Our chosen song

The song that Jack and I have decided to create a music promo for is a song called 'Fun' by Ryan Helman.


This song is in the pop rock genre and fits into the many songs we have researched. For example, McFly - That Girl and Rihanna - Cheers (Drink To That). Being a pop rock song, the conventions used which are typically in a pop rock video are the instruments and the way the song is laid out such as narrative and performance. Also, how it uses both pop and rock conventions and mixes them into one.



This is just evidence that we contacted Ryan and asked his permission to use his song. His response was 'Good Luck, Ryan' and sent us both the lyrics and the track to work from.

From this we are now able to research and create plans of how to set out a music promo is this song.




















summarise groupings

Last year, when creating a thriler opening for AS Media Studies, one of the students with whom I worked with was Jack Coley.

This year, I am woking with Jack again, and we have simular ideas when it comes to brainstorming what could be in a music video, as well as all of the other tasks we have to complete together.

We have already decided on the song choice together and know what each of our roles with be within the music promo.

Throughout most of the song Jack will be performing as the main character and me (Hayley) will be filming. This is convenient for both the song and the video.
