So it begins..

I have created this blog to document the advanced portfolio task of my A level course which will show the progression and different stages that our group will undertake in construction of our music video. My group consists of my class members Georgina Kerwin, Joanna Sibley and Paul Healey whom I have studied media studies with for the last 3 years.

As a group we have chosen to create a music video as we believe that our skills and personal qualities will best excel in this specific task. In Monday’s lesson we brainstormed ideas for songs that we could create a music video for, we then narrowed our choices down in stages choosing our particular favorites. Out of the four chosen songs that we narrowed it down too, we then researched the lyrics of the particular songs and brainstormed narratives for each of these songs. This enabled us to realistically think about concepts, how narratives would fit for each song and the codes and conventions that we would have to consider. In our next lesson, we hope to choose our song that we want to create a music video for after doing some background research in our independent study.
