All of scenes are vague ideas that I have come up with. The magority of the scenes link with the lyrics to show that the music video is a narrative music video and that the story links with the song. I have 4 locations for my music video that are shown in the storyboards. These ideas are to show my artists emotions and that she is hearbroken. The order of the scenes may be switched around as this is a vague idea for my story board. My first location is a dark long road with no one around to emphasise the title of the song. My second location is is a room with a piano My third location is in her bedroom My fourth location is a plain background for when my artist performs
The reason why this has influenced me is because it is about breaking up with her boyfriend which is similar to my song. I thought i could get some ideas from this music video. Her performing and having a narrative story line in the same music videos was an idea that i thought i clever and makes the music video much more interesting. The video is not to complex which is what I was heading towards, as I think it would be too confusing and messy if i tried to make it more complex. This is a video that has inspired me and has given me good idea's for my music video.
This music video influenced me as there is a lot of performing within this music video, which is one of my ideas within my video. She looks directly into the camera which seems like she is singing to the audience which shows her emotions which I think emphasises the lyrics within the music video. There is also a emotional narrative story int he music video which i think also emphasies the lyrics in the music video and makes them more significant. This links to my idea as this is what i am planning to do within my music video. I want my music video to be emotional and so how significant the lyrics mean to the performer. This is a music video that has influenced me hugely.
Avril Ramona Lavigne was born 27 September 1984 is a Canadian and French singer and songwriter. She was born in Belleville, Ontario, and spent most of her youth in the town of Napanee. By the age of 15, she had appeared on stage with Shania Twain, by 16 she had signed a two-album recording contract with Arista Records worth more than $2 million. In 2002, when she was 17 years old, Lavigne entered the music industry with her debut album Let Go, becoming one of the most popular pop punk artists, a reason she earned her reputation of a ‘skater punk’ and "pop punk princess". Since her professional debut she has sold more than 30 million albums and over 50 million singles worldwide. When You're Gone "When You're Gone" is a song written by Canadian singer Avril Lavigne and Butch Walker. It was written for Lavigne's 2007 album, The Best Damn Thing. It was co-written and produced by Walker and released as the album's second single on 19 June 2007. Avril Lavigne has said the song "is about being with someone you
love, and you have to say goodbye, and all the little things you miss
about them". The song may have been inspired by Lavigne's then-husband, Deryck Whibley, although in an interview in Northern Ireland with The Belfast Telegraph she did not confirm this.According to her, she did not intend the song to be a love song, but
she was writing a slow song and the process brought out "all that
emotional stuff" in her. "It's not cheesy, because I wrote it", she
said. "If I was older, a professional writer coming up with all that,
that would be lame." Billboard magazine describes the song as "a power ballad with a piano and synth introduction".Composer Rob Mathes orchestrated the song with genuine string section,
although the brief opening note, before the piano came in, was on a
synthesizer.
My name is Harriet May and I am
currently studying A-Level Media Studies at Aldenham School.
As part of my coursework this year, I am creating and producing
a music video to a song of my choice.I
have chosenWhen Your Gone byyou as the song I would like to create a
music video for, and I am writing this letter to seek your permission to do so.
Please note, this video will be used only for my coursework
and will not be distributed or marketed in any form.I would greatly appreciate your permission to
use this song.
The video was directed by Marc Klasfeld, who is most well-known from his works of director for Sum 41's
music videos. Lavigne reportedly came up with the concept for the
video. The video portrays three relationships in different age groups,
but in the same situation involving these relationships on the verge of
being destroyed. The first relationship involves a pregnant woman whose
husband is fighting in the war. The second involves an elderly man whose
wife has recently died. And the third involves a teenage couple walking
in the park only to be caught by the girl's controlling mother who
forbids them from seeing each other ever again. Lavigne said that the
video is very personal. In the end, the scenes break out daylight with
the teenage girl returning to the place where the duo were caught, the
elderly man drinking to his wife in a graveyard, and an SMS from the
pregnant woman's husband, with the text "I'm okay. I miss U". Lavigne is
then seen running in a field once more until the screen fades out. Portions of the video were filmed at California State University, Northridge's Botanic Garden.The video was premiered on MuchMusic in Canada on 6 June 2007 during the 5 pm broadcast of MuchOnDemand. While in the United States it was premiered on MTV's TRL on 21 June. It reached the No. 1 spot on both TV music channel countdowns on August. One year later the video won the People's Choice: Favourite Canadian Artist award during the 2008 MuchMusic Video Awards. This is the song that I have chosen to do as this song is my favourite out of my choices as I think it is the easiest to lip sing and I have different ideas for the music video than the original music video. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_You%27re_Gone_%28Avril_Lavigne_song%29
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side
[Pre-chorus:]
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
[Chorus:]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you,
I love the things that you do
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me, yeah
[Chorus:]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear will always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you
"Too Little Too Late" is a song by American recording artist JoJo. It was written by Billy Steinberg, Josh Alexander, and Ruth-Anne Cunningham for JoJo's second studio album, The High Road.
It was co-produced by Alexander, Vincent Herbert, and Billy Steinberg.
"Too Little Too Late" was released as the album's first single in North
America on August 15, 2006 and in the United Kingdom on January 15,
2007. "Too Little Too Late" broke the record for the biggest jump into the top three on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, moving from number 66 to number three in one week; this record was previously held by Mariah Carey, whose single "Loverboy" rose from number 60 to number two in August 2001.However, the record was ultimately broken by Kelly Clarkson's "My Life Would Suck Without You", which jumped from number 97 to number one on the issue dated February 7, 2009.It remains JoJo's biggest hit single in the United States to date, and her only one to reach the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. The reason why I didn't choose this song is because I think that there were to many voices at once which would have made it hard for me to video the lip singing on this song.
"Mr. Know It All" is a song by American pop recording artist Kelly Clarkson. It was written by Brian Kennedy, Ester Dean, Brett James,
and Dante Jones, with the production handled by Kennedy, Dean, and
Jones. Clarkson described the song as a "vocally raw record" and stated
that she and her producers strove to record her voice as it is heard at
live performances, using as little auto-tune processing as possible. It was released by RCA Records as the lead single from her fifth studio album, Stronger on September 5, 2011.
"Mr. Know It All" is a midtempo pop rock song with R&B influences, with its lyrical content dealing with the themes of heartbreak, and relationships with wisenheimers.
Upon its release, "Mr. Know It All" has received mixed reception from
music critics, who noted the song as significantly different from
Clarkson's previous releases. The song became a commercial success, it
became her ninth top-ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and topped the Billboard Adult Pop Songs chart. Internationally, the song topped the charts in Australia and in South Korea, and has attained a top-ten position in New Zealand, Poland, the United Kingdom. It also became a crossover hit to the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, becoming her first solo single to enter the country chart after 9 years since "A Moment Like This" (2002), prompting RCA to release a country version produced by Dann Huff in 2012.
The song's accompanying music video was directed by Justin Francis
and features a "wall of doubt" background in which derogatory headlines
about Clarkson are posted. Several of the critics noted the video's
informal fallacy approach to mainstream media. Clarkson has performed
"Mr. Know It All" in various locations around the world, most notably at
the 2011 NRL Grand Final, on the Australian, British and German versions of the television series The X Factor, and on the set-list of her Stronger Tour.
The reason why I didn't choose this song is because I think this song is too well known for me to compete with and also the music video is very good and I think that I wouldn't do the music video justice. I think this song would be a good song to do as the lip reading wouldn't be hard.
