CD back cover and insert (preliminary piece)

We began today by taking photos of myself and Dom for our Cd cover and insert. Our genre of music for this piece is pop, so we wanted to portray this in our Cd cover so that this would attract our target audience.
Me and Dom are the main singers and dancers in the video so we have got photos of ourselves so we thought it would be a good idea to have us on the CD cover to follow the stereotypical pop covers. We are creating the CD cover and insert on publisher. In the still images we have took we are posing in funny/dramatic ways which enables us to relate to our target audience of which is the younger generation/teenagers.

The start of our music video (preliminary piece)

In this preliminary piece we are carrying out a music video project. I am working in a group of five people, whom of which are; Dom Collins, Amy Hopkinson, Alice martin and Toniey Salt.

We carry out a preliminary piece to see how well our group works together as we have made it considerably larger from our AS studies. Also, we do it to see how well our group gels in order to give ourselves the chance to get the best possible grade available.

Our chosen song is ' Lets Get Ready To Rhumble ' by PJ and Duncan. We began our planning by listening to music on each of our phones and selceting a few songs each that we liked. We then walked around the setting for our video (which in this case, is our school), and decided that an up-beat pop song would suit the mise-en-scene. We have also chose this song because, although it is a song from the 1990s', it has recently been released in the charts again, due to a live performance on Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway, which was a huge it with the younger/teenage generation. Finally, the lyrics have similar connotations of school, which enables us to make a video which fits our mise-en-scene well.
