is very good at lip syncing.

    This looks like a lot of fun to have made Katherine. Has this research and recreation of the work of Wes Anderson made you think about using his style at all in your own production work?

Audience Research (23)

What are you trying to find out in your research? In my research I am trying to discover many things which will help me in developing my A2 coursework. The main thing I am trying to discover is whether people still consume music videos and what the age range is of people who consume them. I am also trying to discover what other media products people consume and if they think that my idea for a music video is a good one or if i should change elements of it.  When conducting my research I went out into Wymondham town to ask people the questions as apposed to just asking people in the sixth-from. There are many strengths to doing this, the main being that it gives me more reliable data. In the sixth-form there are only students and teacher so just asking them my research questions limits the demographic response of my data to just students and teachers. By going out and conducting my research in Wymondham town it gives me a wider range of different people and thus widens my demograp

Practise task explained (1)

Me and Rosie were randomly given a question and a nursery rhyme which we could use as a stimulus to create our music video. The question we were given was Should I get a tattoo? and the nursery rhyme we were given was Jack and Jill . These were the two points that we could use to help create a music video, and we could choose to incorporate either both or one into our video. Our initial ideas for this task is to use the nursery rhyme of Jack and Jill as a stimulus for our music video as there seems to be more directions we could go with this than with the question Should I get a tattoo ?  Jack and Jill lyrics   J ack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water Jack fell down and broke his crown And Jill came tumbling after. Up got Jack, and home did trot As fast as he could caper He went to bed and bound his head With vinegar and brown paper. After looking up the complete lyrics for the nursery rhyme i decided to do some research into the meaning behind it to see

Evaluation question 2

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary tasks? In my personal opinion I feel that the combination between my video and ancillary tasks are very effective. Within all three of the products I incorporated the same photographs so that the synergy between the products were clear. One of the main elements of my music video was the father looking back at the good memories with his daughter through photographs which were hanging up in her room. Because of how important the photos were in the video I felt that it was vital to incorporate them into the ancillary tasks as well. Typically within solo music videos the focus is on the artist and this is then incorporated onto the cover of the digipack and album release poster too. However, due to me challenging this typical convention I had to use a different theme to link all my products together to create synergy, which is where the link between the photographs came in. When first looking at the title of my alb
