Manny and me have been talking about the project still and we started to discuss what type of music we would use. Then we discussed what bands or musicians we could possibly use and discovered that we did not know many musical people and therefore this would be an issue as we need music in the music video.
We then began to discuss doing a trailer for the final project instead this is because we have had more experience of film as we worked on an opening sequence of a film for our final AS piece. Also an option is that we could do a trailer for the film that we did the opening sequence for in the AS project. But it is likely that we will make a trailer for a completely different film.
We need to do more research into film trailers to figure out what codes and conventions are used for trailers for different genre's of film so that it is obvious to an audience what genre of film the trailer is representing. We are also going to do some research into a few different genres of film and decide on which one we would rather do.It is important that we like the genre we do so that we enjoy the experience of doing this project.
It is likely that next week we will have decided on a genre and done a lot of research into the different trailers that have been used in that genre. Next week we should also be in a position to start our 1 minute clip of a film trailer. Which is part of the research task that we have been set this term.

A2 Media Project:Research
For this media project i am working in a pair with Manny. For this project we could choose to create either a music video, a trailer or a short film. There should be a difference in the level of skill used between the project in AS and the project in A2. Manny and me have decided that we are going to do a music video for this project. For this we have to create a music video, CD packaging and promotion. We need to do a good amount of detailed research into this type of media. We have also yet to decide on what genre of music we are doing so that we can research the codes and conventions of the genre. Within in the next 3 weeks we have been set a research task this requires us to choose a particular genre and then choose an artist within the genre and research the type of music videos that have been created. Also we are going to research into the print media products such as album covers and music magazines.
We have also been set a development task where we choose a song by the artist that has been researched and we have to shoot a short video covering the first minute of the song. The deadline for exporting the music video is the 23rd July.
Me and Manny are also going to produce an in depth analysis of a music video that is of the same genre as the genre we choose. when we are doing this we will consider the impact on the audience and the effect on the image of the band. We are also going to consider techniques in the music videos that we look at and decide whether we want them in our own music video. This detailed analysis should be completed by the 11th of July.
