Over the past week I have been continuing my research for music video ideas, I have added more inspirations of previous videos onto the blog and have also looked at the 9 concepts of music videos in more detail as you will see, I am getting more of an idea on what to do for my video and putting ideas together, I have decided I am going to use a variety of greenscreen and filming which I think will be successful.

Generic Elements of music videos

Online I came across some great research into the elements of a music video so thought I'd share it on here to help me!:

3. New technologies/directions
4. Conventions of music videos
5. Generic elements to music videos
6. Technical features of music videos
7. Issues surronding representation

9. Contemporary issues surronding music videos

Brief

1. A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with two of the following two options:

• a cover for its release as part of a digipak (CD/DVD package);
• a magazine advertisement for the digipak (CD/DVD package).

I am attempting this brief because I thought it would be really intresting to make, during AS coursework I used a series of programmes like adobe premiere pro to make short videos on, so by making a music video it will expand my skills and knowledge in this area and by choosing songs, actors, props ect it will be exciting and great to see the process of starting to plan to my final product, I hope to learn a new range of skills and to experience what it is like to make a music video.
