Pre-production Evaluation

In the preproduction, we worked as a group of 7 to create a story board within this we picked the music video “FourFiveSeconds” by Rihanna, Kanye West and Paul McCartney. We then watched the clip to and pulled out all of the different shot and created a story board to allow us to know what happens where and also how long the shots are, we all did a section each and as there was 7 of us it made it very quick. This then allowed us to be able to look at what they are wearing and as a group could decide what each one of the actors needed to wear. Then we had to decide where to film the piece, this was an easy decision as because the video always has a white backroom the white room was an obvious choice. Also as there was only one prop which was a guitar it was very easy to find this guitar. I believe that of the pre-production allowed us to be able to create a very successful video. When choosing the costumes we developed what they had used as are actor for Rihanna did not wear a denim jacket so this gave the piece a bit of a twist.  Next time I believe that it would be better to plan the order in which we film as it was a bit confusing when trying to find the images when editing the video.

UK Tribes

UK Tribes Usually to identify a target audience and what tribe they belong to in the UK we use UK Tribes. However, after some intensive research, we figured that UK Tribes do not have a section or tribe for country-listeners as country music hasnt been identified as appealing to young listeners yet however, this figure is growing. Therefore, I had to use other sources of information to do my research such as demographics of country listeners in the UK and current artists who still carry a country background. The country genre is still classed as very niche genre across the UK, this is because it’s not as popular as other mainstream genres such as pop or Hip-Hop/Indie like it used to be years ago. BBC Radio 2 has been a massive influencer in distributing country music to mass audiences, as they usually promote upcoming bands and artists within the genre. The current listeners of this channel will have a strong country background or at least have some interest in it. They pay Nashvi

Music/ Music Video Inspiration

Rodney Atkins- Take A Back Road This song is all shot outside and is based around a country song coming on that makes him want to take a back road, when the song comes on the mood of the piece changes this gives the piece a nice up beat feeling and there for gets the audience’s attention. I also like the way that most of the shots are taken outside this give the shots this real feeling like he was actually performing in these locations, I believe that this element makes the video very effective and keeps the users attention on the video.  Blake Shelton- Who Are You When I'm Not Looking  I find this song very inspirational due to the meaning of the song, this is shown through the lyrics and also the way in which Blake Shelton is singing.  The video also helps to make the meaning of the song more powerful as it shows Blake Shelton singing and playing the song on his bed in a dark room this adds tension and makes you really focus in on the lyrics. There is also a narrative e

Website

We created a website for our fictional artist as during our research and planning we found that the majority of artists have their own website which contains a little bit about themselves, tour dates and especially for country they usually have links to their merch. We included a small biography about who Luke Meadows is with his interests alongside images. I think that having a website makes the artist seem more real, especially with how we are going to be updating it with new content throughout this course. LINK: https://ahawa142.wixsite.com/website
