Ideas on artists.

For this section we discussed what artists and band's songs and styles we may use for our own music video. Before this we decided on our genre so that it narrowed down what we were looking for. We researched both male and female artists to help us decide exactly what we wanted. We found that all artists are very unique and individual in their own way so we must consider this as the videos will be harder to make. Some are also bigger than others, for example Jessie J compared to Christina Perri. Christina Perri is very new to the industry so has a lot of competition with someone like Jessie J as she has done so well. Her videos are also at a higher standard as she has a bigger budget due to her popularity and the amount of albums and singles she has sold. Our decision was that it would be too difficult to use somebody like Jessie J because her genre does not fit into our alternative/ indie genre and her videos are far too complex. We may choose to use a band such as Two Door Cinema Club and follow the structure of their videos as they are much more simplistic but still intriguing to their target audience. By researching these artists it will help us decide on a band name and a song which we can then put into a mood board to develop further ideas.
