Research

In a country/pop music video would you expect to see a peformance, narrative or concpet based video?


The majority of people i asked thought that the video should be peformance based, also a high amount of people i asked also thought the video should narrative based. My video is going to be narrtive based with elements of peformance throughout the video.

If i a song is written about love, would you expect to see a love story within the narrative for the music video?




Most people asked thought that there should be elements of a love story with in the narrative as the song is a 'love song'

My brief

I am going to produce my own promotional music video for a track called wooden shield by Amy Joyce. Amy is a new artist so essentially the video will introduce Amy and her music, the video will be performance based with a narrative elements linking to the lyrics in the track, so it will contain various shots with numerous amounts of close ups of Amy and will also have her performing her song. Furthermore the video will be use for Amy’s MySpace page.The target audience will be teenagers and young adults.

Lyrics of the song;
You wake up and you hear the news,
shake off your cartoon blues,
you get rid of the jealous eye,
you put the blue right back into the sky.
I hear by God that you've been saved,
and to these people goodbye you waved,
and to the boys who're kneeling at your feet,
you kick them right back out into the street.
In the hotel bath tub after the foreign affair,
you baptised yourself and you dyed your hair,
and you've changed, now you say

I'll be your wooden shield,
until you find some metal to wield.
And if you have a flower in the summer,
i will be the sun to help you carry on.
Until the devil's gone

Dandilions in your hair form a crown,
the ground's far too far for you to look down,
softest clouds make the brightest schools,
philosophy in our swimming pools.
Tender love from a poet's tongue,
what's worth saying if it can't be sung?
Dressed in white, you're posing as a jewel,
and a bud of gold for your pedestool.
Heaven's a dress you choose to wear,
you're free to care but would you ever dare?
And you've changed, now you say

(chorus again)
bridge)
With a fine-toothed comb you get the knots all right,
you've got ten seperate crickets singing through the night,
I'll follow you fourty days through the sand,
cuz when I'm with you i can see the promised land.
(chorus again)

Resarch-Wordle

In order to get my head around the lyircs and for some inspiration and ideas for my music video I typed the lyrics of my song in to the worlde which then randomizes the words. Making some of the words bolder and clearer then others therefore maybe making these words more relevant within the song.
