Lauren and I recently interviewed 5 members of our target audience, to give us a better understanding of what they would expect from a music video of the pop genre. The information we received was very useful, as we gained a better insight of our target audiences expectations. Some of the people we interviewed had contrasting views on what they would like to see, including the colour grading we would use. Many wanted to see monotone shades of black and white to mirror the singers feelings and lyrics, whilst others wanted to see bright colours to make the video more visually appealing. Despite this we will take both ideas into consideration when making our music video. We found when interviewing our target audience, all of them wanted to see an element of dance to reflect the ideas presented in the lyrics. We will therefore defiantly incorporate this into our final music video.

When filming we made sure we used our storyboard so we knew exactly what we were creating, however we also filmed extra shots incase they were needed in the editing stages. These are some photos of Lauren and I whilst filming our first shots.

When analysing their album cover I firstly looked at the colours, which had a simple yet aesthetically pleasing colour scheme of light pink, blue and white. Although these colours are not typically associated with rock music they amplify the album name 'Wonderful, wonderful'. Furthermore when considering the album is rock I was also surprised by image on the album- a hand holding a shell with the blurred unfocused background appearing to be a beach. When reading the magazines target profile it stated that it 'delivers a monthly dose of iconic photography to an audience of extremely passionate music consumers'. The photography in this particular album directs the audiences attention to the focus point of the image- the light pink shell which seems to cont...
