In today's lesson, in our groups (Elliot, Ellie and Max) we were discussing and finalising what song to use for our music video. This also included trying to find a song that could easily be translated into some kind of story, so that it could correspond with the music itself. The music video couldn't be too long and most songs range around 3-5 minutes long. The song's we continually looked at were either too long or we struggled to find appropriate story lines to suit the song. One song that we came across, which we all liked by My Chemical Romance called Welcome to the Black Parade is a possibility, however it it 5 minutes long and we simply can't use the entire song due to its length, therefore, we had to continue our search of a song 4 minutes and under - preferably around 3 minutes. Although, if we could find an appropriate way to cut the song slightly, it wouldn't be such a problem, but we don't want to ruin the song. We did come up with other song's though such as:
Snow Patrol - Run - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOBs8dU4Pb8
Aerosmith - Walk this Way -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UFFa1HbFfA
Aerosmith - Cryin - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfNmyxV2Ncw
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - California - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlUKcNNmywk
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under the Bridge - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwlogyj7nFE
We have chosen a genre of rock to do our music video on, as we have several talented musicians and past musicians who can make a convincing music video if we want to film a band scene, which we are 100% certain on doing so. The most important part of choosing one of these songs, is, which one has the most appropriate story like lyrics. We listened to each song, and tried to analyse them in the best way possible with Aerosmith and the Chilli Peppers being the most likely bands that we are going to choose for the music video.
