Weather precautions and analysis

Weather precautions and analysis

It was important to plan filming dates and also the weather on these dates. We did not want to get to the locations, especially London, and find that the weather was cold and raining. This does not fit the conventions of the genre as the House genre focuses on a happy and positive looking visuals through weather. We would want to film in times when in is bright, clear and also sunny as this would help to enforce the conventions throughout. As we were planning to film late in the year we had even more pressure when having to film as it would become dark quite quickly in the evenings. It was important for us as a group to plan properly and take all of these aspects into consideration.

Avicii - You Make Me - Lyrics

Avicii Lyrics
Here are the lyrics of the song we will be creating in our year 13 coursework. We decided the follow an abstract theme so the lyrics themselves do not have any relevance within the music video. Other groups have followed a narrative which is associated with the lyrics but we decided this would not be the best idea within the group. We didn't want to depend on volunteers to help us with filming and as all members of the group are male we would rather focus on an abstract theme than that of voyeurism and a love story. Through research of the genre we found that there is a lot of rapid editing and also abstract themes followed throughout, we decided to focus more on this idea than a normal narrative, which is more associated within the pop genre in most circumstances. Still, we will make sure to include several different locations and lip sync to the lyrics. We will make sure that David will learn the lyrics to make it much easier to film and produce an effective and realistic looking music video.
