We have looked at past A2 productions that have been completed and posted on YouTube. We are talking about what are the good and bad bits about the videos and this is helping us decide what we think we should and should not do.
The first thing that we didn't like about most of the music videos that we watched was that they didn't have their own original soundtrack, they had a copyright. This just shows that they haven't really made a original, unique music video. The performance obviously is their own work but mixed with a soundtrack that already exists, it doesn't really show their full potential.
This is why we have decided as a group to use Ryan's own music, that he has created with his band, 'Lost in the lights'.

The Beginning First Ideas and Research
In this A2 course our group, which is:
Me [http://richwellsa2.blogspot.com/],
Nicole [http://nicole-collas.blogspot.com/],
Ryan [http://blakeryan1.blogspot.com/],
and Morgana [http://morganawilliamsa2.blogspot.com/]
We are going to produce either a short film or a music video containing one of our friends bands. We had a choice of 3 possible tasks but we are focusing on just these two. We are going to research this by watching videos on 'YouTube' mainly and watching short films on 'Film short'. We are edging more towards the music video for our choice of task but we are all going to research and then discuss on this. We are going to focus on how both the music videos and short films are structured and how they impact on the audience and especially we are going to focus on the 3 act structures.
To produce the music video we Will have to get a band that we know personally so that we can assure that we are using own music and also this doesn't apply pressure to us as a group to find a piece of music that isn't copyright. Also, getting someone that we know can help us understand that lyrics and mood of the song in more depth, and this will allow us to write in more detail so that the audience can understand it in more depth as well.
For the short film we have a really wide variety of choice of how to categorise our film. We would have to choose something that isn't too complex and that we can work with flexibly. With the music video we can arrange it to how we wanted it to be and as one of us knows someone that is in a band this would be quite amazing to do.
