Hello there and welcome to my A2 media blog The brief for the A2 course is: to form a group of two/three and produce a music video as the main product along with two ancillary texts: a digipak cover for the music video and a magazine advert for the digipak. We will also need to do research for the band we choose to do along with music videos from the same genre. We also need to research the typical codes and conventions for a music video. Feel free to leave any feedback on any of my posts Thanks

RS - Ice Cream for Activists
For the performance side of our music video we require a band to be able to lip sync and mime for the song which will then be cross cut between the narrative clips.
I am good friends with the drummer of the band "Ice Cream for Activists" Dave Atkinson and I happened to be talking about making a music video in media. After talking about it during tutor time, Dave said he was fairly interested when I asked him if he wanted to have his band "Ice Cream for Activists" in our music video. He is a fan of Muse as well as some of the other members of his band so he knew they would love to do it too.
We are currently waiting for them to get some practising in and learn all the lyrics etc. Once they are happy to be filmed and have all the lyrics and instruments we will arrange a day so we can do some filming at first just a practice. We will then edit the footage and play it to the class for feedback. If everything is okay or needs some improving we could go back again and redo any shots from the audience feedback.
