The Introduction





My name is Dana Millard and I attend Parkstone Grammar School, currently completing my final year of A-levels, doing Media, Theatre and English Language. For our A2 coursework, Sophie and I decided to do a promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with a cover for its release as part of a DigiPak and a magazine advertisement for the DigiPak. My group consists of just myself and Sophie Goode, who I believe is extremely co-operative and hardworking. Meaning we will work well as a team as well as having a passion for music and film, which will help us throw different ideas together, to make a successful production.

To begin our filming process, we must research many different music videos, throughout different periods of time, such as, Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is considered the first music video and in the 1960s: The Beatles made a cartoon video, 1970s: Top of the Pops was aired and 1980s: saw the release of MTV which showed various music videos and had a profound impact on the music industry.

During our research the different conventions we should be analysing are – camera angles, sound (digetic and non digetic), mise en scene, and editing. By examining these genres we will be able to determine which we wish to base our music video on.
