Chosen Song Choice

We have finally chosen our song after a long hard thoughtful week. We initially was going for the Hip Hop/Rap genre, but with much thought and consideration we decided that the song choice we wanted to use was too demanding and it seemed more like a short story rather than a narrative and performance. So its goodbye Rhianna and Eminem's song 'Love the way you lie' and hello Examples song 'Watch the sun come up'.

We decided on our original idea of using the artist Example as he has meaningful lyrics and the story we have come up with matches his lyrics and could potentially work really well. Hopefully this idea will work and we will be able to include all the idea's we have made and include them in the song successfully.

Video Analysis

Research on youtube

When i got home from school I began looking on youtube at last year's A2 music video's and come across this really clever video. I love how the drawings move and the words are cut out. Great idea to think about for our video.

Music Video and Genre choices for our song

We have decided our groups genre is going to be 'Rap/Rnb' as we are very fond of the idea of using Eminem and Rihanna's duet "Love the way you lie" as it fits our storyline perfectly.
