Hey! My name is Jamie Brookes and I am a Media Studies student at West Hatch High School. I am very keen of Media and hope to continue discovering the every changing world surrounding it in university and later life. For my A2 course myself and two others, Faye Martin and Elliot Lee must create a music video and digi-pack for a band of our choice. On my blog I will be showing all the research and ideas I have come up with as well as the finished projects themselves and an evaluation summarising everything I have completed during the course. We also have a group blog, were group decisions, discussions and final ideas are kept.

Track Choice

The track we have decided to produce a music video for is Evanescence - Bring Me To Life. This was finally decided after writing down as a group a list of artists and songs we would be happy to produce a video for. On the list we had such artists and songs like Bon Jovi - Living On A Prayer. As I have said earlier the genre we have decided to focus on was rock.

I am very happy with our choice of track and believe that we will be able to produce a very successful music video.

The inspiration came from when we were writing down a list of possible song choices. We then decided to look through a list of popular rock songs on the internet and also look through an iPod. This was when we all saw and listened to Evanescence. All of us have heard of Evanescence and felt that this was one artist that we wanted to look at more closely. During our research we discovered the song 'Bring Me To Life', we listened to the song the entire way through and jotted down all the things we thought we could put into the video.

I will upload these initial ideas soon and compare them to our final ideas.

Next we need to start finalising our storyboards and plan our shots for our music videos. We will then need to plan when and where we will shot our music video.
