Performanced based music videos seemed the be the most favoured likeiwse with the music channel Kerrang; this music channel plays rock music this would explain why rock was the most favoured genre music when asked in our questionairre.

You me at six - Hold me down album cover analysis
Hold me down is the album produced by You Me At Six, the front cover has a variety of bright colours which attracts your eye sight. The name of the band is in the centre of the cover in capitals and the name of the album below in fancy writing. The effect of masking tape over the writing adds to the effect of the artistic design on the front cover as you would use masking tape when painting to cover up what has already been finished e.g. the band, and the flamboyant colours behind being new ideas that they want to produce as a band.

Final proposal: Oasis- Stop crying your heart out
1.Working title: Oasis- Stop crying your heart out
2.Channel for broadcast- MTV Rocks. MTV was founded in 1981 and was the first channel devoted to playing music videos as it’s only content. This seems normal now with several music channels on cable and satellite broadcasting. But at the time this was very controversial with executives saying it’ll never work but MTV is one of the most famous and recognisable brands in the music industry. This is very fitting for Oasis as they are at times controversial with their infamous Gallagher brother feuds. They are also one of the most famous British bands, with multi-million global album sales.
3.Target Audience: C2, D, E- Oasis have a working class background and portray them selves as working class lads from Manchester. The majority of Oasis’s audience are working class and can relate to their music as it indicates real problems that a normal working class person will face and often suggesting there will be a light at the end of the tunnel giving their audience hope.
4.Type of music video- Our music video will be a predominantly narrative based piece. It will portray the life of a homeless man, the struggles he faces everyday and how a kind deed can raise his spirits. There will also be a performance basis to our piece with the central character lip syncing along with the lyrics.
5.Style- Our film will be shot mostly with a black and white filter to show how cold and desperate the life of a homeless person can be. When something positive happens to him colour returns to add warmth to the piece. The central character will be shot from a high angle to imply he is powerless and weak.
