During the Lipsyncing Exercise

Our lipsyncing activity was based on the song "Telephone" by Lady Gaga. During filming and when importing the video, we had difficulty uploading the video onto the computer as the tape got jammed in the camera. Therefore, we have learnt to film the video and then import the video onto the computer straight away. During the lipsyncing video, some members of the group learnt that we had to film at least a minute for each shot to successfully edit the video.

Audience:

The audience that we want to target is 14 to 19 year olds and mainly female. We decided to choose this target audience because the music of the song is a typical mainstream pop song, which would be aimed at mid - schoolers who would listen to this sort of music based on what other people are listening too, e.g. pop being a mainstream genre. Therefore, the psychographic of the target audience would be that they are interested in fashion, magazines and social sites which links to the idea of the target audience doing everything based on what's popular at the time.

Treatment : Outline of video sequence

This is the treatment for the music video song that our group have decided to do. Linking to the annotations of the lyrics, the treatment below is the outline of how our music video will look and the foundations that we will follow in adding more detail to it in terms of camera angles and specific places to film.

Treatment plan

We printed out a copy of the song "Kiss'n'Tell" by Kesha and we decided to annotate the copy. We decided what things we shall do on certain points of the song such as what happens to the narrative and how it progresses. 

Idea response:

Tash M,


Yes, our artist definitely needs something unique about her that the audience can relate to and notice. How about something relating to her hair or her makeup? Maybe a pattern or style that can be put on her face? Or her hair can be made really outrageous of some sort?


Also, we need to start thinking of suitable names for the artist? We need to make sure that its feminine, catchy and sounds unique like many pop artists in the industry.

Ideas

Hey Tasha D,
I was thinking of the kind of image that we want our artist to have. How about a care free girl who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go for it. Also, a theme is needed, like you know how Kesha's theme is glitter and Lady Gaga uses themes to make herself iconic.


What do you think?

Meeting: Treatment for song

We are having a meeting about the song we are planning to do "Kiss'n'Tell" by Kesha. We decided to do the song because there currently is no video for it. We are deciding where we can shoot the video, the amount of people we need and the different camera shots we are going to use at certain points in the song. For us to fulfill this, we are annotating a copy of the songs lyrics and deciding what to do at certain points
