Initial Ideas

Who are you working with?

• For our media work I am working with Victoria as we have worked together before, so have experience with it, and we work well together.

Who is the artist you have chosen to make a music video for?

• The artist we have chosen to make a music video for is Avril Lavigne, a song featuring Nickelback singer Chad Kroeger.

What is the name of the song?

• The name of the song is Let Me Go.

What is the name of your artist that you have created?

• For our media we have created two artists, as the song we are doing is sung by two people. The song is mainly sung by a female, so the female artist we have created is Annlou. The name of the male artist that we have created is Jay Phillips.

Are you going to have performance and/or/narrative in your music video?

• We are going to have both narrative and performance in our music video. We are going to have both the female and male artist singing at different times, and then have a storyline with it to go with the lyrics and theme of the song.

Give a general overview of your ideas for the music video you have come up with so far.

• We have come up with a few ideas for our music video.

• We want the music video to be a love story.• We want it to involve two people ending their

relationships and falling in love as they comfort each other, to match the lyrics of the song.

• We want two different parts for performance, one in front of a screen and one in a woods area.

Why do you think that this idea is appropriate for the song you have chosen?

• I think it’s appropriate as it is a love song, and it has quite a sad theme. So the idea we have chosen, a love story about relationships that end, will match the song’s lyrics and themes.

Does your idea link to the lyrics of your song?

• Yes our idea links to the lyrics of our song. They talk about relationships ending, the sadness of that, a beginning relationship and the happiness of that and the storyline we have for our music video links to these lyrics.

How does your idea fit your genre?

• Our idea fits our genre as it fits the generic conventions of a pop/rock genre. The genre usually features stories of love or stories of heartbreak, and our ideas fit these conventions.
