During AS Media we constructed a storyboard, this allowed us to chronologically order how we would film our thriller. However, this year has been totally different for many reasons. One main reason for this different is because we had to consider the fact that we were to select an British song and a matching video. This concept limited what we could show as the British music industry have a stereotypical theme of being raw & edgy.
This was not an easy task as we had to(individually) select our top 5 tunes & bring it forward to the group with debatable reasons that could be competed against. After this process we elaborated upon ideas, themes and concepts that would give us an successful music video.
Back to AS Media now, we took a great deal of focus in the representation of our performer in our thriller trailer and this included the four key technical areas of mise en scene, camera, sound & editing. This was an important factor for our trailer as we were trying to get an particular idea across; female being desirable(sexual assett). This "desire" was portrayed through the performers physical appearance, she was a very skimpy outfit that got even more skimpier after her turbulent night out. Compared to this year where we did'nt focus too much on representation we more or less put our focus on the narrative thread that we wanted to showcase in our video.
AS we had to do a great deal of research on our task as a whole as we are all familiar with thrillers and stuff but not too aware of the rules that follow there making. This was quite different to the task of this year because I feel that young people in this day and age take a good likeness in music and visuals and with the combination of the two there is a enthusiasm to produce something that will not only attract your age group but others also.
